Pure Happiness at KattenKabinet 🐱✨

If you know me, you know I absolutely love cats! They are my favorite animals in the world. So, visiting the KattenKabinet in Amsterdam was a dream come true!

I spent the whole day surrounded by cat-inspired art and, of course, some real furry friends. Archiving this memory on Wanda Nice Blog makes me smile so much. Look at that fluffy orange face! 🧡

I went to the Cat cabinets yesterday  if you are in Amsterdam, go

warning cuteness 

They have a lot of cool cat posters, and things at this museum so if you’re anywhere near Amsterdam go, I would love to bring some posters home but I live in the US so :(

Oh so yes, the bottom picture is a picture of Vladimir Lennon leader of the Soviet Union with his cat. They also had a Portrait. 

KattenKabinet 10/10 would visit and pet the cats that were there again (don’t pet the black-and-white ones tummy though he gets angry )

All love Abby s 2024

There is a cat museum in Amsterdam, KattenKabinet (Cat Cabinet). You can take virtual tour here. Somehow I didn’t know this until several days into my visit to the city, but I found my way there and walked through the curious, weird, exciting halls of the place. 

I saw a costume from Cats. Grizabella? The American Museum of Natural History appears to have the real one on display so not sure about the origins of this one: 

There is also an alter of sorts where people leave tokens and love notes to cats. I left a note about Alexandria (Stubby) who died in 2018, and a message about my dad who I know would’ve enjoyed visiting the wacky place. 

I took a picture of myself inside, looking out. I looked for cats and found a few as you can see in some of these pictures of the courtyard.

I lingered on the stairways, taking it all in. 

The second all vegan grocery store I went to was the vegan deli Vegabond where you can order from their menu or shop from a small grocery. 

I remember my afternoon between the cat museum and making my way over to the deli as a hurried one. I remember asking if I could charge my phone at the deli and fortunately the person working there was happy to help me out. There is something very humbling about handing your phone over to a stranger in a strange town to charge your phone. 

While the phone charged I caught my breath, had a snack and decided where I might go next.
