When it comes to orange tabby cats, Morris is king. He’s visited countless schools and led huge campaigns for the cause. However, his most important role is being an advocate for cat adoption. Morris has also written books, run for president, and starred in the film Shamus with Burt Reynolds. Over the past 50 years, there have been 6 Morris the Cats, and all of them were rescued by 9Lives cat food. He even won a Patsy Award (the animal equivalent of an Oscar). From 1969 to 1978, Morris starred in 50 commercials, creating one of the most successful advertising campaigns in television history.
