    PURRS FOR PREZ

    Tabby might have left the first cat hairs in the oval office, but Morris was looking to be the first purrfect prez. The famous 9 Lives cat mascot was  eager to add a new skill to to his resume and decided to run for office in 1988. Morris held an official press conference to announce his bid, where his rep claimed the cat had "the animal magnetism of Kennedy." Sadly, he didn't get the chance to move into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. (Love Meow)
