Here’s a Cat ‘Survival Guide’ for the Big Game
Cat-food brand Friskies will air an ad during the Big Game, for the first time ever. As part of an ongoing partnership with social news property BuzzFeed, Friskies will release the newest installment of the Dear Kitten series, titled “Dear Kitten: Regarding the Big Game.”
Airing during the broadcast in select markets, this will mark the first time that both BuzzFeed and Friskies have advertised during the Big Game.
In this 60 second commercial, the all-knowing Cat returns to impart wisdom on Kitten about the Big Game and how to survive amidst humans’ weird game-day behavior.
