In 1955 when Disney opened, they were quick to realize there would be a rodent problem. Today over 200 cats roam the grounds. They have permanent feeding stations, and they also receive spaying, neutering and vaccinations services. There are even Instagram feeds and YouTube videos devoted to them. What a life huh?

And you never see them. I went to Disneyland last month, and didn’t see a single cat (or rodent). LOL It’s a good life for cats that might be put down otherwise.

I have been to Disneyland several times and I have never seen a single cat. They are supposed to sleep in Sleeping Beauty Castle.

I'm sure they can sleep anywhere. I wonder if they have cat wranglers to keep them from getting out into areas they don't want them in.

@celticeagle - Cats usually dislike crowds, no need to keep them from getting into crowded areas.

Once they get into an area it's hard to get rid of them.

I think so too. All the people probably isn't fun for them. And the noise.
