Sorry if images didn’t post. Just wondering if anybody has had this problem with their tomato plants. Purple Cherokee planted in a raised bed. My theory is it is the neighborhood cat pissing and shitting in my raised bed. Could this be the problem or not?

Fusarium wilt virus, a soil born pathogen. Pull them up and only plant a variety that is disease and virus resistant like Celebrity.

I mainly plant Celebrity, they are resistant to verticillium wilt (V), fusarium wilt races 1 and 2 (F), nematodes, and tobacco mosaic virus (T).

Lost 2 cherokee purples this year. First one looked like curly Top virus, second appeared to be septoria. Both were next to completely healthy cherokees and romas that were twice their size when I pulled them.

FWIW, the one that appeared to have curly Top looked alot like yours, but had purple veins on the bottom sides of the leaves.
