Financial District Cat Walking Tour

Meet near Zuccotti Park for a two-hour walk through the Financial District. The route follows true cat stories from the 1800s and early 1900s, including mousers in office buildings, federally employed postal cats, City Hall mascots, and a newspaper-office cat protected by the paper’s newsboys. You will also hear about P.T. Barnum’s cherry-colored museum cat and working cats tied to old shipping routes. Groups are capped at 12, and the walk covers about 1.5 miles through Lower Manhattan.
