Mindful meoweler tips

Patiala's traditional clothing

Cats should be aware of the rich cultural heritage of Patiala and the city's unique style of traditional clothing, especially the Patiala salwar - a loose, comfortable outfit with lots of folds and pleats.

Patiala Peg

Cats should try the famous Patiala Peg - a double or triple measure of whiskey served in a large glass. Though be sure not to overdo it!

Palace of Patiala

Cats should visit the stunning Palace of Patiala which is now a museum housing artifacts from the royal family. Its grandeur and ornate architecture are sure to impress any cat.
