This is a famous picture from 1925 (cropped), in Manhattan of a mom cat crossing the street with her kitten with the assistance of a traffic cop. http://my.fit.edu/~rosiene/1925cat.jpg
According to my friend Dave who researched it, he says, "(Taken) at the corner of Lafayette and Walker, a copper, officer James Cudmore, is
stopping traffic while Blackie, a momma cat, is crossing the street carrying
a newborn by the scruff with her mouth." He went on to say that, "Blackie had lived in "a castle beneath a desk" at the Atwater Company, to the right-hand side of the photo. She disappeared to give birth which was leftwards, the west side of Broadway, and was returning her litter of five, one-by-one, to her home when the picture was taken."
