Hot Summer Cat Events from L.A. To N.Y.
A sizzling trio of celebrity cat events promise hot August nights for good kitty causes. Mark your calendars.
August 2, in New York at the Algonquin Hotel
My favorite celebrity cat in NYC is Matilda the Algonquin Hotel cat and summer would not be complete without attending her birthday party. I’ll be there with bells on and if you’re in the area, I hope you attend. This year, I can’t wait to meet special guest, Tara The Hero Cat. This year the event benefits one of our favorite animal advocacy groups, The Mayor’s Alliance of New York.
For more info about the Matilda event and the amazing work the Mayor’s Alliance does to helps animals, please visit Matilda, The Algonquin Cat Benefit Birthday Party.
AUGUST 6, IN CHICAGO AT METRO CHICAGO.
It’s no secret how I feel about Lil BUB but I’m curious as a cat how this wild combo will work on stage. Bub is always Bub but will David Yow, artist, punk rocker, cat man turned cat writer wow? I’ll be speaking with the man himself next week and sharing an exclusive interview, book review/giveaway next Sunday. If you’re in the Chicago area, you’ll want to get your paws on some Bub/Yow tix pronto. Info and tickets
Yow’s book, Copycat: And A Litter Of Other Cats will be released from Askashic Books on August 5. I already have a copy and let’s just say, it’s unlike any cat book I’ve ever seen.
AUGUST 9, 2014 IN LOS ANGELES, CA. AT THE BELASCO THEATRE
Our friends at Kitty Bungalow’s Charm School for Wayward Cats, a kitten rescue organization in L.A. are hosting their annual CATbaret, a star-studded event to benefit kittens. Whether you’re a cat lover or a theater lover, come out for an unforgettable night of sensational singers and dazzling dancers hosted by funnyman Fred Willard! The one night only spectacular features the hidden talents of your favorite celebrities from Castle, CSI, Lord of the Rings, So You Think You Can Dance and many more!
Celebrity cat Lll BUB and her Dude Mike are special guests and Nora, the famed piano cat will perform a jazz piece composed our friend Alana Grelyak of Cat in The Fridge and the web series CATastrophes on Animalist.com
Cat Vs. Zombies is their latest, quirky, funny webisode. Last week’s starred LlL BUB. Every episode is wildly creative and different. You won’t want to miss any, so be sure to subscribe.
We hope to see you here on Monday. If all goes well our Boomer Muse blog will relaunch in Beta by Monday at LaylaMorganWilde.com. Just in time for our 6th blogoversery and my birthday week! When the link works you’ll know it’s LIVE, blast-off, woo hoo!
And until then, how about another vote for us which will help cats? Thanks and purrs. Vote at Pettie Awards.

Useful info. Lucky me I found your site by
chance, and I’m surprised why this coincidence didn’t happened in advance!
I bookmarked it.

Sylvester wants to perform at a CATbaret…and he already has his tuxedo!

Bummer, TW is busy August 2nd but she wouldn’t be invited anyway. What great events. Hope they’re all successes.
Tamago
Those are such great events! If I go to NYC in the future, I’ll definitely stay at Algonquin 🙂
Love the video. It’s so cute and funny!
Angel AbbyGrace
Oh we can’t wait to hear more about those upcoming events you’ll be attending!
meowmeowmans
Those are some awesome events! Kind of makes us wish we had a teleportation device (or a private jet and lots of money) so we could see them all! 🙂
Deb Barnes - Zee and Zoey
Oh gosh… I sure wish I lived in the NYC area!! What fun!!!
easy rider
I would like to visit Catbaret (ok not me I’m a dog… my staff would like to be there… but wait… that could be interesting when I would join them….). The cat fashion show on broadway sounds great too! Why we haven’t such cool events?
Traveling Cats
Wonderful. What a pity I don’t live in the US.
Sparkle
What great events! My human is envious of the people who get to see Matilda and David Yow at their events – at least she’ll probably be attending the CATbaret event.
