They say that cat's have nine lives, but do you think they would throw one away for a single piece of pet food? This Gatos Cat Food campaign seems to indicate that these feline treats are so delicious that your kitten may give "One life for a biscuit."

Naturally, bits of kibble have found themselves in rather precarious places, requiring cats to employ their agility against reversing cars, electrical wires and a bed of upturned knives in the kitchen. Such perilous-looking pictures would have been shocking if produced with real pets posing for a camera, so thankfully the Zain (Z) Agency has created these images using adorable animations. Appealing to the [cat lover](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whiskas-purradise), risk-taker and child within you, this Gatos Cat Food campaign cleverly communicates the scrumptious taste of these [kitty snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ten-lives).
