If you are in a country without Animal Planet, you don't have to be left behind in the kennel If you are on vacation or don't have a Puppy Bowl in your home country, you may want to consider a VPN (Virtual Private Network)

We evaluated many VPN services and our top pick is ExpressVPN ExpressVPN meets the VPN needs of most users, offering excellent compatibility with most devices and blazing connection speeds The affordable price of $1295/month is also attractive (Signing up for longer periods, such as 6 months or a year, further reduces the cost)

And the question on everyone's mind: which dogs will represent Team Fluff and Team Ruff at Puppy Bowl XVI? As always, the dogs participating in Puppy Bowl 2020 are insanely adorable, and many of them are in foster care at local animal shelters This year's Puppy Bowl will also highlight dogs with special needs, including a three-legged Labrador Retriever mix named Ferris and a blind and deaf Shetland Sheepdog mix named Filbert

Other notable starters for Puppy Bowl 2020 include Team Fluff's Ennis (an Australian Cattle Dog/Labrador Retriever mix) and Bart (a Great Pyrenees/Weimaraner), Team Fluff's Aspen (an Australian Cattle Dog/Cocker Spaniel) and Betty (Bulldog) of Team Ruff

The Puppy Bowl will feature feline action during the halftime show, but it is not unreasonable to hope for an event filled entirely with cute cats Fortunately, Hallmark Channel is making that happen with two events: the Cat Bowl and the Kitten Bowl

The Cat Bowl will air on February 1 at 11 pm ET, and the Kitten Bowl will air the following day on February 2 at 2 pm ET If you can't wait until Sunday at 3 pm, the Cat Bowl and Kitten Bowl will fill the void The Hallmark Channel is available on most cable exchange services, including Sling TV, FuboTV, and AT&T TV Now
