In December 2013, the cats at Purrfect Pals received an amazing holiday gift from our generous friends at Purina: The news that we would be receiving a donation of 100,000 (yes, one hundred thousand!) cans of Friskies cat food! Even better, we had two very special rescue cats to thank for the donation: Oskar and Klaus!
As part of their “If You Feed Me” holiday promotion, Purina and Friskies selected five internet celebrity cats to promote canned food for kitties. Each spokescat, (including Oskar the Blind Cat, Colonel Meow and Grumpy Cat) was asked to choose one deserving cat rescue organization to be the recipient of the 100,000 cans of food. Oskar, who recently moved to the Seattle area with his buddy Klaus (and their owners, Mick and Bethany Szydlowski), wanted the food to go to a no-kill facility with plenty of hungry mouths to feed. We were ecstatic to be selected, and by a cat as famous as Oskar!
