Starting at Walt Whitman Park, we set the stage with the neighborhood's historical context, a time when cats were more than just pets—they were important members of the community. From there, the tour takes you to the Brooklyn Bridge, where you'll learn about the lesser-known feline companions who accompanied the workers as they built this world-famous structure.

At Brooklyn Borough Hall, we’ll uncover the story of a heroic cat whose quick thinking saved the day, making history in the process. This tale is just one of many that reveal the deep bond between the people of Brooklyn Heights and their cats.

Walking down Joralemon Street, you’ll discover how a small kitten brought good luck to the workers constructing the subway tunnel beneath the East River. This cat’s impact is a testament to how even the smallest creatures can play a big role in major city projects.

On Remsen Street, meet Harry, the firefighter cat, whose bravery and loyalty made him a beloved figure at the local firehouse. Harry’s story is a heartwarming example of the role cats have played in the everyday lives of New Yorkers.

The tour continues along the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, offering breathtaking views and the story of a community coming together, inspired by one special cat. Finally, the tour concludes at the Brooklyn Cat Café, where you can relax, enjoy a coffee, and meet some of the cats looking for their forever homes.
