Adoption photos don't always capture pets looking their best, but AI is now helping to highlight their unique personalities, creating heartwarming images that increase their chances of finding loving homes—as seen in The Arm & Hammer Cat Litter Feline Generous program's Personality Pics social media sweepstakes.
Piglet is available for adoption via the Morris Animal Refuge in Philadelphia, PA, and the Personality Pics tool highlights the 11-year-old cat's intelligence and love of cozy comforts.
In June, Arm & Hammer Cat Litter partnered with the ASPCA for Adopt a Shelter Cat Month to debut its Personality Pics AI tool during several virtual adoption events to raise awareness and drive adoption. This initiative was successful in raising $200,000 for the ASPCA in just 72 hours through a matching donation campaign and led to several adoptions.
