What you should know about The Cat Museum
Features history of cats around the world as well as touching stories of cats and their humans, and the important roles they play in each community. It is a platform to display the creative works of local artists whose lives have been touched by kitty karma.
The Museum.
The CAT MUSEUM, MUSES & MANSION pays tribute to the cats of Singapore by tracing the history of local Malayan cats, cats that came on ships with our forefathers from India and China, the arrival of British cats during the colonization period and Japanese cats during occupation, and develops a hypothesis of what is affectionately branded as the Lion City Kitty™ - the Singapore resident cats.
The Muses gallery is dedicated to Singapore cats by showcasing their history and origins. Also known as Singapura, the city nation is named after the largest cat, the lion ("Singa" means lion and "Pura" means town or city) and how apt that the city now has its own kitty landmark!.
The Muses.
A highlight of Muses are the real Singapore cats which are orphans looking for a family. Visitors can admire the specially curated cat photographs, art and crafts from around the world, including the founder’s personal collection and commissioned pieces.
The Muses is also a space for all Singaporeans and artists (young and old) to come paint, draw and photograph the kitties. Visitors have the chance to play with them, photograph them and maybe fall in love with a ‘muse’ and add a member to their family. A wall called "Every Singaporean Cat" is for all residents to pledge proudly that they live with a Lion City Kitty™ and pin a photo of their cat with its name and district on the large Singapore map.
