I love the trivia - it's normally pretty easy but if you can't bear to be wrong, just open up a new tab, go to Google and type in the question. The answer should pop back pretty quickly.
Free Kibble is the brainchild of a young American girl who (with help from her parents) created the website to help feed animals in US shelters. Her idea has really taken off and they regularly receive daily visitors to the site. Going by the kibble tally at the bottom of the question section and dividing the number by 10 (which is how many pieces of kibble are donated each time an answer is guessed - whether correctly or incorrectly), it appears as though freekibble and freekibblekat users have played 12,113,880 times. That's 12 MILLION, 113 thousand, 880 times (as at 9 June 09)!
Recently added to the site is a tally of which countries Free Kibble is being played in. I found it very interesting that New Zealand is ranked in 15th place out of a total of 135 countries. That puts us in the top 12% of countries playing. That's pretty awesome for a country with such a tiny population! What this tells us is that New Zealanders are big animal lovers and we're generous enough to want to help another country give food to their animal shelters, which is very noble.
Good on Mimi Ausland for her inspiration to create the site and good on you, New Zealand, for helping to support unwanted animals in another country.
