Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. A grey alley cat named Pepper was the first feline who deigned to make an appearance in some of Hollywood's early silent movies. Pepper rubbed shoulders with the best the screen had to offer. The cat quietly perfected acting skills opposite which famous talent of the day?
2. Pyewacket is the undoubted star in a film about witchcraft, love and spells. As the film follows a modern witch's attempt to snare the man she loves with a magic spell, the talent of the feline cast member is obvious. Describing the cat's role as a "familiar" is a poor ploy to highlight the mere supporting roles of Kim Novak and James Stewart.
3. Audrey Hepburn is billed as the star of this delightful movie. She resists falling in love with the new tenant in her building as she intends on marrying a rich, older man. She discovers that things do not always go according to plan, and falls in love with the young man anyway. Truth be told, if her cat "Cat" hadn't run into the rain in the final scene of the movie, the ending would have been far less dramatic. After all a kiss in the rain while holding a wet cat - who could ask for more?
4. While Art Carney may have received an Oscar for his role in this movie, the true plaudits should be reserved for a rather beautiful ginger tabby. Art's character suddenly finds himself homeless, so he takes his cat and begins an eventful journey across America. Human talent abounds in this movie of self discovery, it's true - but the fine feline acting should not be discounted. At least in this production, the Tabby talent has a title role.
5. A space ship, crew deaths, hatching eggs, hulking slavering monsters, an intrepid heroine and of course the hero himself, Jones - make for another feline movie triumph!
6. Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner play a warring couple in this comically tragic film. The division of spoils as their marriage crumbles is cleverly highlighted by the role feline star Tyler plays. The cat's fate is pivotal in accelerating the hatred and revenge in this black film.
7. George Clooney provides another feline opportunity for stardom in this movie. Clooney and Michelle Pfeiffer play two single parents caught with children who need minding while the parents meet important deadlines. As Clooney's character spends the day in various babysitting exercises, a certain small kitten manages to steal the show.
8. A unique feline talent appears in this next movie. A defrosted cat is companion to a villain who is holding the world hostage for one million dollars. The only hope humanity has rests with a badly dressed British spy with terrible teeth. This slightly chilly cat does not miss a beat when placed in front of the cameras with some of the best. Defrosting may have altered his appearance somewhat, but what price inscrutability?
9. Another ginger cat practically steals the show while teaming with Will Smith and Gene Hackman. Smith's character may well be in possession of a computer disc that others desperately want. He is forced to wrestle with the mob and unravel a conspiracy, as well as fighting to clear his name. Babe goes along for the ride, snugly ensconced in Gene Hackman's carry bag. This feline trooper barely bats an eyelid as the drama unfolds. What movie is the vehicle for this talent?
10. When Ben Stiller's character Greg accompanies his girlfriend Pam home for the weekend, he is planning to propose to her. He has no idea of the mayhem that awaits him. Pam's father Jack is played by Robert de Niro, and the good impression Greg hopes to make is foiled by the movie's real star, Jinx.
