An essential deep-dive for cat lovers and film heads alike, The Encyclopedia of Movie Cats rounds up nearly every cat to grace the screen. It stretches from Abby Barnes’s cat in The Truth About Cats & Dogs (1996) to Zgougou, Agnès Varda’s grey tabby, seen across several of her films.

With over eight hundred cats featured, it covers famous feline characters including Jones from Alien and those memorable Bond villain cats. It also shines a light on working cat actors like Orangey, whose many roles include Audrey Hepburn’s cat in Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961).

You’ll also find playful cat archetypes, from writers’ cats and talking cats to bakeneko, the Japanese “ghost cats.”
