I think this advertisement is awful, I can't believe a car company would depict a capitation of cat like that! This is totally uncalled for messing up the interior of a brand new car like that with cat blood,they should have just ran over the damn cat...lol

That ad will never be shown on TV in the USA.

My dog and I are refraining from saying how
hilarious we find that ad.

Dogspeed.

That is sick. Straight up, early teen years of a psycopath, get the ad guy into therapy now before he becomes a mass murderer, sick.

The original website is no longer in existence, the ad campaign was killed by Ford, all for this reason. They started by killing a pigeon... then moved on to a cat. Good thing it was terminated before laughing boy decided it would be cool to kill a human child in a humorous fashion.

Who ever wrote that "ad" should have their head put in the sunroof.

That is in HORRIBLE TASTE.

I believe the moderators should remove this thread.

I thought it was funny, and I have 4 cats. I never for a moment thought it was a real cat. I liked the pigeon ad as well.

Depends on your sense of humor I guess...

I couldn't help it Red.
I was complaining to my friend about how I came home from vacation and there were cat prints all over all of my cars. He sent it as therapy.

Poor computer generated kitty

Yep, 4-cat owner here, I thought this was amusing. I mean seriously, it's obviously just some animation, a little in bad taste too, but it's not real
