Hollywood Cats showcases an incredible selection of photographs, taken during the golden age of Hollywood, of stars with their cats, celebrating and documenting this special relationship. Both Carole Lombard and Greer Garson manage to look even more sultry draped alongside their feline friends; photographs of madcap duo Laurel and Hardy playing with a kitten are both comical and endearing. Perhaps the most famous and arguably the most important of all Hollywood cats is the MGM lion, Leo, who appeared (and still appears) on every MGM movie.

Hollywood Dogs showcases a fine selection of photographs taken from the famous John Kobal collection. Taken between 1920 and 1960, during the 'Golden Age of Hollywood', they feature stars including Humphrey Bogart, Buster Keaton and Audrey Hepburn posing with dogs of every shape and stature.

John Kobal was an authority on Hollywood portrait photography, who established a preeminent collection of works featuring iconic stars of the day. Many of his photographs were used for publicity purposes, often featuring the stars with their dogs.
