First, I want to say thank you to everyone who is supporting us in the campaign to get NBC and The Office to apologize for this awful story line where Dwight kills Angela's cat.
Mommy has been uber busy getting ready for a trade show and a big sale at her jobbie (she does the Marketing) but we have NOT dropped the ball on our quest to get contact info. We too sent an email and got a generic response from NBC. We are following up with a slew of letters to NBC, the Office writers and the 2 characters involved. Letters (or phone calls) are usually read more than emails according to research by the Humane Society of the United States.
Although most of you do not watch the show regularly, we suggest that you watch this episode online at NBC.com so you can reference some of the more awful lines (and some like where Dwight says to Angela after admiting he killed her cat Sprinkles "I know a great taxidermist. I'll pay to have her stuffed. Well he's not great, but he's pretty good." are worse than others.)
The contact information is (and we will be putting on the front of the envelope "Animal Cruelty Storyline Complaint" to catch their eye):
"The Office"
13927 Saticoy Street
Van Nuys, CA 91402
"The Office"
NBC Universal Television Studio
Reveille
100 Universal City Plaza
Bungalow 5180/5170

Rainn Wilson (character "Dwight")

Angela Kinsey (character "Angela" who actually has been interviewed saying she owns cats and supports animal rescue!)
c/o Forster - Delaney Management
12533 Woodgreen Street
Los Angeles, CA 90066
her my space page address has not been updated since June 2007, but it can't hurt to send her a message there too.
B.J. Novak (a writer and creator of the show)
William Morris Agency
One William Morris Place
Beverly Hills, CA 90212
On a side note, mommy will be looking up the CBS contact info ASAP on the episode of "Back to You" where the fish was killed. She did not DVR that episode so she can't list the advertisers, but she did (fastforwarding thru the episode itself) get the list of advertisers for The Office.

We have turned my blog pink to support Breast Cancer Awareness Month. We want to thank Gretchen for taking the lead in starting this. We have all been affected by this disease (my mommy's grandma and 2 aunts). We hope the cure comes soon.

Thanks for your support and going pink. Tell your mom bean "go get 'em!"
Talk about "generic response". I doubt if a human actually even saw my email about that awful program. The following is what I got back, which I'm sure is a computer response. These people don't care about anything but MONEY!

Wow! That was a great note on all those places. We too got a generic email back from our complaint. Basically it was what the Crew got. It was quite disheartening. Maybe once they start getting all the complaints they will address it.
What an awful story!!! How is that even remotely funny to anyone? I'm so glad I don't watch that show!!!
My OTW wants to put the bitey on the people who were involved with that!!! She has a mean bite even without over magnificent fangs!!!
~Jack
PS. on a nicer note, thank you for stopping by and leaving us a nice message when Whisper went to the Bridge. My OTW misses getting her snuggles burgled.
Thanks for meking me aware of this, we are taking action as well!
I say we do a little collection for the CEO's pillow. I still bet it wouldn't stink as bad as the writing, though.
Thanks for all of the wonderful contact information. Maw will write snail mail to these asswipes. She knows from when Davy was killed that snail mail gets a better response. She also needs to watch the episode, because she has never watched The Office, and of course now doesn't ever intend to.
Luf, Us
Thanks for your hard work on putting together the contact information for us.
FANKS for all of this information...we need to tell them we're going to boycott those products and hit them where it hurts them the most...their wallet.

Thanks for all the contact information. Since we usually don't watch this show - your suggestion to watch it online is a good one. We hope NBC gets the message that such story lines are unacceptable.
Midnite & Stray Kitty
Thank you for putting all that together. We're going to write our letters this weekend.
Mr H --- Yes, I did git my pressy frum yoo!!!! I maled a thank yoo this morning! And thank yoo for following up on "The Office". Cat killing is NOT funny. Ever.
Hendrix...you do your homework well! A+A+A+
I just don't know where ALI & FIONA might be. I sent a purrrsonal email with no reply back to my sad and lonely heart.
I am very worried...
Love Miss Peachy
Thank you for lettin us know about this utterly tasteless "plot". We are gonna start emailin everyone involved with such horrible ideas of "funny"!
Ooh, we are hissin mad...
Skeeter and LC
On a lighter note, I tagged you for the desktop meme tonight if you want to play!
Oh, we just read the post, and are sick to our tummies. Soo unfunny and horrible! Thanks for all the work to get us the contact info!
Tara and Kavan
Thank you for doing this! Their should be a petition site where we can all sign on the internet and then the looooong list of protesters could be delivered to NBC. We are not watching NBC anymore. Unfortunately that will not have a lot of effect, as we didn't watch it before either....
And I need your help too to make a decision - if you have time, come and take the poll at my blog? Thank you!
Karl
We are doin all we can...
Skeeter and LC
Oh BTW, The Cat Realm, we are tryin a petition...
Join us...
Uh oh, We don't watch the office so that's not a problem, but my mom drives a Subaru. hmmm, since she already has it, I don't think I can convince her to get rid of it. But I'll try.
I tagged you for the desktop meme, so if you haven't already done it, maybe you'd like to.
We have already write once, but we will write to all those address this weekend. This is a terrible thing to have on TeeVee. Show should get cancelled.
Would you like the Bite Patrol to step in and help?
Love the pink.... i wish we could figure out how to change my blog to another color....congrats and keep up the good work.
Thanks for all the contact information, it will make it easier to write to everyone!
I'm glad that you went pink too. It was good of Gretchen to remind us all that October is Breast Cancer Awareness month!
He Mr. Hendrix and Mama! Just thought I would let you all know we are contacting all the other news networks since NBC is not answering anything at all. We wrote Fox News and are also writing others - individuals at the news agencies. So anyhow... you have our support even though our site is still mutilated from hate attacks and we have not gotten it back up completely!
We are also guest posting at Pet's Garden Blog and thought you may want to see our latest rant against NBC. I also will posting on several other sites we blog at too to help spread the word.
http://www.petsgardenblog.com/ thats the first one so far!
If we get a response we will let you know from anyone who is willing to hold NBC accountable.
Hugs and Purrs from the Bad Kitty Cats and Megan
And YEAH FOR PINK!

Is the saticoy address the set of the office? because i google earthed it and it looked exactly like the building in the show.
This is so hilarious. Too many animal worshipers like you all ruin this earth. But that episode was also hilarious. Great show!!! Keep it up!
