Scat Cat Lounge: 9 Design Details for the Aristocats Bar on Disney Treasure

The Disney Treasure is set to debut the world's first lounge themed to the 1970 Walt Disney Animation Studios film The Aristocats when the ship launches in December 2024. Named Scat Cat Lounge, the venue blends the atmosphere of an old-school jazz club with nine layered design details drawn directly from the beloved film.

Disney Cruise Line has revealed the Scat Cat Lounge, a brand-new bar and lounge aboard the Disney Treasure inspired by the 1970 Walt Disney Animation Studios classic The Aristocats. Opening when the ship sets sail in December 2024, it marks the first real-world venue themed to the film and its iconic jazz-infused world.

From Film to Ship: The Aristocats Lounge Arrives

Located centrally off the Grand Hall, Scat Cat Lounge draws design cues from the Grand Hall's Agrabah-inspired architecture, blending a complementary color palette and Middle Eastern décor seamlessly with the lounge's jazz-club aesthetic. The result is a venue that honors The Aristocats at every turn — from the front door to the back bar.

Nine Design Secrets Inside Scat Cat Lounge

• A Familiar-Looking Carpet: The lounge's floor covering is inspired by the ornate French-style rugs from Madame Adelaide Bonfamille's Parisian home, recognizable to fans of the film.
• Caution — Wet Paint: Colorful prints decorating the piano reference the scene where Toulouse leaves paint-covered paw marks on the keys.
• Agrabah-Inspired Architecture: Centrally located off the Grand Hall, the lounge takes design cues from the adjacent Agrabah theming, creating a cohesive visual flow.
• Themed Craft Cocktails: The bar menu features The Aristocats-inspired drinks including the Créme de la Créme Martini and The Cat Drink.
• Silhouetted Cat Parade: A procession of character silhouettes greets guests at the entrance, leading the way into the venue.
• Scat Cat's Horn Door Handle: The front door features a sculpted handle shaped after Scat Cat's signature trumpet.
• Hidden Roquefort: Rather than the traditional Hidden Mickey, this venue hides depictions of Roquefort — the devoted mouse companion of Duchess and her kittens — throughout the space.
• Piano-Key Statement Wall: A black-and-white striped wall running through the center of the venue frames a neon sign bearing the lyrics "Ev'rybody Wants to be A Cat," honoring music's central role in the film.
• The Team's Cats Behind the Art: A poster outside the lounge features an instrument-playing cat collage where each cat is rendered in the likeness of a real pet belonging to a member of the design and build team.

What This Means for Disney Treasure Guests

The Scat Cat Lounge represents a rare first for Disney Cruise Line — translating a beloved but rarely themed film into a full bar-and-lounge experience aboard a flagship ship. Travelers aboard the Disney Treasure this December will be the first guests in the world to experience it. For the latest on Disney Treasure dining and entertainment, visit DisneyCruise.com.
