3 Little Kittens

Adorable kittens need good food too. So, in 1959, General Mills acquired the company that made 3 Little Kittens cat food. And if it could POSSIBLY get any cuter, in 1963, we featured an offer to send three mittens to moms to keep their kids’ hands warm (a pair and a spare). Because kittehs love delicious cat food and hate cold hands.

Three Little Kittens

Think General Mills is only about people food? Think again! We love the kittehs too! In 1959 General Mills acquired the American Crab Meat Co. of Boston and took over the 3 Little Kittens brand. Sadly, for cats and kittens, 3 Little Kittens didn’t contain crab, but , as you can see in this 1961 label, was packed with fish. Meow!
