With so much going on in the world today, it’s important to enjoy moments of light-heartedness – starting with the little things cats do that make us smile. Felix - It’s Great To Be A Cat is a fun, playful campaign that is backed by big media investment, and I’m delighted we can finally share the tune I’ve been singing in my head for months!”
