The candidates

Meet Topopo

Topopo is a native Detroiter who now resides in the eastern suburb of St. Clair Shores. She is a fierce advocate of "love your neighbor" and "clean up after your dog." She is the unofficial mayor of Tangletown, greeting neighbors on her daily walks and graciously accepting treats.

Meet Skippy

Skippy (full name Skippy Beauvais) was a feral cat in St. Clair Shores, MI who decided to befriend Topopo during one of Topopo's walks. Skippy works hard to show that dogs and cats can work, play, and live together harmoniously. Skippy now enjoys living inside with access to a very fancy catio.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can animals actually run for president?

While animals cannot technically run for president, our campaign symbolizes the importance of those with opposing viewpoints working together.

How can I get involved in the campaign?

You can get involved by educating others about the dog/cat ticket. We also suggest that if you decide you feel Topopo and Skippy are the right candidates, request a lawn sign. Reach out to us for more details!

Are they really the cutest candidates?
