Fresh Step Cat Litter "Le Pew Research Center" Ad (Proposed)

Someone called me from the Pew Research Center over the weekend, and that made me think of "Le Pew!", that thing everyone said whenever they ran into the skunk character Pepe Le Pew in the Warner Brothers cartoons. And since I had been cat sitting for the past two weeks (hence all the recent cat food ad ideas), that immediately made me think of cat litter odor. And then I thought it might make a fun ad for a cat litter brand, like Fresh Step.

So in this proposed ad of mine for Fresh Step Cat Litter, Pepe Le Pew is married to the cat he was always chasing in the cartoons, but her cat litter odor is becoming a problem (Oh, the irony!), leading to him running away from the cat (like he always does at the end of all the Pepe Le Pew cartoons) he's now married to. So Pepe runs off and starts a research center to find out the best way to reduce cat box odor, and he discovers that Fresh Step is the best at controlling odors. And so Pepe and his tuxedo cat wife live happily ever after thanks to Fresh Step Cat Litter: Hooray! (Until Pepe's eyes begin to wander again...)

BTW: This idea of a stinky-sounding research group could still be used even if Fresh Step didn't want to have to pay for using Pepe Le Pew. Simply replace "Le Pew Research Center" with "The P.U. Research Center", and have a different spokescat and scenario about cat box odor, showing how Fresh Step Cat Litter is the best for preventing stinky kitty boxes.
