“Coraline’s Curious Cat Trail,” the installation of 31 cat sculptures inspired by Laika’s first animated feature, “Coraline,” motivated fans of the movie and feline fanciers alike to take photos and share social media posts of the cats and their locations in Portland, until the cats’ farewell weekend, on Oct. 12-13.
