15 Famous Cats You’ve Definitely Seen On The Screen

There's a saying in Hollywood that you should never work with kids or animals, because it can be so tricky. But when a project gets it right with its animal actors, it can be so much fun to watch. Several movies and TV shows have been brave enough to work with felines, resulting in quite a few famous cats in Hollywood over the years.

Oftentimes when movies or shows need a baby as a character, they cast twins so that no one child is working too much. The same often goes for cats. Just about every project with a cat in a prominent role actually stars three or four cats who bring that role to life. After all, different animals are suited for different things. Some cats are great at sitting still in scenes and others are better at action shots. It's all about playing to the strength of the feline.

Cats are notoriously hard to train in comparison to dogs, who are usually people pleasers. So just know that when you watch these movies and shows with cats in them, the trainers were likely working extra hard to make everything go smoothly. It was all worth it though, because now we have these 15 famous cats who had unforgettable roles in some of our favorite projects.
