SPCA hijacks video conferencing backgrounds to promote pet adoption

As anyone who's been working from home knows by now, nothing adds more delight to a dreary videoconference than the sudden appearance of a pet. Knowing this, Singapore's Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with help from Forsman&Bodenfors Singapore, has created a series of clever virtual backgrounds that advertise pets in need of real-world happy homes.

You can download the images—which include some snarky cats as well as a few of the animals Ad Nut insists on referring to as murderous beasts (although Ad Nut grudgingly admits they also deserve love and shelter)—at backgroundhomes.spca.org.sg.

Ad Nut is a surprisingly literate woodland creature that for unknown reasons has an unhealthy obsession with advertising. Ad Nut gathers ads from all over Asia and the world for your viewing pleasure, because Ad Nut loves you.
