Boots, Hippo, Porkchop and Tabitha used to star in the Big Lots’ famous ads.
Do the names Boots, Hippo, Porkchop, and Tabitha sound familiar? They’re the stars of one of the most famous series of television ads in recent years!
There is one small detail about these stars though – they’re all animals.
The characters are part of a campaign called “Pets Focus Group” that featured focus groups of animals having discussions about the quality of products made just for them.
The videos feature people asking silly questions and video footage of actual responses from the pets, like a funny expression from a dog or a cat casually ignoring everything that’s going on.
The ads were a huge hit with viewers. After all, lots of you have probably wondered what your pets would have to say about the things you buy for them, like their food or toys.
