They say it’s impossible to keep a straight face in front of a kitten, so imagine a bunch of them playing football. To get you ready for SuperBowl Sunday or SoPurr Bowl Sunday we have the purrfectly funny #DearKitten video Regarding the Big Game. BuzzFeed and Friskies are teaming up to air a unique ad spot and next chapter in the popular Dear Kitten series. For this installment, Cat will provide Kitten with the ultimate “survival guide” for the Big Game. If you’re like me and can’t get enough of the Dear Kitten wit and wisdom, here’s the extended 3 minute version. or the 1 minute version.

We won’t tell you if we’re rooting for the Patriots or the Seahawks but we will say we’re rooting for #TeamCat and not #TeamDog. Okay, we can’t resist the cute puppies but we’re all about cats and the Kitten Bowl. In two short years, “Kitten Bowl” has become an American institution.

“Kitten Bowl II” premieres on Hallmark Channel and hosted by Beth Stern, with play-by-play announcing from John Sterling and Mary Carillo. Kitten Bowl II” brings together celebrities across all facets of the entertainment world to cheer on the kittens as they compete in the games.

News scoop! As Tara The Hero Cat’s behaviorist, I’m thrilled to announce she’ll be making a special appearance during the Kitten Bowl.

Hallmark Channel’s Happy The Cat, a lovable rescue who serves as the network’s ambassador, will make a highly anticipated appearance at “Kitten Bowl II.

But it’s not all fun and games. Hallmark Channel has once again partnered with North Shore Animal League America and Last Hope Animal Rescue and Rehabilitation for “Kitten Bowl II” and ALL 92 kittens who played the game this year were adopted into loving forever homes! “Kitten Bowl” is part of Hallmark Channel’s evergreen corporate initiative, “Pet Project,” a multi-faceted initiative devoted to celebrating pets,bringing light to the plight of shelter pets and the incredible joy adopting a pet can bring to our lives.

Loved all the video clips and information! It’s fantastic that all of those kittens got adopted! That’s the right way to promote animal welfare… are you listening, #GoDaddyPuppy?

We don’t have cable or the Hallmark channel but hopefully will be able to see other clips of the kitten bowl where they’re available. The little “snippets” are so adorable to see though – such darling little guys having fun.

Hugs, Sammy and Mom

That is awesome that Tara is making an appearance at the Kitten Bowl – that is the ONLY show that has a chance of being watched here, since the humans both loathe sports and especially football!

Well we are supposed to get snow on Sunday so I’ll be home on the couch with Ellie Mae O’Cat. We could not get Hallmark last year and are so excited to have it this year! Can’t wait for Kitten Bowl and we love Tara the Hero Cat so that is an extra treat! We will probably still watch the Puppy Bowl and kitten half time show as well. We are not very excited about the Super Bowl this year as our teams were done well before the play offs.
