Welcome back, PawTracks readers! This is Pet Profiles — a monthly series that features some of the beloved pets of the talented guys, gals, and folks behind the magic of Digital Trends Media Group. In case you’re unfamiliar, DTMG is the parent company that runs PawTracks and several other online media outlets.
Whatever you’re doing, it can wait because it’s time for your daily dose of cute. Ready for another furry, four-legged story to put a smile on your face? This month, you’re in for a treat. Not only are we meeting two pets in one interview, but they’re also a bit different than the good boys and girls we’ve gotten acquainted with before. What’s so special, you might ask? They’re cats!
Let’s get to know Snowflake, Oliver, and their human dad, our Sales Director Brian McFarland.
