“Cat Bowl” will showcase adorable and adoptable adult ‘cat-letes’ as they compete on the gridiron for a special place in viewers' hearts. Inspirational stories of senior and special needs cats will highlight the special event. With Hallmark Channel's partner North Shore Animal League America, “Cat Bowl” and companion program “Kitten Bowl” will be a part of the biggest pet adoption event in the country.
North Shore Bengals stars Cha Cha and his litter mate, Cookie, are a one-two punch that the Bengals hope will propel them to Kitten Bowl VII glory. One plays on offense, one plays on defense, so no matter what's happening, one of them is making the game a cat-astrophe for their opponents.
