contents We describe some dynamical properties of one parameter families of billiards on convex curves (ovals) which are deformed by the curvature (curve-shortening) flow. We obtain the bifurcations of the period two orbits and some special non-Birkhoff orbits, the normal periodic orbits. We prove the destruction of non-convex caustics of the ellipse by deforming it through the curvature flow.
