About "Crib Cat:"

The series, which is hosted by Inaba's longtime friend Crib Cat, premieres on YouTube's Petsami channel Monday, March 26.

Each week, CribCat spotlights a deserving kitty from a no-kill shelter in need of a home and gives her personal advice and tips on what would make a great home for them. Whether it's finding a human who has the right temperament or setting up the perfect scratching post, CribCat is on a mission to help every cat in America find a place to call their own.

CribCat joins a whole slate of Petsami programming containing a variety of eccentric pet personalities as they host shows that offer insight into the secret lives of their four-footed best friends. Additional pet programming on the channel includes deep thoughts by meerkats and curated cat videos provided by an internet junkie.

Petsami also provides viewers with an interactive experience by allowing them to upload their own videos to the channel, create captions for different videos and even vote on whether cats or dogs are cuter.
