Friskies: Adventureland

When this ad aired during the Olympics I thought it was fabulous. Anyone that has had cats in their lives understands their world is totally their own. They get to play, eat, sleep, do their own thang. The ad is playful, colorful, inventive, truly creative. A new twist to cat food ads. Refreshing. For those that only see this ad as “trippy” — wanting some of that cat food for their “own trip,” you’re missing the point. Just let yourself enjoy the visual ride on TV. Also, I don’t fault Purina for unveiling the ad right before the new Tim Burton movie “Alice in Wonderland.” Genius marketing. Purina is having the last laugh because we are all talking about it. ! p.s. My husband hates cats, but he loved the ad.
