Greenies Brand and PetCo To Help Kitties Care For Their Teeth! And...BONUS GIVE-AWAY for Cat Bloggers Only!

Hi everyone it's Cody! Mom taught me since I was a little kit about how impawtant it is to make sure that my teeth are in tip-top condition.

 I am lucky because "Dr.Smiley" says that genetically I seem to just have inherited great teeth! Some cats aren't as lucky.

My Grandpa Bobo had to have his teeth cleaned at least once a year because he always had gingivitis.

 Too often Mom and I are reading about kitties having to have their teeth pulled (ouch!).  We have featured our buddy Mario twice on our blog, he doesn't have any teeth at all. Our buddy Charlie recently joined the toothless kitty club as well.

The other day Mom and I learned about a super event being held by Greenies and PetCo. Since I was adopted from an adoption event at PetCo., I am especially excited to feature this! Our friend Carol Bryant (many of you met her at BlogPaws 2012) wrote this piece for  http://www.petpr.com, Carol was kind enough to give us purrmission to share it with all of you!

GREENIES Brand and PETCO Partner for Pet Dental Health

Editor Carol Bryant

The third annual GREENIES Pet Oral Health Event has been announced by PETCO and GREENIES. The event will take place at Petco stores nationwide on Saturday, August 4, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and Sunday, August 5 from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m.

GREENIES brand representatives plan to be present to answer questions pet owners might have while visiting select PETCO stores. Dr. Jan Bellows, incoming president of the American Veterinary Dental College, shared, “Pet parents must realize that pets are not that different from humans in that they require daily oral care. The GREENIES Pet Oral Health Event is a great opportunity for pet parents to become more informed on how to care for their pets' mouths at home, and when and why they should seek the advice of their veterinarian."

PETCO operates over 1,100 stores across the country with 30 Unleashed by Petco locations, which are smaller format neighborhood shops. The official website of Petco is www.petco.com.

GREENIES are manufactured by the Nutro Company, which has been making pet food for over 80 years. Some of the Nutro brands include MAX, NATURAL CHOICE and ULTRA pet food in addition to the GREENIES brands, PILL POCKETS treats and GREENIES JointCare Canine treats.

 Now...on to the GIVE-AWAY!!

This give-away is open to CAT BLOGGERS ONLY....why? I'll tell you.

As many of you know, I have food allergies. I can't eat all sorts of things that other kitties can eat namely: corn, wheat, dairy, chicken (and the list goes on). I can't have fish flavor if it contains chicken broth. To put it bluntly, when it comes to fun treats, I'm screwed.

It makes me sad because often I am asked to review products that I am not able to properly review because I am not allowed to EAT THEM!

I became sad when I received this in the mail:

NEW

FELINE GREENIES®

SMARTBITES® TREATS

You can read all about them here

I was excited at first because they look so delicious and come in such great flavors, until Mom told me I couldn't have them. (Not fair!)

Mom was at a loss about how she should handle this, then she had a genius  (which for her is rare) idea.

She would offer ONE lucky CAT BLOGGER (who lives in the U.S.) the opportunity to win the stash that was meant for ME!!

The requirements to enter are:

1) You must be a CAT BLOGGER IN THE U.S.

2) You MUST agree to do a review after receiving the product

3) You must mention in the review that you received the treats from us and link to us in your review.

Got it? Good!

If interested, leave a comment below...this is going to be a QUICK give-away because Mom has to pick the winner and get her fat butt to the post office and mail you the treats and in her procrastinating world this could take furever!

DEADLINE TO ENTER: MONDAY AUGUST 6, AT 11PM EASTERN. WINNER WILL BE CHOSEN BY www.random.org and announced WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 8th.

GOOD LUCK!!

Love, "treat-less"  Cody


I wasn't compensated for this post nor will the blogger who wins it be compensated. I received treats to review which I cannot eat, the winning blogger will receive the treats that I received. No moolah.
