For a little over a year now, an international store chain (with an online store too) has been sending me 1-3 items for free to keep almost every month if I write an honest review about them including photos.
Usually it's trikets like a little soap, cereal, snack bars, candy, or other small cheap stuff. But once in a while they send cool or really useful stuff like a couple backpacks, a hi-end wifi router, ampilfied TV antenna, earbuds, kitty litter, t-shirts, coffee, a coffee maker, knives, or underwear. So it makes all that writing & photographing worth it for more free stuff.
Cats love boxes. They love them when they arrive, love them when they're opened, love the wrappers or packing, love to sniff the items inside, & inspect them. So it's pretty hard to photograph a review without them getting in the picture. As long as they don't ruin the review, I usually leave them in the shot.
I noticed the reviews getting the most thumbs up are the ones with the cats in the review's photos. The readers like them. I guess the reviews with cats in them look more honest & homey so are less likely fake reviews (there's a lot of fake reviews out there). So now I try to include them in almost every review.
They've became the most famous department store cats... or at least the most famous at that store.
Here's just a few pix from my reviews. These weren't the only pix of the reviews, just the ones I saved that have the cats in them. There some other reviews with the cats too, but they weren't saved. Since they started getting popular, I save all the reviews that have a cat in them now.
