Colossal invites canines and felines far and wide to compete in the America's Favorite Pet Competition (AFP)
PHOENIX, Dec. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- With great pride and anticipation, Colossal, the global leader in fundraising for charities through online competitions, announces that the 2024 America's Favorite Pets will star on the cover of Modern Cat and Modern Dog, respectively, for the first time ever! These publications are packed with expert advice, heartwarming stories, and adorable features. This elevation and several other boosts make the competition pawsitively compelling for all competitors who join the friendly community that celebrates our furry friends. Along with the cover of North America's top lifestyle magazine for pet people, America's Favorite Pets will get a two-page feature inside the magazines. Their humans will pocket $10,000 each (one cat and one dog), and the animals themselves will receive gifts from the AFP sponsors.
"This is one of Colossal's flagship competitions and a personal favorite of mine. I am enamored with our four-legged friends (of which I have several) and can't wait to see all the sweet faces that join this year. We are so excited about this year's AFP Competition and all the extras we have planned, but I'm especially delighted that our 2024 America's Favorite Pets will get to strut their stuff on the cover of Modern Cat and Modern Dog magazines," said Colossal CEO Mary Hagen.
While there can only be one champion named Top Dog and Top Cat, all the competitors will assuredly take joy in this year's star-studded guest appearances, which are sure to get some tails wagging. Emmy-winning actor Eric Stonestreet, renowned for his iconic portrayal of Cam on "Modern Family" and the animated voice behind Max in "The Secret Life of Pets", and his beloved canine companion Roscoe will be offering a sneak peek into the celebrity dog lifestyle and, of course, a glimpse into Stonstreet's own world.
The whisker-twitching excitement doesn't stop there. Enter the feline phenomenon, Nala Cat, an internet sensation and beloved celebrity in her own right. With millions captivated by her adorable antics and irresistible charm, Nala Cat's human will share invaluable insights during the competition about turning one's cherished companion into a star.
Beyond the pursuit of furball fame, pet owners are also contributing to an important cause. Colossal is proud to continue supporting the Progressive Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) and champion its mission to help cats, dogs, and wild animals thrive in happy, healthy homes or natural habitats. In the 2023 competition, Colossal raised over $3.2 million to benefit PAWS and help unite families with cats and dogs, nurture wildlife in need, and foster positive change for countless creatures.
