A very original TT :-)
Interesting list! I'm not familiar with all of the entries but you've done a great job coming up with such an eclectic mix of cats :-)
I loved your T13 entry. A very diverse list of cats.

Awwwww, I loved this. I adore cats and have four indoor sweeties of my own -- and yes, I so agree that of all wonderful and magical cats, the most magical of all are our precious, well-loved felines!
Thanks for a heartwarming TT.
LOL. I love this. I'm also amazed you came up with thirteen.
Though it never occurred to me to call Aslan a "cat".
Great T13
Wonderful list!
Thanks! Of course, my cat complained I didn't post his picture. Everybody's a critic. LOL
Cheers and grins,
Nice to see the first two were well loved pantomimes!
Those are some of my favorite cats too!
I love the Cat in The Hat.
I wouldn't call my cats magical. More...irritating LOL (one knocked over a glass of water this morning).
I did just finish a book with a magic cat though, Beyond the Hedge. Interesting time travel.
It's a shame but besides my own 4 (since 2 days) 5 cats I don't know any of these characters ! But you can see little 6 week old Rosie on my cat blog (cats & funny stories)
and TS Eliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats
LOL!
Don't forget the cat in that Disney movie, "That Darn Cat".
I especially LOVE Aslan. :D But as a kid who used to actively look for the entrance into Narnia, that's not really a shocker. LOL

OK, you know I'm going to have to do one about dogs, now, don't you? ;)
Very interesting list! Happy TT!
Great list! Happy T 13 :)
I have a heroine who names a pet tiger Maneki-Neko. Everyone thinks I made it up! Great list. The research must've been pretty daunting!
Dare I say it? I'm not a cat person, but I know most of those cats. Great list!
Love this week's list!
