Cat Chow? brand cat food for one cat, and have their cat relationship story told through a Purina Cat Chow brand online video. The winners? videos will be shared online with the Purina Cat Chow Community on Facebook, YouTube and Twitter.

?We believe the best stories come from real life, and every day we are inspired by the stories shared by our cat-owning community,? said Vincent Biroscak, Purina Cat Chow brand director. ?The Purina Cat Chow Real Stories Project furthers our commitment to unite the community of cat owners by collecting and celebrating their cat-relationship stories. Every cat owner has a story unique to them and their cat.?

Purina Cat Chow is committed to telling and highlighting the real stories of everyday cat people. Purina Cat Chow recently launched a new national TV advertising campaign inspired by stories of real-life cat owners and new product packaging featuring five owners and their cats.

To enter the Contest, cat people are invited to complete an online entry form, select a theme that best describes their story, options include: My First Cat, Why I?m a Cat Person, Forever a Cat Family, How We Found Each Other, Generations of Care, Always There for Me, and Memories.

The Purina Cat Chow Real Stories Project is looking for stories about the comfort, support, friendship and connection that describe the cat-owner relationship ? from head butt greetings-at-the-door moments to the way she wakes you up in the morning.
