This is what a friend of mine just wrote:
Okay, I heard their current radio commercial, and it is anti-cat! The gist is, "Oh, no, it is Secret Santa time, and you got Karl. You know, Karl with kittens on his computer screen, kittens pictures on his wall, and kitten ears on his car. Buy him a XXXX-brand wrench set instead, and help him "man up." And maybe he can use them to take the %^&%& cat ears off his car."
I was appalled! Plenty of "real men" love cats. There's nothing wrong with a man liking cats. Or kittens. Tell Napa this is just plain wrong!!!! I think we should all protest! Grre hiss - Napa - Real Men Like Cats!
Yes, I have a sense of humor, this just isn't funny! It is as sexist as well!
I agree. I think this commercial has an undercurrent, or undertone, which suggests it is OK to abuse cats. This should NOT be on the air! I sent in a message, Here is the link to their online contact page:
I had to put it as "Other." Yes I did use my real name, email and phone, I may regret that if they mine contacts for emails lol.
