| 0:00.0 | Hi, folks. A little bit of drama at my house because my daughter is taking a trip and she dropped off her cat. |
| 0:08.6 | And so I have two cats living together. |
| 0:12.0 | And it turns out that my cat really loves his food and doesn't appreciate it when there's another cat around who might be interested in that |
| 0:21.3 | same food. |
| 0:21.9 | Oh no. |
| 0:22.6 | And it created a lot of drama over the past day or two. |
| 0:27.8 | Is there a dog there too? |
| 0:29.4 | No. |

| 1:23.0 | 88% of cat parents say that after feeding Smalls, their cat is softer, shinier, has more energy to play, and overall just seems healthier. |
| 1:33.4 | And at the very least, I can say that 0.001% of small's cat food owners think that their cat is going to beat up another cat if they get anywhere close to their food. |
| 1:50.6 | Also, my cat loves the broth. |
