Reality kitties

I wonder if this will screen here? We get Animal Planet. I'm a fan! :)

Ten cats in search of owners will spend the next 10 days in a New York store window, their every move caught on camera for a reality TV show on which they will compete for best sleeper and mouse-catcher.

The show is the creation of a petfood company and will be shown on cable channel Animal Planet, as well as on the Web site www.MeowMixHouse.com where viewers will be asked to vote off one feline contestant each day.

The cats, chosen from shelters around the country, will compete for loudest purr, most prolific sleeper and who can catch the most toy mice. Kitties who get the boot will be adopted into permanent homes.

Obviously, the goal here is to sell cat food. But I love the fact that kitties booted off will go to new homes. Fantastic. And the winner? The winning kiitty will become "Feline Vice President of Research and Development," responsible for taste testing and product feedback. I LOVE that.


Haha. Can't wait!
