Your Pets Could Be Part of PlayStation's $25,000 Donation to ASPCA

Back when PS Plus Extra title Stray launched a couple of months back, it immediately soared in popularity. There was a lot of warm sentiment about the feline-friendly title, and so convincing are its animations that real-world pets were reacting to it in heart-warming fashion. This sparked a brilliant social media trend, with pet owners sharing clips of their animals interacting with the game. Now, PlayStation wants in on the action as part of a donation to ASPCA.

Announced on PS Blog, the company has committed to a $25,000 donation to the charity, which is great in itself. However, Sony wants to extend the gift, inspired by the social craze surrounding Stray. Using the hashtag #StrayReactions on sites like Twitter and Instagram, you're encouraged to share a picture or video of your pets reacting to BlueTwelve's adventure. A selection of submissions will be included in a "digital photobook" to accompany the monetary donation.

It should be noted this is only open to US residents over 18, but it's a fun initiative that will result in lots more clips of cats, dogs, and other furry friends watching along to the game, so that's fine by us.
