Keep Love Strong Advertising Campaign

The  Keep Love Strong advertising campaign that began last  November  features heart-warming ads inspired by real stories. The campaign has been so well received that Iams created  this contest to find the very best Love Tails about the special connections people share with their animals.  These commercials really show the deep connection and the importance of the human animal bond.  I like them all but this is one of my favorites.

This is one of my favorites:

The super bowl is this Sunday and this is a great day for snacking and snoozing on the sofa with my dad.  In addition to the football game and the commercials, there is Super Dog Sunday™ hosted by our good friends at Event Barkers.  You know Event Barkers from the super terrific job they do hosting our Red Carpet Cat Events!

Cat Crashes Super Dog Sunday

I got so excited  when Paris from dogtipper.com told me about this great event to help find forever homes for our cousins that I asked if a cat could crash the party and she said, I didn’t have to crash, that cats are welcome too! So I am calling all cats to enter to help our cousins in need of loving homes.

Vote Cat and Support Great American Heroes, our Veterans

Is America a Cat Country or a Dog Country?

Team Cat

Across our country, one debate continues long after the election is over.  Passionate Pet Parents wonder, “Is America a Cat Country or a Dog Country?”  We cats already know this answer, but we must exercise patience and wait for our canine friends to catch on.  They can’t help it they are a bit slower. They are too busy playing fetch and performing tricks for snacks to realize that cats have already taken over the country.

We cats like to tease our dog friends, but the truth is both dogs and cats give humans unconditional love, companionship, connection and a sense of purpose. Cats and dogs are also good for our human’s mental, emotional and physical health. There are  studies that prove we cats and dogs too  can lower stress, blood pressure and anxiety.

For Every Vote Purina will donate $1 to Pet Partners’ Veteran Programs

Early Voting Click Here

Now we can prove to the dogs that cats rule, and help support our great American heroes, our veterans at the same time!  Pet Partners’ veteran programs support America’s veterans, connecting them to dogs and cats so they can experience the real mental, physical and emotional benefits animals can provide.  The donation Purina will make on behalf of voters in America’s Pet Debate will help fund visits to veterans from therapy animal teams.

That’s why for every vote in America’s Pet Debate, Purina will donate $1 to Pet Partners’ veteran programs, up to $100,000.  Let’s rally together and get our friends and neighbors voting to help our veterans with this  meaningful effort!

If Cat People are Crazy, Dog People are Ditzy!

Why are cat lovers called crazy?

Lazy Leopard and Gracey

Lazy Leopard and Gracey

Lazy Leopard and I have to get this off our chests.  We are tired of the term Crazy being used to describe humans that love and care for cats.  Why crazy? I understand that the words flow, I too am a fan of alliteration.  The Tiniest Tiger™,  Conservation Cub Club™, feline finesse™, you see what I mean?   But why the word crazy?  Let’s take a look at the definition of crazy that I copied from my Dictionary (version 2.1.3 (80.4)) on my iMac.
