Kitten Bowl 2023: Where To Watch Great American Rescue Bowl Before Super Bowl 57

Viewers hoping to see adorable feline fur babies compete in the Kitten Bowl ahead of Super Bowl 57 will have to tune into a different program this year. On Sunday, the Great American Family channel will broadcast the first ever "Great American Rescue Bowl."

After the Hallmark Channel announced the cancellation of the Kitten Bowl in 2022, the Great American Family partnered with the North Shore Animal League America and gave the event a complete makeover.

This time around, viewers will see adoptable puppies, kittens, cats, and dogs playing in a pet-sized football stadium.

When the event airs on Sunday, it can be watched on TV at 10:30 a.m. ET on the Great American Family channel. However, those who want to sleep in can catch the encore, which will air at 4 p.m. ET.

Viewers can also live stream the event on various services, including Sling TV, Philo, and Hulu with a Live TV plan.

Some of the names that will be taking the field this year include Primrose, Fletcher, Joey, Angel, and PJ. Other Notable players from the 2023 Rescue Bowl include animal athletes rescued from West Virginia, South Carolina, and Antigua.

"As animal homelessness continues to be widespread throughout the country, we couldn't be more proud to welcome 'Great American Rescue Bowl' to Great American Family," Bill Abbott, President and CEO of Great American Media, said in a statement.

"By highlighting these heartwarming adoption stories and the lifesaving work of North Shore Animal League America, we hope this national rescue adoption event will inspire viewers to visit their local shelter and adopt a loving pet."

The two-hour special, hosted by Beth Stern and Larissa Wohl, will also take a behind-the-scenes look at adoptions, animal rescues, and fostering following natural disasters like Hurricane Ian and other tragedies.

​If you just can't get enough of the newest batch of furry players, there are plenty of puppies, kittens, dogs, and cats available for adoption. Check out the North Shore Animal League website for more information.
