Cats + Puns = Etti-Cat, an awesome series of New York City subway posters created in the 1960s that used an adorable tuxedo cat spokes-cat to promote respectful behavior. Etti-Cat encouraged subway riders to refrain from defacing the trains, warned them against littering, and encouraged them to offer their seats to the elderly.

The Etti-Cat posters are currently on display as part of an exhibit entitled Transit Etiquette Or: How I Learned To Stop Spitting And Step Aside In 25 Languages at the New York Transit Museum Gallery Annex through October 20.
