SO MANY QUESTIONS about this ad that pops up on my Facebook feed.
First and foremost, WHO KEEPS THEIR LITTER BOX IN THE LIVING ROOM? I don’t care how fancy it is, and this one is fancy…like $500 fancy. It promised no odor, which I am sure is the reason it is right next to her sofa.
I assume this is her house, and they are on a date. I mean, maybe they are married, but they seem far too interested in each other to be married. (That sounds mean…but really, once you’re middle aged and married, you just don’t sit like that anymore, do you? No. You may sit and watch TV comfortably together, or you may sit and talk about whatever interests you, but I have never seen a middle aged married couple sit like this.)
I assume this is her house because the cat is on her lap. What if it’s his house? What if she is allergic to cats? What now? Get out lady!
This really is a terrible ad. I mean, I get what they think they’re trying to convey: that there’s no odor. But the rest is ridiculous.
If they’re trying to imply that it’s for elite/classy people to defend its price tag, putting the woman in a little black dress and heels isn’t getting it done. The couch looks saggy and dated, and the artwork looks like it belongs in a motel. The man is sporting a fresh haircut, but he’s a bit underdressed compared to her. He is married–I see his ring–but they definitely don’t look married to each other for the reasons you mention. Are they at her party? The kitten looks miserable enough that there could be a room full of people out of frame.
What kind of woman has a party with the litter box in the room? What kind of pet parent forces her new kitten to be at a noisy party where female guests are wearing high heels?
This is outrageous. Report this to the ASPCA at once.
I’ve never seen this ad. Why is the litter box in the living room? And that sofa… I don’t know what to make of it… very 1980s. I get repetitive ads on IG but nothing as confusing as this one.

Nance, I love that you are ALL IN for the poor cat! I hadn’t really noticed how miserable it looked until now.

Ally, it’s horrific, isn’t it? My main question of course is why they have that huge horrible litter box in the living room. Blah.

Hey, J–just wanted to let you know that as of yesterday (Monday, 13 Dec.), I am out. #whamageddon.

HA! I hope you enjoyed it! I have been downtown a couple of times, I was sure it was going to happen, but so far, I’m safe.
