Coexisting peacefully with a cat is a matter of compromise, but most pet owners have come to accept that they’re usually the ones making sacrifices. After all, the beloved felines are too busy with their all-day job of being cute.

In its latest campaign, Mars cat food brand Sheba pokes fun at the major life adjustments that feline lovers are willing to make for their furry friends. “You’ll Do Anything For a Kitten,” created by U.K. agency AMV BBDO, marks the release of the brand’s new Perfect Portionism Wet Kitten Food.

With a recent survey by Sheba indicating that as many as 1 in 4 Gez Z owners are allergic to their cats, a series of humorous shorts depict the devotion of various cat parents. The videos end with shots of the weeping, swollen, obviously allergic owners gazing at their fluffy kittens with adoration.

The sacrifices we make for love

“New kitten parents go through great lengths to earn their cat’s affection,” said Jean-Paul Jansen, vice president of marketing at Mars Petcare. “That’s why the Sheba brand has expanded its cat food offerings with Sheba Perfect Portions Wet Kitten Food, allowing pet parents to give cats what they want from the start.”

The Sheba Kitten meals come in Savory Chicken and Delicate Salmon flavors and are intended to be easy to chew and nutritious for growing kittens. They will be available at retailers such as Amazon, Chewy, Walmart and PetSmart.

The campaign will run on social media, as well as on out-of-home screens near large pharmacies in New York City.
