PETA is using Donald Trump’s “grab em’ by the pussy” quote to help cats get adopted in New York City.
The organization released a billboard Thursday showing a picture of a cat with the caption, “Grab a pussy! Adopt a cat from your local shelter.”
“The new nonpartisan ad campaign aims to urge New Yorkers to choose the right catidate by electing to adopt one of the 20,000 cats taken in by city-run shelters each year,” PETA said in a press release.
In the video released last week, Trump was seen bragging about how his celebrity allows him to do whatever he wants to women, including grabbing them “by the pussy.”
“The sensationalism of this election has rendered many other important issues invisible,” PETA President Ingrid Newkirk said in the press release. “We hope this ad will encourage people to think for a second about the crisis facing cats and other animals and — if they have the time, love, patience and funds to do so — to consider opening their homes to one or two beautiful cats from a shelter.”
