KAYTEE pairs up with Marc Morrone

Small animal pet owners are special people, like you.

If you have a pet, you know that your furry or feathered companion is a very important part of the family. Your pet has a personality. The name you chose fits perfectly. Your special pet has favorite foods and treats and you love to spend time together. The antics and occasional quirky behavior of your pet always makes you smile. Those are the reasons why you want a pet, or why you already enjoy the companionship of your special friend.

If you want to be a small animal pet owner, it’s important to choose the best pet for you. We’ll help. And if you already have a special pet, we can help you take good care of your best friend.

The KAYTEE sponsored Pet Ownership Campaign launched on June 23 with a coast-to-coast Satellite Media Tour hosted by Marc Morrone. Marc took our pet ownership message public through media interviews across the country which were broadcast from his Pet Store in New York. He visited live with news staffs of approximately 20 news stations and recorded a dozen video vignettes called “Pocket Pets with Marc Morrone.” He explained the personalities of individual small pet animals and birds to help parents choose the right pet for their children and to emphasize how easy and inexpensive it is to care for them. These videos were sent to180 television outlets nationwide for broadcast.

Here Marc talks with children about the responsiblities of pet ownership. This was an event held at the Wisconsin State Fair.
