If you believe that people have only recently become obsessed with cats in the past few years, you’d be mistaken. The truth is, people have been crazy about cats long before the internet came along.
Ever since the invention of the camera, cats have found their way into people’s photos and videos. These historical treasures would have been lost if not for Paula Leite Moreira, a Brazilian journalist who took it upon herself to collect them.
Paula is absolutely fascinated by these incredible photos, and her interest in them started back in 2020 during the quarantine period. She found them so captivating that she decided to gather and share them online. She says:
“I loved delving into old records and decided to share what I found, resulting in the realization of this project.”
Here are some of the photos she’s been sharing:
