Andrew Lloyd Webber's classic musical CATS, based on the poetry of T.S. Eliot, is one tiptoe closer to the big screen.

Each year, six to eight million dogs and Cats will enter shelters and rescue groups, but only about half will be adopted.

Scroll down for photos of the company posing with some adorable, furry companions, plus watch their PSA here!
