Ned was found outside a gas station in Newark, New Jersey. Hungry for food (and fame) Ned endeared himself to many a filmmaker to come through Reznick’s office. It wasn’t until The Grandfather that he got his break as “dry-food eating cat.” Edie, the most annoying / adorable cat in the world, was adopted from atop the highest perch at an animal shelter, defeating throngs of cats and kittens fighting for a home. Ned nearly beat her out for a role in The Grandfather, but fortunately for Edie, Ned doesn’t meow. Edie, however, never stops meowing – and doesn’t eat dry food – so they were both able to share the role.
