Now you know....

A while ago I saw an advert for kittens by people who had even named their "kitten company." They stated one of their kittens had been used in an advert for a university and they weren't lying. I was so incensed I emailed the university informing them that as an establishment purporting to encourage higher education, I'd have thought they'd put more thought into where they got the star of their advert and used a shelter kitten, hence subconsciously raising awareness.

They emailed back stating they hadn't even considered it from that aspect.

Someone is selling a pair of ginger kittens, saying they have been used in  a go-cat advert  :Crazy: - they are asking £200 for the pair  :Crazy: - it says they were vet checked before making the ad. I often wonder what became of the cats you seen on packs of cat food  :tired:
