Located on the fourth floor of 87 Paseo de la Reforma in Mexico City, the Museo del Gato (Cat Museum) has just opened its doors.
Designed as a one-year pop-up project, this unique venue combines cutting-edge technology, scientific education, and support for animal welfare.
A three-stage immersive journey
The 45-minute tour allows visitors to explore the lives of cats in several different ways:
Using animated dioramas and a video-mapping system designed by a local creative studio, one area retraces the evolution of felines and the history of their domestication.
Through a stray cat's eyes
Equipped with virtual reality headsets for the Perspectiva Felina VR experience, visitors are invited to explore the urban environment through the eyes and ears of a stray cat.
An interactive photo area features giant installations, such as a "Cat Lady" armchair, an animated sculpture that mimics a cat's breathing, and a digital wall where visitors can record their own pet's paw print.
