Have you ever heard of a cat lying on a couch? Of course you have cuz' that's what they do!!!
This cat I am going to tell you about isn't lying on a couch... IT IS LYING ON THE GRASS ON TOP OF THE RIDE SPLASH MOUNTAIN AT DISNEYLAND!!!
Here's the story, For my 9th birthday I took my friend Shannon to Disneyland and when we were over in Critter Country we looked up at the Spash Mountain exit and there he/she was rolling in the grass purring! We couldn't believe our eyes, a CAT at DISNEYLAND!!!
When we got home I searched on the Internet and saw the story of his appearance.
"Yes, it's true Disneyland is home to many cats and it has been since 1960 or so. Years ago when building the now-defunct Sleeping Beauty's castle walk through, over 100 cats were discovered hiding in the castle. Instead of letting them go elsewhere Disneyland decided to keep the animals and allow them to stay in the park. After all, they controlled the rodent problem (just don't tell Mickey!)
It's a rare sighting so I am sure glad I caught a glimpse!!!
That's a great story--not very many people see things like that. I love your blog :)
ReplyDeleteKatie,
ReplyDeleteYou are a great writer! I love this story; I never knew this about Disneyland! Did you know that there weren't any trashcans on Disneyland's opening day? :)
Love you!
