The Algonquin has had a cat in residence since the 1930s when a stray cat wandered into the hotel.

I'd love to visit her and try one of The Algonquin's $18(!) Matilda cocktails! :)
ReplyDeleteCatsparella: Me too! She is just a gorgeous kitty.
ReplyDeleteI just looked up the ingredients of the Matilda cocktail: Belvedere Pomarancza, Cointreau, Freshly Squeezed Lemon & Orange Juice, Splash of Perrier Jouet.
Maybe in the spring we could make a run into the city and meet her!
Catsparella, Ann, let get drinks! Can I have mine in my bubblie fountain? hmmmm I wonder if she's (Matilda) is single...
ReplyDeleteI love the painting and I like Matilda's couch !
ReplyDeleteThank you to sharing : )
She has a much cooler life than I do. Go Matilda! Bring on the cocktails!
ReplyDeleteKoko: Yes! Maybe you and your Mum can come out to NYC and have drinks with Matilda, Catsparella and me! You and Mady would make a lovely couple! (perhaps we could arrange a tete-a-tete!)
ReplyDeleteWe could be the new Algonquin Round Table! And you can join us Mr. Puddy and Angie! :)
Mr. Puddy: I want Matilda's couch in a large size. It is very stylish! And I agree, it is a very stunning painting.
Angie: haha! What a life she has! I feel uncool next to Matilda too! She is quite the cool cat. Cool job. Cool NYC chick. And even a cool cocktail named after her. Bring on the cocktails!
How beautiful, I just know she will do Matilda II proud!!!
ReplyDeleteBrian: I think she will too. Everyone who sees Matilda's pix wants to meet her!
ReplyDeleteWow, the mom would love to stay at a hotel that has a resident cat. Very cool. She's a gorgeous ladycat who will be living a very pampered life--as she deserves!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a purrfect job for a kitteh. Plus, she is quite a beauty (though our Mom thinks all kittehs and goggies are beautiful).
ReplyDeleteKea: I'll never stayed at a hotel with a resident cat, only a resident dog and a llama! But I agree with your Mom, I would like to stay there too. (although I would have to think of a good reason as I am only 13 miles away from the hotel!) Matilda does deserve a good life.
ReplyDeleteThe Whiskeratti: It is the perfect job. I'm wondering if there is some way Matilda and I could switch careers. Hmm. That is true: all animals are beautiful.
