I am pleased to inform you that this cat was named J. Wellington Snoops. 1937. digitaltmuseum.org/021011399676...

And he appears to have been a snowbank with the head of a rather beautiful cat

Was this J. Wellington Snoops II or J. Wellington Snoops III?

Superb.

delightful to learn that, while human names go out of fashion, cat names go on forever and ever

Oh yeah? Well, let me introduce Contessa Sonja Grismonelda Isidora Purrington-Smölket Von Füfensbaugh.

Esquire.

Now I'm imagining a world where a descendent of Snoops' owners becomes a rapper named "Snoop Kitt"

He looks very dignified--the name fits. Why don't we resurrect those fancy names for our pets!

And we thank thee for this important information.

That looks like my Zoe ;O she’s been time traveling I KNEW IT
