Several versions of this card were printed and were used to advertise a 1905 short silent movie, called the Whole Dam Family and the Dam Dog. There does not appear to be a cat in the movie. You can watch a minute and a half of it on Youtube. I think there must have been more.

Oh dear that is cute. Maybe not a card to send to grand-aunt Edna though.

The card is great fun! And fairly surprising to me that it dates from so long ago.
