When it comes to famous movie cats, Mrs Norris has a magic touch. Appearing in the Harry Potter series, as the pet cat of Argus Filch, the role was actually played by four different Maine Coon mogs, three of which were rescue cats.
Alanis was used for most of the holding scenes as she was good at staying still; Pebbles walked the hallways as he was trained to walk and stop at a particular spot; Maximus was trained to jump up onto Filch’s shoulders, and Cornilus would sit and look around when told. Old cats, new tricks?
