Needed a refill for the neighborhood kitty food bin, so went out and
bought some Meow Mix today, and found a CD for Meow TV inside.

First time I'd heard or seen anything about it, but from reading on
the press link guess it's been around for about a year. Looks like
there may be some interesting. Also a couple video clips, one a cute
public service announcement about neutering and the other just clips
from the Meow TV episode.

Be warned though, it took quite a while to download on my system with
52 modem.


Just a followup to my OP. On the http://www.meowmix.com/ page to you
can download a Felix like virtual cat (sorry, I think it's another
Windows only program). You can change the color of the cat (can you
believe they don't have tuxedo as a choice!?!), have it meow, and when
you right click on the cat you can make it play, brush it, take a nap
or feed it. The girls ignored the meow, but Rocky perked up and looked
around the first time - after that no one paid any attention. I have
it running right now, and looks like Felix does more on his own. This
one mainly walks around, jumps once in a while, lick its foot every so
often, and uses the litterbox.


It's also a more stylized, less "realistic" looking cat. I like Felix
better.
