Happy Holidays...from Purina. Hop over to the PetCentric site and create your own Critter Carol. That would be a video of your dog or cat singing the holiday greeting.
To quote, "These funny holiday greeting cards from Critter Carols feature your dog or cat singing. Just upload a photo of your pet to a wintry background, choose a holiday song, and let 'em sing, let 'em sing, let 'em sing!"
Here's the scoop - you can use their pets (I'm fond of the bulldog - he reminds me of my Uncle George; at least, he would if I had an Uncle George! LOL) or you can upload pics of your own pets and have them sing a specific Christmas carol (you choose from Deck the Halls or We Wish You A Merry Christmas or Jingle Bells) and after you've dressed Fluffy or Fido appropriately - send the card off to your Mom and sis and bro and cousin and all your co-workers!
Purina has made this tres' easy - and fun! Personally, while I was writing this post, I had the Purina pets sing along. That pup snowboarding in the background is a bit distracting, tho! (I bet my daughter takes Twiggy snowboarding - now that would be a video to watch! Maybe she's create a Twiggy Critter Carol...hey, I think I'll email her right now!)
Gotta love the fun and frolicky nature at Purina. You know you wanna do this...go on, get thee to the site and send a Critter Carol to everyone you know! In keeping with the season, of course.








These applications are always fun and a great idea for the holidays!
I have some suggestions for PetCentric:
- Wish you could upload more than one pet (average of pets in most households?).
- In order to shape the head/ears, it requires the photo have some extra space around the head (I had trouble using a trimmed headshot)
- My cat is black with a white mouth...
I hope I'm not being too picky (Ok, I guess I am a little spoiled after using elfyourself). Still I love to see my kitty animated: http://www.petcentric.com/crittercarols/?mid=29004773
I look forward to using the upgraded version next year. Thanks for the post, Yvonne!
