As Valentine’s Day approaches, pet food company Purina has opened its first Fancy Feast Cat Florist, emphasising the value of feline-friendly flowers.
According to a study by Nestle, the makers of the Fancy Feast brand, flowers may ruin Valentine’s Day with more than a third of Australian cat owners (36 per cent) unaware that their floral bouquet may contain flowers that are potentially poisonous to cats. Popular bouquets frequently contain potentially hazardous flowers such as daffodils, tulips, and lilies.
Fancy Feast offers 100 limited editions of Fancy Feast x LVLY Valentine’s hampers and says this is the “perfect gift” for Aussies to show feline friends how much they are cherished.
“This Valentine’s Day, the team at Purina are thrilled to introduce the first-ever Fancy Feast Cat Florist. Daffodil and lily foliage, flowers and pods are just two popular blooms that can cause health problems for your cat if eaten,” said Purina Australia head of marketing Helen Warnes.
“On this international day of love and bonding, we want to give cat owners the chance to ensure only cat-friendly flowers arrive on the doorstep, to show their cats how much they’re loved too.”
The brand says customers can follow its Instagram to join the competition post to win the Fancy Feast x LVLY Valentine’s hamper.
