Cute and Kitschy Cat Photos by Harry Whittier Frees
Speak of cute cat photos with amusing captions and the LOLcats will surely come to mind first, but apparently, these adorable and hilarious photos are not inventions born out of the Internet age. An American photographer actually did it first way back in the early 1900s!
During a birthday party in 1906, an American photographer named Harry Whittier Frees saw somebody put a birthday hat on the pet cat and thought it would make a nice photo. So he did and unbeknownst to him, he would make a career out of it.
