     Puppy Bowl XVI kicks off with a furry group of line barkers and wide retrievers, making adorable fumbles and tumbles in an effort to score winning touchdowns for Team Ruff and Team Fluff.  For the ninth year in a row, America's favorite "Rufferee," Dan Schachner, returns to call the puppy penalties, furry fumbles and terrier touchdowns. Five of this years pups have special needs but are so adorable and need a loving home. As always, viewers are ready for a cuteness overload from the official PUPPY BOWL XVI cheerleaders, a trio energetic baby pygmy goat and a trio of playful armadillos, who root for their favorite team while shaking their pom poms on the sidelines!

There’s no other way to celebrate 16 years of animal adoptions than with an unforgettable performance by legendary divas Jenni-PURRLopez & CAT-ira, who will arrive to the GEICO stadium in a decked-out limousine to give Animal Planet audiences a special rendition of ‘Catnips Don’t Lie!’At the end of the performance, viewers will even be able to see an adoption update on where these talented & sassy felines found their forever homes.

     The Kitten Bowl starts Super Bowl Sunday off at 2pm on the Hallmark Channel. Beth Stern again hosts the big showdown from Hallmark Channel Stadium, featuring adoptable "cat-letes" playing with cat toys, taking cat naps and generally behaving like the adorable fluffballs they are. Beth has fostered countless animals in need while working to find animals homes, and she’s excited that the 2020 Kitten Bowl will highlight the cathlete’s personal stories. There are more than 100 rescued kittens in this year's event, breaking down to 25 on four teams. The teams consist of the Courageous Cougars, the Last Hope Lions, the Little Longtails and the North Shore Bengals.This year's players competing for the "National Championship of Feline Football" trophy include kittens rescued from recent natural disasters.

Older Cats that need good homes.
     An estimated 50 million viewers will be watching Puppy Bowl XVI and over 25 million viewers will watch the Kitty Bowl VII.  Major sponsors who purchase commercial time for these Bowls must also commit to being sponsors and advertise all year round with all programming on these channels. Puppy Bowl XV official sponsors include ARM & HAMMER™ Clump & Seal™, BISSELL®, CHEWY, GEICO, PEDIGREE®, THE HOME DEPOT, SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC., TEMPTATIONS™, WARNER BROS. PICTURES, and WISDOM PANEL™ canine DNA test kits.   Kitty Bowl IV official sponsors include Meow Mix and Allegra ,Subaru, Liberty Mutual Insurance, and Pet Smart just to name a few . All the puppies and kittens are available to be adopted right after the Bowls air on television through the shelters and some are even adopted by staffers of the events.  My favorite part is seeing how cute all the kittens are as well as how well the puppies play together and knowing that all my friends will get adopted and go to good homes to be with their new families. So if after watching the Kitten Bowl and Puppy Bowl you decide you or you and your family is looking for a kitten or cat, puppy or a dog, please visit the animal shelters in your area and pick out a new family member. Remember to always have your Cats and Dogs spayed and neutered.
