Everybody wants to be a cat, and that’s even more true aboard the Disney Treasure! A brand-new lounge themed to the 1970 classic The Aristocats will be among the offerings on the Disney Treasure when it sets sail this December.
What’s Happening:
- Named for everyone’s favorite music-loving feline from the film, Scat Cat Lounge will bring the groovy penthouse performance of “Ev’rybody Wants to be a Cat” into the real world for the first time. Plans for the venue combine the elegance of an old-school jazz club with artistic references to The Aristocats.
- The Disney Parks Blog shared a list of nine design secrets guests can look forward to discovering when they visit Scat Cat Lounge.
- A Familiar Looking Carpet: Fans of The Aristocats may recognize the carpet inside Scat Cat Lounge, inspired by the ornate French style rugs scattered throughout Madame Adelaide Bonfamille’s swanky Parisian home.
- Caution – Wet Paint: The playful scene from the The Aristocats film when Toulouse mischievously left his paint-covered paw mark on the piano will be represented in Scat Cat Lounge with colorful prints decorating the piano.
- Inspired by Agrabah: Centrally located off the Grand Hall, Scat Cat Lounge will take design cues from the Grand Hall’s Agrabah-inspired architecture with a complementary color palette and Middle Eastern décor that will blend seamlessly with the storied theming of the venue.
- Double Delicious Craft Cocktails: Scat Cat Lounge will serve a special menu of cocktails that celebrate The Aristocats, including the Créme de la Créme Martini and The Cat Drink.
- The Cats Go Marching: A parade of silhouetted cats, all representing characters from the film, will welcome guests to Scat Cat Lounge at the entry and lead the way into the venue.
- Scat Cat’s Horn: The Aristocats theming will begin at the front door of the lounge with a sculpted handle that resembles Scat Cat’s signature instrument.
- Hidden Characters: Hidden Mickeys may be a hallmark of any Walt Disney Imagineering design, but at Scat Cat Lounge, hidden depictions of Roquefort, the devoted mouse companion of Duchess and her kittens, will reign.
- An Ode to Music: A black and white-striped statement wall will extend through the center of the venue, framing a groovy neon sign with the lyrics, “Ev’rybody Wants to be A Cat.” Reminiscent of piano keys, the wall will honor the important role that music played throughout the film.
- The Cats Behind the Magic: At first glance, the funky poster that will hang outside Scat Cat Lounge may not draw too much attention. However, the instrument-playing cat collage will have a secret! Each cat depicted in the artwork will be drawn in the image of a beloved pet belonging to someone from the project team that helped design and build Scat Cat Lounge.
