Matilda’s birthday party at the Algonquin Hotel in New York City never fails to disappoint. It’s a big shindig, complete with fabulous food and drink, stunningly-dressed guests and, of course, costumed cats!
As usual, this year’s event was a sold-out affair. My cat, Milo, was fortunate enough to be invited back as a mewdel. He wore the uniform of a dog catcher. Milo did his job well and even caught a pug while on duty!
While people always think he is unhappy mewdeling, I think he just has bitchy resting face. I only ever see a glimpse of a smile when I turn on the bathroom water faucet or take out his laser toy. Otherwise, Milo just has that slightly grumpy look going on!
Milo’s friends, Tigger and Zeus, were fellow mewdels, and he even made some new acquaintances, like Tigger’s new baby sis, Purrcilla and Thunder Folds.

We can only hope to be invited back again to see what creations Ada Nieves will dream up next year.
Until then…..
