What 'Morris The Cat' Has to Say

This famous finicky feliine from 9-Lives cat food commercials has a few things to say...

Morris is the advertising mascot for 9-Lives brand cat food, appearing on its packaging and in many of its television commercials. Originally rescued from a shelter in 1968, this tabby has gone on to unparalleled cat success through his commercials, movie appearance in Shamus in 1973 with Burt Reynolds, and in authoring three of his "own" books. Let's see what Morris has to say on the subject of cats:

"The cat who doesn't act finicky looses control of his humans."

"Personally, I don't believe felines are a fad. We're here to stay."

The Grace of a Cat

The Wit and Wisdom of Garfield

Garfield was "born" in 1978 when he made his first comic strip appearance in 41 newspapers. Created by Jim Davis, this is the personification of humans in cat form. Today, Garfield, along with his "owner" Jon Arbuckle, and his dog pal Odie, are featured in over 2,570 newspapers around the world. From animated TV shows, to books, to appearing in two feature films in which he starred as himself, this lasagna-loving feline has become one famous cat over the last 30 years! Here's a bit of wise advice direct from the "fat cat" himself:

"Start each day with a smile (and get it over with)."

"All work and no play is out of the question."

"Avoid fruits and nuts: after all, you are what you eat."

"Give me coffee and no one gets hurt."

"If you are patient...and wait long enough...Nothing will happen!"

"Some call it laziness. I call it deep thought."

"I'm not overweight. I'm under-tall."

"Life is a constant battle between diet and dessert."

"All I do is eat and sleep. Eat and sleep. Eat and sleep. There must be more to a cat's life than that. But I hope not."

"If you want to appear smarter, hang around someone stupider."

"Once again, my life has been saved by the miracle of lasagna."

"You can bet it wasn't an exercise freak who invented power steering."

Look Out Hollywood! Here Comes Garfield!

Garfield - The Movie
