Crappy commercial - cat abuse
Anyone see the crappy Energizer commercial where the brat almost puts
the cat in the dryer? NOT funny! If you want to complain about it, please follow this link: (http://www.energizer.com/contact/default.asp) thanks, -L. |

Here is the comment I sent to Energiser:
"I think the commercial regarding the little brat that almost puts the cat in a dryer is in VERY poor taste, is giving other brats suggestions that could lead to the horrible death of a beloved pet, and should be pulled immediately from production." Here is the answer I got from them: "In response to concerns regarding one of Energizer's new spots in which a mother intervenes on behalf of the family cat to keep him out of harms way: 'Our new spots depict how every day people overcome life's daily challenges to keep going. In the case of the mother of four young children, she moves through the house with baby in arms to break up a food fight, end an art project on the wall, disrupt a gymnastics display on the couch and rescue the family cat. It is all in a day's work for a busy mom. Through it all she keeps her cool and keeps going. We apologize if we have offended anyone with this spot. We wanted to show how much of a hero moms can be. These commercials were filmed in New Zealand and the Humane Society of New Zealand was invited to be present during the filling. At no time was the cat mistreated and all proper care was maintained at all times.'" Now does that sound like they even read what I wrote??? I didn't express concern about the treatment of the cat (which I am sure was just fine), I expressed concern about the message this commercial was sending and they totally ignored that in their response.

No, it doesn't. It does sound exactly like the answer I got though, in fact my answer was identical. Don't these people use their brains? Someone must have said at some early point in the process, "Is that scene really a good idea?" I suppose it was a matter of 'corporate think'. Once the ball really got rolling, no one had the nerve to speak up against it any more. Regards and Purrs, O J |
