Cat versus dog. It’s a feud as old as time. But in fashion at least, felines are purring ahead in the popularity stakes. The model Claudia Schiffer attended the London premiere of Argylle on Wednesday night with her cat, Chip, in a custom backpack complete with clear plastic dome to ensure photographers captured the Scottish fold’s best angles. Chip stars in the new thriller, directed by Schiffer’s husband, Matthew Vaughn.
Described by Schiffer as a “nepo cat”, Chip not only acts but also has his own dedicated Instagram account (14,000 followers and counting). This week Chip launched a “paw-tobiography”, an illustrated book charting how he escaped “a supermodel’s shadow”.
