The Feline Factor A Brief
History of Cartoon CatsAs we
delve into the fascinating
world of cartoon cats its hard
to ignore their enduring
popularity From Felix the Cats
debut in 1919 to Andrew Lloyd
Webers iconic musical Cats

Book of Practical Cats these
feline friends have captured
our hearts and imaginationsBut
lets start at the beginning
with Felix the Cat the first
cartoon cat who made his debut
in 1919 This beloved character
was created by Otto Messmer
and quickly became a sensation
paving the way for future
feline stars like Tom and
JerryFast forward to 1940 when
Tom and Jerry took center
stage in their first
theatrical cartoon Puss Gets
the Boot This classic rivalry
has been entertaining
audiences for generations with
its slapstick humor and
adorable catandmouse anticsIn
a more unexpected turn of
events Andrew Lloyd Webers

of feline fantasy to life in
1981 Based on TS Eliots

Practical Cats this hit show

lets not overlook the more
obtuse aspects of these
cartoon cats Are they just
simple cartoons or do they
hold deeper symbolic
significance Perhaps Felix
represents the freespirited
nature of the Roaring Twenties
while Tom and Jerry embody the
eternal struggle between good
and evil or at least cat and
mouseWhatever their meanings
its clear that cartoon cats

imaginations Whether youre a

modern musicals these feline
friends are sure to bring a
