Vote for 'Morris the Cat's' Presidential Running Mate and Help an Animal Shelter Win $35,000

In August of this year, we found a renewed sense of hope with the announcement of a prestigious new candidate entering the presidential race—a candidate who champions paws-itivity and paw-licies that help everyone live the good life. That candidate is none other than Morris the Cat.

At that time, Morris was looking for a running mate that shares his beliefs, and now is the time to cast your vote for this running mate. The winner’s pet parent(s) will receive a $1,000 cash prize and the chance to choose which animal shelter will receive a $35,000 donation from 9Lives.

Ladies and Gentlemen, here are all of your adorable and deserving candidates!
