To mark the campaign, the brand has unveiled an exciting film that captures the pet's enjoyment from the Whiskas eating experience. The ASMR approach brings the sensorial joy of a cat’s mealtime to life. The film romanticizes an almost ritualistic ‘CRUNCH‘ & ‘LICK’ – leading to the elusive ‘PURR’ – the ultimate sign of cat satisfaction.  With the pet and the pet parent at the center of the story as always, WHISKAS® with POCKETS™ turns everyday feeding into contentment for cats, driven by taste.

Speaking on the launch, Ayesha Huda, Chief Marketing Officer, Mars Petcare India, said, “Mars brings 90s years legacy of pet food. We understand that Cats are physiologically very different, and hence the drivers of enjoyment during feeding are very unique to cats e.g. textural variety and crunch are much more important for cats. The pockets in WHISKAS® are designed to deliver this elevated sensorial experience to cats. WHISKAS®, being our flagship cat food brand, has always had POCKETS™, and our campaign is an effort to celebrate the quality of our food.”

Katie Griffiths, Global Brand VP, Whiskas, added, “At WHISKAS®, everything we do begins with understanding cats, their instincts, their preferences, and the way they experience food. This campaign is inspired by that insight, celebrating the textures, tastes, and sensorial delights that make everyday feeding more enjoyable, while continuing to deliver complete and balanced nutrition that cats need. It reflects our broader commitment to advancing cat nutrition through meaningful, pet-centred innovation, and to supporting a new generation of cat parents who are increasingly seeking both quality and enjoyment in what they feed their pets.”

Speaking about the creative strategy behind the campaign, Krishna Mani, Chief Creative Officer, BBDO India, said, “WHISKAS® With POCKETS™ brings together an irresistible contrast of textures: a satisfying crunch on the outside with a creamy, indulgent center that cats love from the very first bite.” He also added, “Through this campaign, we wanted to celebrate the emotion of cat parenthood. The true reward isn't just in serving a meal. It's in hearing that unmistakable, contented purr. That soft rumble is the ultimate seal of approval, a moment that tells every cat parent they've chosen something their feline friend genuinely loves.”
