Quite obvious when you look at all the facts.
Based on this hint would it also be safe to assume that Gerbils (or any rodent except for a Capybara) are not a valid power source again this year? When is the GDC going to let me use my Alvin powered robot?

Now, now, you forget one thing. There are a lot of engineers who would probably love to get a ride somewhere. Therefore, it's the engineers who get delivered... (And tracking Dave's Hawaiian shirts gives a 20 point bonus!)

People Eating Tasty Animals? No one said anything about eating the cats. Just stuffing them into baskets.

Yeah, Obama did say there would have to be someone to keep an eye on those robots in case they try something. That still doesn't explain the Cats in basket idea.

I've got it! The katz name is, 'Heck' and he appears to be in a handbasket. Hmmm... :p

No No No, the cat is both alive and dead. This game will have to do with radioactive particles.

The conversation that happened after I showed that comment to our programmer and our strategy leader:
"So the game is going to involve radioactive particles"
"Radioactive particles...so water game?"
"Heavy water!" *continues to mutter to himself about neutrons and transporting things*

Can't be his cat, because you can see it.

Re: Is It a Hint or Not?
 
You can see part of the cat but I would bet you that you cannot prove that this cat is indeed alive nor can I prove that it is dead so the principle should still apply.
