Feline and Famous: Cat Crimes Goes Hollywood

A cat's glorious coat gives away a murderer. A feline TV stand-in takes the heat for an edible accident. A loony cast of cartoonists loses their real-life inspiration. Whether they save the day, take their curious revenge, or refuse to do the expected, cats have made their home in Hollywood--and the silver screen will never be the same again.
