portfolio (NASDAQ: CENT) (NASDAQ: CENTA) and a pioneer in wellness
products for small animals and birds, is on a mission to champion
small pets everywhere. Over 16 million people currently love and
care for small animals or pet birds, but the world of pets can

With the help of A-list star Kenneth the Guinea Pig (and his
human chaperone and small-animal enthusiast, Rainn Wilson), Kaytee
is starting the small pet revolution with “Small in Show,” a
first-of-its-kind digital short film. “Small in Show” chronicles
Kenneth and Rainn’s journey to enter the famed Westminster Dog Show
and in turn, celebrate all that small pets have to offer.
“Small pets are truly overlooked. Everyone goes straight to dogs
and cats. But Kaytee is out to show that these little creatures
have big personalities and are just as worthy to be part of your
family. That’s something that was easy to get behind,” said Rainn
Wilson.
Kenneth isn’t the only pet worthy of recognition. To put
deserving small pets everywhere front and center, Kaytee is
launching its inaugural #SmallinShow Award Show, inviting pet
parents of hamsters, bunnies, mice, birds and other small
companions to share images and stories of their mini heroes across
social media. The #SmallinShow Award Show will culminate with the
crowning of three winners who will each receive a one-year supply
of Kaytee products1.
“Small pets are incredible animals who bring joy to millions of
pet parents every day, and it’s time they get the recognition they
deserve,” said Mike McGoohan, SVP of Marketing and Strategy at
Central Garden & Pet. “For over 150 years, Kaytee has been
committed to providing high-quality products and support to small
animals, birds and their guardians, and we are proud to champion
their wellbeing. We hope that the #SmallinShow Award Show becomes a
celebration of all small animal companions and brings together this
highly engaged community in a way that has never been done
before.”
