KattenKabinet, Art museum dedicated to cats on Herengracht, Amsterdam, Netherlands.

The KattenKabinet displays paintings, sculptures, and diverse artworks depicting felines across multiple rooms of a canal house from 1667.

William Meijer established this museum in 1990 to commemorate his red tomcat John Pierpont Morgan, who lived from 1966 to 1983.

The museum collection presents cats in art throughout centuries, including works from partnerships with the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum.

Visitors can explore the museum Tuesday through Sunday between 12:00 and 17:00, with adult tickets priced at 12.50 euros.

Five resident cats roam freely through the exhibition spaces, allowing guests to observe both artistic representations and living felines.
