**Bongo: Is He Just an Extraordinary Feline or an Alien Spy?**

As I sit here at The Kitty Beautiful, watching our gray resident superstar, Bongo, embark on yet another extraordinary business venture—Bongo's Paws-ports for Cats—I can’t help but ponder the cosmic conundrum that is Bongo. Is he simply an exceptional feline, or is he an undercover agent from an advanced alien civilization sent to observe us earthlings?

Think about it: cats have their humans wrapped around their little paws. While we serve them treats and scritch their heads, perhaps Bongo is secretly reporting back to his alien overlords, who are probably convinced that cats are the ones in charge! With this theory in mind, it’s no surprise that Bongo has been able to start up and run a Cat Council, solve crimes as a feline detective, and mentor shy cats looking to find their place in the world.

And let’s not forget his viral campaign, “Selfie with Bongo,” , which has sparked a movement to raise awareness about cat adoptions, or his fashionable t-shirts bearing his handsome face—after all, who wouldn’t want to wear the visage of a cat who’s made it big on social media? Orlando Magazine even dubbed him a “social media sensation!”

And let’s not forget his flourishing fashion institute, where he teaches the Dapper Dressing class. Who knew a cat could have such style?

So, as we ponder the profound questions of the universe, one thing is clear: whether he’s a clever cat or an extraterrestrial in disguise, we’re just glad to have Bongo here at The Kitty Beautiful.

His is definitely an enigmatic ambassador of pawsitivity and brings joy to our lives and to those feline lives that come through The Kitty Beautiful. Come visit us, snap a selfie with Bongo, and see for yourself why this gray wonder is the toast of the town—or perhaps the galaxy!

For more information, please visit our website www.TheKittyBeautiful.com or contact us directly at [email protected]. And remember, ! The Kitty Beautiful—where every cat has a story, and every visitor is family.

Today's episode of "Musings while airing out the cat lounge." My co-host in-training is Moana, aka MoMo. We discuss whether Bongo is an alien or a cat. No music because Alexa is still not working. We also discuss what is happening with Sheba.

01/28/2025

Bongo, a sleek, gray resident cat with an air of quiet authority, was perched atop the highest cat cage, a glint of mischief in his green eyes. He'd been observing his humans as they'd rushed about, muttering about needing to go to the county courthouse for passports. A seed of an idea had begun to sprout in Bongo's clever mind.

Over the years, Bongo had watched many of his cafe companions get adopted, their excited meows replaced with the quiet contentment of home. Lately, a familiar pang of loneliness had returned. A little harmless fun, he decided, was exactly what he needed.

He’d overheard Jac, the cat wrangler, asking what the requirements were for a human passport: state ID, birth certificate, parental information. Preposterous for a cat! But… what if it wasn’t?

Bongo hopped down, his paws landing softly on the floor. He’d done some ‘research’ - aka eavesdropping – and knew exactly how to make this feline-friendly. With a determined purr, he gathered some scrap paper and a black marker, which was easy to do since the cafe encouraged people who visited to draw and color, so lots of markers, colored pencils, crayons and drawing paper were within paws reach. He did have to liberate a small ink pad from the supply closet... that was a little trickier.

He was really proud of the sign he created (he had a little help from one of his humans) that said “Bongo’s Paws-port for Cats.” He carefully hung it near the comfy cat bed atop the highest cage in the middle of the hallway where it could easily be seen by any cat passing by. Then, he laid out his materials, a mischievous twinkle in his eye.

Sheba, a sleek, black royal cat, knew something was up and approached Bongo with a cautious air. "What's all this, Bongo?" she asked, her voice a soft meow.

“Cats need a paws-port in order to get adopted.” Bongo said, being very serious.

Sheba’s ears perked up. “Adopted?” she whispered, her eyes wide with hope.

"Indeed!" Bongo nodded. “A Paws-port is like a special ticket to your forever home.”

Hopper, a gray and white cat who was blind in one eye, leapt over to see what was going on. "A paws-port?" he questioned.

"Exactly," Bongo declared, gesturing with his paw to his setup. "In order to be very official, we will first need your front paw print. This is your ‘state ID,’ showing you're a bona fide Kitty Beautiful resident." He gently took Hopper’s paw and pressed it into the ink pad, then onto the paper.

Always curious, Moana, a pretty black and white cat with a sassy attitude, came over to see what was going on. “What’s the next step?” she asked, her voice filled with eager anticipation.

"Next, this is your ‘birth certificate’." Bongo explained, pressing Moana’s back paw onto the ink pad, then onto a separate sheet. "It proves you were born, you see. Very important when finding your forever home."

Pudding and Oreo, the tuxedo brothers, arrived, each one pushing the other aside in order to be near Bongo.

“Okay, guys,” Bongo announced, “the last step. We need your nose print. This will capture your ‘family lineage’. Since we don't know your parents, this will do.” He gently touched each of their noses to the inkpad, carefully transferring the prints to the papers.

The cats, caught up in the excitement of this newfound process, eagerly participated. Sheba purred as Bongo carefully inked her paw, a flicker of hope kindling in her eyes. Hopper, despite his hesitation, couldn’t help but feel a thrill at the prospect of finally being deemed "adoption-ready". Moana even bounced with energy, thrilled to be part of something special. Pudding and Oreo got caught up in the silliness of nose-printing and kept putting their nose prints on each other.

Bongo, watching them, couldn’t help but feel a surge of affection for these cats. He knew it wasn't real, but it seemed to bring them a little joy; it helped distract them from the waiting. He carefully filed away their "Paws-ports," which were now smudged with ink and filled with chaotic paw and nose prints.

As the afternoon wore on, the cats purred with nervous excitement. Every meow now held a tinge of "Am I Paws-port ready?" Bongo, despite his initial mischievous intentions, found himself caught up in the hope of the other cats.

He knew that Sheba would probably figure out that it wasn't real and would tell everyone else. But for now, he savored the purrs, the playful swipes, and the collective hope that filled The Kitty Beautiful cat cafe. Bongo had done more than just play a prank; he had given his fellow felines a shared experience, a moment of camaraderie and a sprinkle of extra magic to an otherwise ordinary day. And sometimes, he thought, a little bit of playful deception was just what was needed to keep the spirits high while they waited for their forever homes.

The Kitty Beautiful, A Cat Cafe -- Open Now!

The Kitty Beautiful is Orlando’s downtown cat cafe. We are open on a limited schedule during the pandemic for kitty snuggles and a limited menu of drinks and snacks. Located right downtown at 360 State Lane, Orlando, right next to the Bank of America building, we are open 12-6 Wednesday through Sundays, closed Monday and Tuesday.

Due to limited capacity during the current crisis, we recommend making reservations ahead of time through our web site at http://thekittybeautiful.com.

What’s a cat cafe? Think of a place where you can order a coffee from our purristas, have a fresh cold-pressed organic juice made right in front of you, drink a beer or glass of wine, locally sourced kombucha, and then go play in a room full of cats, adoptable from local non profit cat rescue CATS CAN. Cat time is $10 an hour which helps cover the cost of taking care of our kitty friends.

Parking can be difficult due to downtown construction. We recommend the Jefferson Street parking garage which is only two blocks away and a five minute walk, and only $2 an hour.
