How to Watch a Puppy Bowl Without a Cable
Have you heard that today is a big game? Puppies and kittens will fight in two epic battles: The Puppy Bowl and Kitten Bowl.
Both games are aired prior to the People’s Super Bowl and are mostly TV-only operations. If you’re looking to catch them and don’t have a TV (or cable subscription that includes Animal Planet and the Hallmark Channel), you have several options:
Bowl for puppies
“Puppy Bowl” airs at 3:00 pm ET on Animal Planet. It’s available through DirecTV Now. and PlayStation Vue.
Both offer free trials, so if you haven’t test drive one or both, you should be able to catch all of the tail wagging for free.
Kitten Bowl
For the fifth year in a row, Kitten Bowl kicks off at noon on the Hallmark Channel. All of this year’s entrants have been displaced from their homes by recent national disasters, and they include public favorites such as JJ Swatts and Jason Kitten. The winner will take home the Feline Football Trophy.
You can catch it through DirecTV Now, Sling TV, and Fubo TV. All three come with a fee, but free trials are also offered, so you should be able to access it for free (assuming you haven’t gone through all three free trials yet).
