A happy ASPCA commercial!

TV commercials about shelter pets make me cry. My husband has figured this out, and whenever he sees one come on, he changes the channel. They are so well crafted with sad music, a pleading celebrity, and adorable faces of dogs and cats.

The interesting question is, do the commercials work? I guess since they're still running on TV. Anything that helps spread awareness is a good thing, and playing on people's emotions is probably effective.

This ad is a completely different matter. Does it make me want to run to the shelter and pick up all the cats and dogs? Oh yes. Does it make me cry? Maybe, but for a different reason than weeping over people's cruelty.

Wake County ASPCA did a great job!
