Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. There is a classic fairy tale about a clever talking cat who helps his owner become wealthy and married to a princess. It starts with "Puss in ______." What word goes in the blank?

Answer: Boots

The story of "Puss in Boots" has been around since at least the 1500s and originated in western Europe. In it, the cat presents his poor owner as an important Marquis, and tricks a fancy castle out of an ogre. Many stories have been written about this intelligent cat - even sequels of the movie "Shrek", where he appears as Shrek's sidekick.
2. "The Cat in a Hat" is a popular rhyming story from a famous author who also wrote "Green Eggs and Ham", "Fox in Socks", and "How the Grinch Stole Christmas". Can you name the author of the book about a very fun cat and his two friends, Thing One and Thing Two?

Answer: Dr. Seuss

Dr. Seuss is the pen name of Theodor Geisel, who put a "Dr." title in front of his middle name, Seuss. He grew up in Massachusetts and became a professional cartoonist and children's author. One of his first books was "And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street" and his final book was "Oh, the Places You'll Go!"
3. In the series of books by J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter's good friend and Hogwarts' fellow was the very smart Hermione Granger. Hermione had a special cat who was moody but magical. Do you know the name of her cat?

Answer: Crookshanks

In the Harry Potter universe, Hermione's cat Crookshanks is actually part domestic cat and part Kneazle, which is a magical feline with a puffy tail and a powerful ability to detect when people are lying. He had a rivalry of sorts with Ron's pet rat, Scabbers.
4. Judith Byron Schachner writes about a Siamese cat who lives with his owner, Mrs. Tinkley, and his mother, Junebug, his father SpencerBug, and three sisters. Do you know this kitty's name?

Answer: Skippyjon Jones

Skippyjon Jones is a small Siamese cat with a gigantic imagination! He drives off bullies, solves mysteries, and even travels in space. He first appeared in the book simply titled "Skippyjon Jones" which was published in 2001, but has since appeared in "Skippyjon Jones and the Big Bones," "Skippyjon Jones in Mummy Trouble," and "Skippyjon Jones, Cirque De Olé."
5. In the Narnia book series by C. S. Lewis, there is a great and powerful lion who is both feared and loved. Do you know his name?

Answer: Aslan

Aslan doesn't just talk; he can create life. His role as King of Narnia was usurped by a sorceress known as the White Witch, but in the book "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" he regains his throne.
6. In the story "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland", written by Lewis Carroll, there was a cat named the Cheshire Cat who had a distinctive feature. Do you know what it was?

Answer: A mischievous smile

The idea of a cat with a mischievous grin appeared before Lewis Carroll wrote his books about Alice and Wonderland, but he is the one who made the cheeky kitty more popular. This cat was able to make its entire body disappear, leaving only his head visible to others; he could even make everything about himself disappear except for his cheeky grin.
7. Small Bob is a special cat who is friends with a special boy named Percy Jackson, in books by Rick Riordan. Percy is a demigod -- he has a human mother named Sally and a very special father. Do you know who his father is?

Answer: The Greek god Poseidon

Percy's father is Poseidon, the God of the Sea and one of the Twelve Olympians in Greek mythology. Percy has quite a few powers of his own. He can move waterways with his mind, he can breathe underwater, and he can communicate with marine animals, among others. Small Bob looks like a cat, but is actually related to saber-toothed tigers. You can read about Small Bob in "The Titan's Curse" and "The House of Hades", two books in the Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan.
8. "The Tale of Tom Kitten" is about a rather naughty cat named Tom and his sisters, Moppet and Mittens. Do you know the name of the famous children's author who wrote about Tom Kitten? She also wrote "The Tale of Peter Rabbit",

Answer: Beatrix Potter

Beatrix Potter was born in London and loved to read, write, and draw as a child. She and her brother had several tutors and loved learning. They made and illustrated Christmas cards to make money before she published her first book. Tom Kitten and his sister were fun characters to read about; their mother was inviting people over for tea and wanted her bunnies to be clean and nicely-dressed, but they just couldn't stay out of trouble and dirt.
9. In "The Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins, Prim had a cat that her older sister, Katniss, did not like. The cat didn't like Katniss much, either, especially when Katniss threatened to boil him for supper! She didn't. Later, they became friends. Can you name this cat, who shares the name with a flower?

Answer: Buttercup

Prim named her cat Buttercup after his yellowish color; he was very affectionate with her and slept with her at night. He didn't like Katniss nearly as much, but he softened somewhat after Katniss started giving him bits of animals she'd hunted. After Katniss won the 74th Hunger Games and her family moved to their new home, Buttercup kept running away to their old home, until he finally adjusted.
10. Our next cat causes quite a bit of trouble in her house. She eats flowers and homework; she disturbs the dog; she even loses her license to be a cat at one point! Do you know the phrase her owners use for her when she misbehaves? It's also the name of the book series she's in, which was written by Nick Bruel.

Answer: Bad Kitty!

"Bad Kitty!" That's what her owners yell at her when Kitty misbehaves. She's usually quite well-behaved, but when she's in a bad mood, watch out! She was not happy when her owners brought home a baby, but, after a while, they became friends and Kitty even tried to share her food with Baby.
