Crusha Milkshake - Gym Kittens
13 April 2008 by SilkyI really can’t decide if there’s some charmingly ironic shitness to this animated LOL Cats horror show of an advert or whether it is, in fact, just shit.
There’s undoubtedly something that puts a little grin on my face when it comes on but, crickey, the demonic voice on the jingle and the mad staring eyes of the cats topped off with a lovely little feline threat at the end is just plain creepy.
Who knows what this is all about?
I certainly don’t but then maybe I’ve just gotten too old for this kind of thing.
Now, where’s my Ovaltine?

In your justification of this advert you used “ironic shitness” in its defence and “just shit” in your condemnation.
I have two points to make:
1. You are spending too much time around nappies and
2. You are limiting us, the respondents, with defecation adjectives
Except two:
It’s crap and it’s poo!

The campaign is a reference to rathergood.com specifically the music leans towards the animation they did for the Elbow version of Destiny’s Child’s Independent Women

I think the people behind the campaign have asked Joel Veitch to work with them on the ads. I’m not too sure but the fact the site has kittens in the gym as their latest entry would suggest they do.

You seem to have misunderstood-this is simply a good natured advert for an essentially kid-targeted product. As such, it is perfect-good fun and a refreshing change from the usual stuff. well done to crusha!! A great advert from a talented team.

I hate 95% of adverts on TV, but I do like this one. Perhaps it’s because I like Joel Veitch’s work, or perhaps because I like kittens. Maybe it’s because I remember Crusha from when I was a kid.
Either way, anthropomorphic kitten singing in a gym? Fantastic.
