| Played by six gray, domestic shorthair tabby cats, "Walter" appeared in three Chevy Silverado (Trail Boss) TV commercials in 2021 and 2022. The first one, entitled "Cat", aired during the 2021 Summer Olympics. The sequel, called "Walter in Winter," was broadcast during the 2021 NFL playoffs, the 2022 Winter Olympics, and 2022 [[List of Super Bowl commercials|Super Bowl LVI]] (in spots of 15-seconds, 30-seconds, and 60-seconds).<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Cat Enjoys Dog Days Of Winter For Chevy Silverado, Commonwealth-McCann |url=https://www.shootonline.com/video/cat-enjoys-dog-days-winter-chevy-silverado-commonwealthmccann |access-date=2022-11-13 |website=SHOOTonline |language=en}}</ref> Ad-makers and reporters say that Walter the cat does things people would expect a dog to do, but he is a cat, so he showed what cats can do.
