This has been in CAT:NN for over 11 years, it's time to get a consensus on this. I'm not finding reliable, independent coverage for this show, which lasted a whopping four episodes. I'm finding plenty of coverage produced by Animal Planet, but that is not independent, as AP is the show's original network. IMDB is not a reliable source, and I'm not finding any links to reviews in reliable sources on that page. Tv.com is user-generated per WP:TVRS. I'm finding a few mentions in blogs, but everything else I'm finding is about the related shows Dogs 101 and Cats 101. It's possible there's old coverage in newspapers, but I have no idea, as I do not have access to newspapers.com. Hog Farm Bacon 04:38, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

- Per
WP:TVSERIES, there seems to be a presumption of notability - "
Generally, an individual... television program is likely to be notable if it airs... on a cable television channel with a broad regional or national audience.
I've done a search of Newspapers.com and Proquest (available through Wikipedia Library]), and have found mentions, but not exhaustive information. Most news articles seem to be local coverage of specific persons or locations being featured on the show ( [1], [2], [3]), as well as the typical short blurbs typical for upcoming airings ( [4]). -- Netoholic @ 06:49, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
- @ Netoholic: The page does say later that major network programs quickly cancelled aren't always notable. Given that this one lasted four episodes, that may be in play. Hog Farm Bacon 13:47, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect to List of Animal Planet original programming Seems more like a four-quarter special than an actual series; a redirect would work better here per WP:CHEAP. It's doubtful outside of 'Pets 101 airs tonight on Animal Planet' blurbs in TV listings 'tonight in review' segments, it wasn't written about beyond that in newspapers.

- Redirect to List of Animal Planet original programming, I tried really hard to find sources but nothing of note could be found. ★Trekker ( talk) 16:36, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect as others have said. Not sufficiently notable for it to have a standalone article by the looks of it. - Kj cheetham ( talk) 16:55, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
