We recently got back from a fun trip to Disney World in Orlando Florida. I’m a long time Disney fan and I always like the fact that almost every Disney animated feature has had a cat in it. While we were in Disney World I was looking forward to seeing some of the Disney cat characters I enjoyed seeing in Pinocchio, Aristocrats, 101 Dalmatians and other Disney Classics.
After a few days in the parks I was hard pressed to find a single cat. There were no Disney Cat characters walking about, not even a Disney Cat T-Shirt. It was disappointing but eventually I did manage to find a cat or two. Two days later I hit the mother-load at the Disney Villains store in the Hollywood Studios Park. These four Siamese Cats were the center piece of the store and they were amazing. Each Cat had their own personality and expression.

I got a few different images of the Siamese Cats to share with you. Afterwords I found a few other cats. The Cheshire cats were actually right under the Siamese Cats. The Stone Cat I saw outside the Haunted House ride in the Magical Kingdom. I think I might suggest Disney add a few more Cats around their parks in hopes that well see more Cats on our next trip to Disney World.
Lots of Cheshire Cats

We had the same experience in Anaheim at DisneyWorld. My daughter loves cats and we were disappointed to not see any. Saw plenty of Mickie, Minny, and Goofy though.
Thanks for this! I was just sitting here with my Siamese cat, Xanadu, thinking about our upcoming trip to Disney World! I was hoping to find something Siamese related and now I know where I’ll be going… Thanks!
you need to go back–cats figure prominently in the pirate ride, they play a pivotal role at the point where the cast member gets shanghai’ed in the great movie ride; cats are every room in it’s a small world, particularly if you count big cats; you hear them in two different rooms of the haunted mansion; they are all over the murals in asia in animal kingdom; they are in the egypt scene in spaceship earth; well, you get the idea. Cats are everywhere in disney world.
