* In [[Disney/TheJungleBook the Disney version of Jungle Book]], this is applied to both Shere Kahn and Bagheera. The former overlaps with CatsAreMean by being portrayed as WickedCultured, whereas the latter subverts CatsAreMean by making Bagheera still a hero, but of the DeadpanSnarker[=/=]GoodIsNotNice variety.

* A story in MandrakeTheMagician has Narda, Mandrake's girlfriend, [[AllJustADream dream]] - [[OrIsIt or does she?]] - that cats are descendants of aliens that got stuck on Earth and used the primitive humans to survive, having lost their technology. (The same applies to dogs - the dog aliens and cat aliens were at war, and the hostility between cats and dogs are a remnant of this.)
Added DiffLines:
* In the children's series ''Dr Snuggles'' a recurring character is The Cosmos Cat, a perhaps SufficientlyAdvancedAlien that is a RubberForeheadAlien - its just that it is a cat that has the rubber forehead (antennas and such), not a human. (And at least in the Swedish dub, he speaks as an EruditeStoner.)

Of course in his case he is actually ''literally'' a fairy, and in that world fairies might as well as be [[StarfishAlien Starfish Aliens]] as well as aware of far more magic, knowledge, and philosophy than mere humans could, so some of this may be justified.
