Snapshot :: Project Kitty Runway a Success but Felines Look Nonplussed

Where: 59 W. 44th Street [map], New York, ny, United States, 10036

As we told you about before, the Project Kitty Runway went down at the Algonquin Hotel yesterday as a way to celebrate the house cat Matilda's 13th birthday and to help build awareness for the North Shore Animal League.

The Feline Fashion Show (their official name but we like PKR better) featured several cats in drag ranging from "an Elvis costume to a sequined satin dress." So...how exactly do you get a cat into an Elvis costume? Sedatives? It probably has to be one of those de-clawed house cats because we know our cat would not stand for that.

Humans meanwhile had a better time at the show sipping on $20 specialty drinks like the Purr-tini and the Pink Pussycat. Let's hope the fashion models were treated to an entire bag of catnip after their hard day on the runway.
