Who knew they made kitty kimonos? Halebop the cat did, apparently – let’s just hope he didn’t scratch the silk.

What a pretty kitty! One of Matilda’s esteemed guests mugs for the camera during the party. The event features a feline fashion show, with cats from the Westchester Cat show modeling fashions from Meow Wear.

Team Edward! Cat Baldwinner melts girls’ hearts on Wednesday in a Twilight-inspired outfit (and wig!).

It’s party time! Guest of honor Matilda dons a party hat for her 15th birthday bash at New York’s Algonquin Hotel Wednesday night. She’s quite popular with guests, and has complete run of the house – save for the kitchen and dining room.

This cat is just as mysterious as the Sphinx itself. Luckily, to loosen up the party, cocktails made the rounds, including the Matilda, Purr-tini and Pink Pussycat. Yum!

What are you looking at? Wannabe ginger cat Wizard gives the camera some angry eyes – but that costume sure is cute!

Will he grant Matilda a birthday wish? This fluffy friend brings a little mystique to the Algonquin bash, which raised funds for the North Shore Animal League.

You ain’t nothing but a … hound cat? Elvis shows that he’s definitely in the building, partying it up alongside animal-loving guests including Beth Ostrosky Stern.

Your orders? To party hard! Frenchy fetes his feline pal while keeping his cat-like composure. Dogs were on hand, too, with seven being adopted Wednesday night.

There’s the glitter! Kitty Diva adds a little shine to Matilda’s nighttime bash. The event was emceed by Must Love Cats host John Fulton, sang a birthday tribute.

No party is complete without a sweet treat! Adam Beckworth designed this feline-inspired confection, which humans (sorry kitties!) enjoyed as things wound down.
