点评:Visiting the American Museum of the House Cat felt less like going to a museum and more like stopping by a fellow cat lover’s home — one with an unbelievable collection and an open-door vibe. From the second I walked in (with my own cat, Barb, in tow), we were both welcomed with warmth. Barb got treats, I got smiles, and the house cats on-site made sure we felt right at home as we explored.
The museum itself is packed with charm and personality. Every corner has something to discover — from ancient Egyptian cat artifacts to quirky mid-century toys, folk art, vintage posters, and cat-themed everything. You can feel the passion in every display, and honestly, I caught myself grinning more than once just soaking it all in.
As a cat lover, this place is basically my Disneyland. But even if you’re not a full-blown feline fanatic, there’s something here for everyone — whether it’s the history, the art, or the pure creativity of it all. Plus, proceeds support the Catman2 Shelter, a no-kill, cage-free sanctuary for cats, which just makes the whole experience feel even more meaningful.
It’s off the beaten path, but 100% worth the drive!
翻译:参观美国家猫博物馆,与其说是参观博物馆,不如说更像是拜访一位爱猫人士的家——那里藏品丰富,氛围轻松惬意。从我走进博物馆的那一刻起(我的猫咪芭芭拉也跟着我),我们就受到了热情的欢迎。芭芭拉得到了零食,我得到了笑容,而博物馆里的家猫也让我们在探索过程中感到宾至如归。
博物馆本身充满魅力和个性。每个角落都有值得探索的东西——从古埃及的猫咪文物到古怪的中世纪玩具、民间艺术、复古海报,以及各种以猫为主题的展品。你能在每一个展品中感受到热情,说实话,我不止一次地因为沉浸其中而咧嘴大笑。
作为一个爱猫人士,这里简直就是我的迪士尼乐园。即使你不是个十足的猫迷,这里也能满足每个人的需求——无论是历史、艺术,还是纯粹的创意。此外,所得收益还将用于支持 Catman2 收容所,这是一个不杀生、无笼养的猫咪庇护所,这让整个体验更加有意义。
虽然这里人迹罕至,但绝对值得一游!
