C is for Crinkle Cat

Did you know that before “Tony the Tiger” there was Crinkle the Cat? Crinkle was a gray cat whose picture appeared on boxes of Kellogg’s Toasted Corn Flakes cereal in 1914.

As you can see by the picture she depicted the fact that Corn Flakes were “For Kiddies Not Kitties.”

Aw! Crinkle the Cat.

Cats seem to be the popular theme today, which is fine by me. I'm a cat lover. :)
