So we all knew it was just a matter of time before Purrfect sank her claws into the music business herself. Today, the white Persian wonder dropped her new single, which is really an old familiar jingle: A remix of the resurrected Meow Mix theme song.

PURRFECT - "MEOW MIX" THEME"

The remix is available on www.MeowMix.com starting today, all for a good cause: For each download of the song, one pound of Meow Mix kibble will be donated to Pets Are Wonderful Support, Los Angeles (PAWS/LA), a charity for pets in need. The goal is to donate up to 12,000 pounds of cat food--enough to feed all of PAWS/LA's kitties for one year. Aw, that Purrfect sure is a softy.

Let's hope Purrfect will get a chance to perform this meow-remix on next week's "Voice" finale. After years of nasty reality judges accusing tone-deaf contestants of sounding like wild cats, it'd be nice to have a real kitty show 'em all how's it done.
