    You Only Live Twice, because it had a bigger role and more screentime.

    I didn't forget one. Did MGW play the same character each time? I didn't forget one.

    I was going to go with DAF, but I really think the wrong pussy outshined him (or her). So I will go with FRWL for the very convincing stunt of eating that goldfish.

    A very good incentive, Kerim. I will follow that choice. ;;) FRWL it is for me. :)

    It's got to be YOLT.
    Was just about to post the same clip as @nalliac. Later when Blowers shoots Osato the cat jumps out of his arms and buggers off.
    Kudos to Donald Pleasance for continuing with the scene even though the cat is mauling him to escape.

    Ditto. I vote for YOLT for the exact same reason.

    wondering where this was heading for a moment. Best Blofeld Cat moment ? :O

    after some careful, if brief, consideration I went with You Only Live Twice, the scene when the mog leaps out of Pleasance's arms or six feet in the air when shooting Osato instead of Bond always raises a snigger, poor cat.

    not too many other feline Blofeld Cat moments of recognition, if I can be excused.

    I'll go with YOLT as well, purely for the fact that it buggered off into the ceiling of the crater. Hiding right under( wel above actually, but you get my point ) their noses, thát's pure Villain behaviour.

    In which was the last Bond Movie did cat/cats play a (pivotal) part in a Bond scene, License to Kill would be my guess (I don't go noticing cats generally in 007 pictures, except when they are part of a scene etc)

    Thankyou Nalliac. I was just about to vote for FRWL as the cat displayed purrfect (pun intended) style. Blofeld seemed to really enjoy stroking that pussy and it did eat a fish. Plus I figured FRWL was a good way to end the thread for me.

    Until I saw that video. It's something I've never noticed before. That cat looks like he or she is having a seizure. A oscar worthy performance IMHO. I've never seen such fear conveyed by any actor. My hat is off to you Blofeld's Puss.

    My vote goes to You Only Live Twice.

    I guess Puss realized since Connery was sleep-walking through the film that it was gonna have to pick it's game up. The mark of a true pro.

    And @Darthdimi Kudos to you sir for one of the best threads on the site. I'll be sad to see it end.

    Blofeld's Cat from YOLT suddenly fought back when it looked as if DAF was surely going to win, and it did so very vigorously I might add. The little You Tube film posted here leaves little to the imagination. ;;)

    Thank you all!

    I tip my hat to you DD. A truly great thread of healthy, amusing debate. Topped off with a cat having a seizure! Only here on Mi6 have I witnessed such random hilarity! Brilliant stuff.

    Thanks for the fun @DarthDimi. In a few years time we'll be able to revote on some of them and though the result may be the same, it'll be something to do.

    For you Sir for helping us pass the time until November!
