Animal Planet has issued a response to the Kitten Bowl news. “You’ve GOT to be kitten me!” reads the statement. “With the record-breaking success of Animal Planet’s Puppy Bowl, our famous Kitty Half-Time Show and the huge viewership for our new live Kitten Cam, we’re not surprised by a ‘copy cat. After all, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. We’re just happy that pet adoption is being promoted and more animals are finding their fur-ever homes.”

Next a hamster or a guinea pig show, pretty soon people will ‘forget’ to watch the superbowl itself.
