Hamlet’s Hamlet
(Feline Greeter 24×7 at The Algonquin Hotel) …. It was not unusual for the hotel guests to take notice of Hamlet, and I’m reminded of the following conversation.
Hamlet at the front desk with his robotic cat and toys
“I’ve seen you with Hamlet before?” said the guest. “He really lets it rip with you. The desk told me some rescuers found him on the street, and he was later moved to a shelter before he moved here.”
“Yes, that was almost two years ago,” I said.
“So what’s your connection?” said the guest.
As Hamlet worked out, I told the guest how I was The Cat Therapist and helped with his transition to the Algonquin — from street cat to “Feline Greeter”.
“Does Hamlet still need therapy?” the guest continued.
“He’s a working cat. It’s a 24/7 gig,” I said. “These sessions are tune-ups — a legacy from Matilda, his predecessor. I used to give her Reiki treatments.
