'He Would Hiss On Camera Because He Is Not A Nice Guy': A Pawmazing Tribute To The Cat Who Played Jones In 'Aliens' (Viral Thread)

There are some cats out there who will forever and always be icons - like grumpy cat and longcat - but new star cats are being born all the time. Like Noddle - the cat who is perpetually having an existential crisis. Or Sorsha - the cat who always has a super sad face. Or Jinx - the perpetually spooked cat who looks like a stuffed animal. And we give all these cats all the love and all the shine that we can - because we think they're awesome, and they deserve it.

Today, we're paying a tribute to another cat. This one, like grumpy cat and longcat, is unfortunately no longer with us, but for some reason, twitter decided that now is the time to give him a whole lotta love, and we are all for that. So, meet Boris, the iconic cat who played Jones in 'Aliens'.

Like grumpy cat and longcat and all the other amazing kitties, we think it should be remembered and loved for forever, and that seems to be the case. Thank you for sharing these awesome photos with us. They truly made us smile today.

'He would hiss on camera because he is not a nice guy' is exactly how we imagine cat actors to be like, and we a- appreciate the honesty and b- love him even more because of it. What an icon. We hope he's getting many treats and naps and cuddles in heaven.
