Any cat owner knows that no matter what you order online, as long as the item comes in a box, the fun is guaranteed. 

Our curious furry friends can turn any cardboard box into total play. 

With that in mind, the new campaign by the Brazilian ad agency, AlmapBBDO, presents the Curiosity Boxes! 

In a partnership with Petlove, Brazil's number-one online pet supplies shop, customers get a free Curiosity Box with a purchase of 40 single pouches. Each box will turn into a rocket, airplane, or submarine. Tutors can follow on-box setup instructions and readily start the cat play.

"Cats are ever curious. They love exploring new places and an empty box is full of possibilities. This inspired the team to think of giving a plain cardboard box a new twist, turning it into a playful object. That's how an online WHISKAS® buy becomes an even more rewarding experience to cats", says Marcelo Nogueira, ECD at AlmapBBDO.

What a brilliant idea! 

Leon, a handsome stray cat in Brazil, was out in a storm and decided to seek shelter at the OAB building (which is equivalent to the American Bar Association). 

Little did Leon know his life was about to change forever... because he officially became employed! 

This isn't the first time we're seeing cats being officially employed, but this is the first feline lawyer we've heard about! 

Congrats Leon!

We all like to think that people will never forget where they came from. That after making it anywhere in life, they will always give back and be humble too. That they will remember what their struggles were...That exactly how Lana the dog acts.

A Brazilian stray dog had quite a tough life on the street that left him with no exercise and extra helpings of unhealthy food.

Once ridiculed for his 80 pounds as he made his way around with great difficulty due to bad joints and breathing problems, the committed canine has a new leash lease on life.
