Dulcie’s Story. (Part 2)

Fat Cats.

10th September 2007

The world’s favourite cartoon cat is “I’m not overweight, I’m undertall” Garfield. However, the reality for fat cats is not as cheerful. Truly big cats usually have a genetic or hormonal problem, and may only live short lives.

Felix.

10th September 2007

 Felix the Cat is a cartoon character from the silent-film era. His black body, white eyes, and giant grin, coupled with the surrealism of the situations in which his cartoons place him, combined to make Felix one of the most recognizable cartoon characters in the world.
