"We have a theory that cats are planning to take over the world, just try to look them straight in the eye...yup, they're hiding something!"
--Dog Fancy
There have been three different cats who have played
the famed "Morris the Cat." The first Morris was adopted from a shelter in 1968. In 1969 he landed the role of Morris the Cat in the famous 9 Lives Cat Food commercials! The first Morris died in 1978 and was replaced by two more cats who played "Morris." All three of the "Morris the Cat" cats were rescued from shelters.
