Biography[]
When Kitty Kat wanders through the Addams Family Mansion, he unwittingly frightens all of their visitors. Gomez also says, "You must mean Kitty, she's real alright."[1] Without his drinking fountain, he isn't his old playful self. [2] An apparently ailing Kitty Kat is examined by the doctor. [3]
This character is omitted in the 1991, 1993, and 1998 live action films.

Trivia[]
Animal Actor[]
The African lion from the original series was raised and trained by animal handler Steve Earl Martin (no relation to the comedian). Additional trainers include Ralph Helfer, Toni Helfer (Ralph's wife), Frank Inn, Juanita Inn (Frank's wife), Monty Cox, and Ron Oxley. Most of the lion's appearances were actually scenes from stock footage of the lion walking down the main stairs or growling into the camera.
In The New Addams Family, Kitty Kat is a lioness played by mountain lion Shoshoni. [5]
