Stubbs the Cat
Honorary Mayor of Talkeetna, Alaska
In office
July 18, 1997 – July 21, 2017
Personal details
Born April 12, 1997
Talkeetna, Alaska, U.S.
Died July 21, 2017 (aged 20)
Talkeetna, Alaska, U.S.
Stubbs (April 12, 1997 – July 21, 2017)[1] was a cat who was the mayor of Talkeetna, Alaska from July 1997 until his death.[2]
Stubbs was described as a tourist attraction,[3] having been flooded with cards and letters, and drawing 30 to 40 tourists each day (most of whom were en route to other Alaska destinations, such as Denali)[4] who hoped to meet "the mayor". Stubbs's position was honorary, as the town is only a historic district.[5]
Every afternoon, Stubbs went to a nearby restaurant and drank water laden with catnip out of a wineglass[6][7] or margarita glass.[8]
He's got the face for politics! & the tongue, to lap up all the campaign contributions!
