Orchestrating Pet Influencers: Rhetorical and Visual Strategies in Creating Mediated Platform Content
Despite the prevalence of pet influencers, there is a paucity of studies on the subject matter. Our paper utilizes a mix of interviews and Netnography to understand how people orchestrate their pet companions on social platforms. We provide a typology of performative storytelling and discuss implications to theory and firms.
