"WORLD'S ONLY CATS THEATRE"

The Moscow Cat Circus, according to Yuri Kuchlakev:

"The cats are the stars of this show – they walk tightropes, balance balls on their noses, do paw-stands, jump from great heights, and unerringly negotiate complex mazes", says Kuklachev. "We glorify them and that's why we provide the cats with a traveling entourage including a vet, kitty caretakers and personal stylists to tend to the needs of our feline superstars."

Kuklachev's love for performing with cats runs in the family. His principal assistant and co-creator of the show is his son, Dimitri who is the leading expert on Russian TV in staging stunts with cats for commercials. Dimitri is also currently shooting a "How to…" - special about training and handling cats for a major Russian TV channel.

Yuri Kuklachev is a national institution, having performed in over 80 countries and received many prestigious international awards and accolades, including The People's Artist in Russia, Honorary Member of the American Clown Association, the Silver Clown Award in Monte Carlo, the Golden Clown Crown in Canada, the Golden Oscar in Japan, a San Marino postage stamp, and in France a chapter in their national grammar book titled "Lessons in Kindness".
