SNL Forever Kittens skit? (1 Viewer)

DaveF · Jul 12, 2009

Need a bit of help. I'm looking for a Saturday Night Live skit. SNL did a skit in the 90s (?) called "Forever Kittens" or similar. It was a mock ad, about a service that would send in clowns to distract your kids, while secretly replacing your boring cat with a new kitten. This way you would always have a fun kitten for your family and on one would be the wiser.

Is this online? I can't find it. If you know the name of the skit or how to find it online, I'd appreciate it.

Have you tried searching for it on YouTube?

DaveF · Jul 13, 2009

Couldn't find it there either.

Do you remember who was in it? I searched the SNL transcripts site and didn't find anything related to "Forever Kittens."

DaveF · Jul 13, 2009

No. It was a while back. I think it was 90s, but I'm not sure.

Closest I could find was this Video and a comment further down that indicates an Conan Obrien series of skits about Forever Puppies/Kittens/Kiddies. I haven't been able to track down anything to confirm it was Conan though it could be a variation of something from when he was a SNL writer (I thought about SCTV or MADTV as well). I could be that the poster screwed it up also.

That's the right idea, but not the video I'm thinking of. Maybe it's the start of the idea?

If anyone has a source, I am looking for a skit with Chris Elliot as an ad exec who is trying to create a jingle for a candy bar called Nutastic (or something like that). But his attempts were met with disapproval, as the jingles ended, "It's nut really good" and "It's nut something you want in your mouth".

I think it was called "Nut-a-rific." As in "Nut-a-rific, Nut-a-rific, it does NUT taste good!" (or "it's NUT very good" or a few other permutations).

is a site i'd recommend. i'm trying to look for you, it sounds familiar.
the one i'm thinking of is of a skit were the host came on and said something like "tired of having to explain death to your children? just trade in your old dog for a puppy and don't think twice."

DaveF · Jul 17, 2009

You're probably thinking of the same skit. I searched the transcript site and couldn't find anything.

Five years later, I found it. Also of note: this thread is the #1 result in google for "snl forever kittens". However, it turns out the video I've been looking for all these years was a Conan O'Brien gag. :laugh:

Good job keeping up with it.

I thought it might ve been Confuse-a-Cat from Monty Python.

That segment reminds me of Carlin discussing dogs. "When the dog died you get a new one! You have a constant supply of little companions!" and about the dog lookin cute when he turns his tilts his head "lets get it fix so he staaaays that way!" lol
