KONG is the proud sponsor of iPet Companion in 2012.As a result of this sponsorship, KONG is helping to bring the iPet Companion into animal shelters across the USA.
Shelters will house the interactive toys at their facility for 6 weeks. This will showcase adoptable animals who are looking for forever homes, and hopefully, will lead to a BIG increase in adoptions.

"We still get lots of interest in the iPetCompanion. It’s really popular with everyone and it’s a highlight of our shelter tours. We love it."
~ David Lytle, OHS, 21st July 2011 (10 months after launch)
"I think it gives people at home or at work on their computer a great way to feel connected with live animals and in this digital age people really yearn for companionship and connection. When I travel I wonder all the time what's happening at home with my cat, is he getting along with the pet sitter, are they having fun? And with a mechanism like this I could actually see my own pet at home in real-time."
~Nancy Taylor, President & CEO, Bideawee
“We do so much to care for our animals physically, but we also know the critical importance that mental stimulation and positive engagement has in their overall well-being. Engaging the cats in this type of play is not only fun, it will help keep them happy and healthy during their stay with us!”
~CJ Bentley, MHS Sr. Director of Operations, October 2011
