    113 cats 243 elephants

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If Sam subtracts 17 elephants from his collection, he has 339 stuffed animals that are 2/3 elephants and 1/3 cats.

    The number of cats is 339/3 = 113.

    The number of elephants is 356 - 113 = 243 = 2·113 + 17.

    Sam has 113 cats and 243 elephants.
