25 Antique Feline Antics Photos From the Meowing Twenties, Purrty Thirties, Flying Furrties, and Frisky Fifties

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! This is Archie ‘The Cat’s Meow’ Thompson coming to you live from the FNF (Feline News First) studio, where the news of the day is bustling—but hold onto your hats, because we’re taking you straight to our top reporter in the field, Frankie ‘Whiskers’ Dawson, who’s uncovered a breaking story about the timeless charm of cats through the ages. Take it away, Frankie!

Thank you, Archie, Well now, folks, gather ’round and tune those dials in nice and close because we’ve got a humdinger of a story for ya! While humans were busy hustling and bustling their way through the chaos of the 1920s, ’30s, ’40s, and ’50s, one thing—yes, one thing—stayed absolutely the same. That’s right, I’m talkin’ about CATS!  

So here’s the scoop, folks: history marches on, but cats? They’ve mastered the art of doing absolutely nothing, and honestly, they do it better than anyone. Hats off to the original cool cats.
