The owner is a marketing magician, making the most out of her pet’s appearance. That movie was annoying, just looking at the previews gave me enough of a warning.

I didn’t see the Chistmas special on Lifetime because it seemed so cheesy

Wow, that is a shocker to me...a cheesy program on the Lifetime network? What will tomorrow bring...

Product merchandising, books, promotional contracts (friskies, petco),movie rights, etc. But that’s probably gross, not net.
