      🏛 Cat Yelisei and Cat Vasilisa

      Малая Садовая ул., 8 и 3

      Two bronze cats on cornices facing each other — a monument to the cats that saved the city from rats after the Siege.

      • The cats were installed in 2000: the idea was Sergei Lebedev's, the sculptor Vladimir Petrovichev, the architect Larisa Domracheva.
      • Malaya Sadovaya became pedestrian in 1999, and a whole series of small sculptures appeared on it afterward.
      • Nearby are the little dog Gavryusha in a courtyard (1999) and the photographer with a bulldog (2003).
