    I would love to know how they made this commercial. It was my favorite super bowl commercial. I still get a good laugh when I watch it.

    Try to run this search: Cat Herders and Inspiration Room. It should lead you to an article about the way it was made. I can't paste the link here because URLs are not allowed in comments. Hope it helps.

    ya'll know they wouldn't haffta' be herdin' them cats if they'd had gotten them fixed when they shudda.' We're euthanizing too many cats in shelters here, help us out & neuter your pets. I took on neutering 86 cats on a ranch where they didn't have the common sense to see the litters counting up until it was too late! One female cat, had a litter & 10 years later there were 86 of them breeding. 50% of them pregnant in FREEZING NOVEMBER! Thanks for listening! The Neuteress of the Night

    You're totally right on that, Neuteress. Fixing them is certainly better than killing them. BTW, I guess the commercial is more of a metaphor.

    Also:

    Most of the humans appearing in this commercial aren’t traditional actors, either — they are real cowboys, who work at ranches in California, Colorado and New Mexico. Supposedly, much of the script was based on dialogue that came from the cowboys themselves.

    Found something by googling cat herders cgi:

    Only about 60 cats were cast to be in the commercial, many of them with specialties, such as swimming or docility. The scenes where there appear to be hundreds of them are computer generated. The CGI was created by Sight Effects, Inc.

    Also computer generated are the scenes with cats running among the horses. So don’t worry, no feline actors were stomped during the commercial’s making.

    Thirteen cat trainers worked on the filming.

    Pastoring a congregation is the same thing as herding cats! I know because I am a pastor!
