Opt to Adopt

I looooove this pro-adoption advert from the ASPCA:


Video Description: A medium-length coated ginger tabby cat sits in a modern, minimally-appointed apartment, bopping its head along to a dubstep track. Dan Harris, a young white male reporter on ABC's Nightline, stands in the kitchen, drinking a cup of coffee from a mug with the cat's picture on it. Text Onscreen: "DAN HARRIS: ANCHOR/REPORTER." He grabs his keys and walks out of the apartment. The cat watches him leave. Text Onscreen: "GEORGE THE CAT." George begins to dance. Text Onscreen: "HOVERCAT." George hovers in the air and begins to dance. He takes a break to eat from a bowl labeled "Hovercat." He jumps and hovers over the bed. Bops his head. Mews. Hovers. Dances. HOVERCAT! As Dan comes home through the door, George falls into his arms. George purrs. Dan pets him affectionately, then sets him on the floor. The music starts again and George flies back into the air. Text Onscreen, between Dan drinking coffee and George hover-dancing: "Millions of viral videos waiting to be adopted." George bops his head and mews. His face morphs into a series of faces of cats and dogs waiting to be rescued. Text Onscreen: "Dan's cat was adopted."

June is adopt a shelter cat month. Visit the ASPCA to learn more.
