Life is Bigger and Better With Pets @Purina!
Baby Hope and I took a trip down to Brooklyn last week to attend the fourth annual Better With Pets Summit sponsored by Purina. The daylong event brought together pet community experts and leaders across the nation to explore how pets and people are living bigger and better lives together thanks to new research and innovation that will shape the future of pet care.
The day was fun filled with three interactive panel discussions focusing on topics that continue to affect pet care and wellness including the evolving role of pets and their impact on people’s well-being, nutritional innovation that will allow pets to live healthier lives, and demystifying pet nutrition quality and safety standards.
Baby was very busy during the day whether it was visiting the outside play area so she could bask in the sun on what was a glorious day, or meeting new adoptable puppy friends in the pet therapy booth where attendees could learn about pet therapy curriculums from North Shore Animal League America, including its Mutt-i-Grees program.
Baby was also very impressed by Kevin Li, who Purina honored as a key leader in the pet industry. Kevin is the co-founder of PlayDate, a remote-controlled ball that enables users to play with their dog from any location—something that will truly help pets and owners stay connected in a meaningful way, and something Baby would like as a new toy J. Lastly, although cats may not be Baby’s fondest friends, Purina revealed a new nutritional blend that will help improves the lives of senior cats—does this mean they will have more than 9 lives?!
All in all, Baby and I thoroughly enjoyed the day learning about the future of pet care and can’t wait to see what is to come for the lives of our furry friends.
