I like the grumpy one on the car hood at the end. (Or is that a bonnet?)

Cats were hardier back then. Some of these cats lived through the blitz. They had well over a dozen lives, back in those days. Not nine. What can you do in just nine?

I want a framed print of ballet cat. That cat looks identical to the twins I just got from the shelter a few weeks ago. Now I must go put dainty garlands on my cats!

Cats were hardier back then.

Of course, only the survivors were photographed.

I hope.
