This Cat Is Running For President And Wants YOUR Pet As VP

Morris the Cat, the famous orange tabby spokescat for 9Lives who started life as a shelter resident in Illinois, has announced his candidacy for President of the United States and is now searching for the perfect running mate among America’s pets. This marks Morris’ fourth presidential run after campaigns in 1988, 1992, and 2012, and this time he’s offering pet owners the chance to nominate their dogs or cats to join his ticket as Vice President with a platform focused on pet adoption advocacy and animal welfare. His five key pawlicies include the Right to Pros-Purr ensuring every pet deserves a good home, health, and food, plus the revolutionary proposal that cat naps should be acceptable 24/7 under the Keeping the Cat in Domesticated initiative.

The nomination period runs through mid-September, with 9Lives representatives selecting finalists based on originality, alignment with Morris’ pawlicies, inspiring stories, and vice presidential prowess before the public votes to decide the winner. The grand prize winning pet will receive a $1,000 check and the ability to award $35,000 to an animal shelter of their choice, equal to half a million 9Lives meals, making this campaign about far more than adorable photos and clever puns. Morris believes that with the right cattitude, anything is pawsible, even cats and dogs getting along in perfect harmony, and his candidacy puts proper focus on the importance of pet adoption by celebrating his own journey from shelter cat to celebrity spokescat. This might be the only political campaign where everyone actually wins, especially the shelter animals who will benefit from the attention and donations this playful race generates.
