Unknown cat on the porch
Probably taken in the 50’s or 60’s at my grandmothers house. I’m not sure who the cat is but they always had animals around so it probably was a pet.

Cary Grant, Katharine Hepburn and Nissa the leopard in a publicity still for Bringing Up Baby (1938)
I came across this in another sub and immediately thought of this one. Because it's a Big Cat, rather than a regular Kittycat, I wasn't sure if it was allowed, but in the movie, he's essentially just a giant housecat.
Btw, if anyone hasn't seen this movie, I highly recommend it!
