Hey cat lovers and Disney Animation enthusiasts! An exciting new lounge inspired by the 1970 Walt Disney Animation Studios classic, “The Aristocats”, is set to debut aboard the Disney Treasure when it embarks on its maiden voyage this December. Named after the beloved music aficionado feline from the movie, Scat Cat Lounge will bring the swinging penthouse performance of “Ev’rybody Wants to be a Cat” to life for the first time. The venue is designed to blend the sophistication of a classic jazz club with artistic elements paying homage to “The Aristocats”. Eager to uncover more about this fabulous feline-themed venue? Stay tuned for nine intriguing design secrets that guests can anticipate when they step into Scat Cat Lounge!

• A Familiar Carpet: Those familiar with “The Aristocats” will recognize the carpet in Scat Cat Lounge, inspired by the ornate French rugs found in Madame Adelaide Bonfamille’s elegant Parisian home.
• Caution – Wet Paint: Recreating the playful moment from the film, the piano in Scat Cat Lounge will feature colorful prints that pay homage to Toulouse's mischievous paint-covered paw mark.
• Agrabah Inspiration: Drawing from the Agrabah-inspired architecture of the Grand Hall, Scat Cat Lounge will reflect a similar design aesthetic, featuring a harmonizing color palette and Middle Eastern décor.
• Double Delicious Cocktails: The lounge's special cocktail menu will celebrate “The Aristocats” with drinks like the Créme de la Créme Martini and The Cat Drink.
• The Cat Parade: Silhouetted cats representing characters from the film will welcome guests at the entrance of Scat Cat Lounge and guide them into the venue.
• Scat Cat’s Horn: The lounge's front door will feature a sculpted handle resembling Scat Cat’s signature instrument, kicking off the “The Aristocats” theming.
• Hidden Character Depictions: While Hidden Mickeys are a staple of Walt Disney Imagineering designs, Scat Cat Lounge will feature hidden depictions of Roquefort, Duchess and her kittens' devoted mouse companion.
• Musical Ode: A striking black and white-striped wall in the center of the venue will display a groovy neon sign with the lyrics, “Ev’rybody Wants to be A Cat," paying homage to the film’s musical essence.
• Cats Behind the Magic: The funky poster outside Scat Cat Lounge will hold a hidden secret – each depicted cat will represent a beloved pet of someone from the project team involved in designing and constructing the lounge.
