Humane Society Video: Just Try to Look Away!

The video encourages cat adoptions and already has nearly half a million hits.

One of the greatest things in life is seeing people come together for a good cause. I see so many remarkable and seemingly impossible things reach fruition when people with like minds join together to make a difference. I am a firm believer we can all impact this world positively, large or small, if we follow our dreams and lend a helping hand along the way.

 Just today, Carrie Libera of the shared with me an outstanding public service announcement produced by a local visual effects company. The guys behind the video are proud Animal Humane Society adopters and as you’ll find out through your own eyes, noble animal lovers. They were inspired to do something creative to help the growing cat crisis in the community after reading a story in Animal Tracks.

By reaching out to the shelter and expressing their interest in trying to make a difference in the lives of cats, they were able to film the many adorable cats and kittens in need of homes to create a powerful video last November.
