In collaboration with agency Howatson+Company, American pet supplies retailer Petco steps inside the minds of its brand mascots in this entertaining new campaign.
At the heart of the campaign is a series of short, 3D animated films featuring Petey the dog and Bernadette the cat. The charming, characterful scripts tap into the quirks and habits pet owners know and love, turning simple, stripped-back animations into comedic and loveable stories.
Crafted by +Co, the campaign uses a custom technical pipeline combining 3D modelling, 2D animation, VFX and bespoke generative AI tools to bring the pets to life across a range of films and social content.
