Those of you who've seen The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly probably know what I'm referring to; that scene maybe 100 minutes in in which Blondie, having been captured by Angel Eyes and his men, is sitting in a decrepit building and, inexplicably, is holding a kitten in his hat. He pets it a bit, and puts it down, and that's the last we see of it.
Now, I recently purchased the DVD with the additional 18 minutes of footage, and I haven't watched it straight through yet, so it's possible the answer is in there, but either way: what on earth is up with that kitten? Is it just some quirky little moment of contrast?
I've heard a few people simply attribute it to an attempt to establish the character's "softer" side (which we see more instances of later), but I thought I'd ask, anyway.
