Mindful meoweler tips

Mardi Gras is a must-see

This festival is wild! Be sure to see the parades, wear your colorful beads, and enjoy the lively atmosphere.

Watch out for the humidity

The hot and humid weather in New Orleans can be tough for cats not used to it. Drink water and take breaks in the shade.

Take a streetcar ride

Tour the city like a local on one of the historic streetcars. They're a purrfect way to see the sights and stay cool in the shade.
