Back in March of 2012, Los Gatos Got Two New Cats, a Re-Posting From Then

Fellow Los Gatans, I’d like to introduce you the town’s newest landmarks, a new version of the cats, Leo and Leona (Leona being in the foreground) now gracing the parking lot across from Wallgreens at Highway 9 and Santa Cruz Avenue.   The sculptures were done by my old friend and native Los Gatan, Tony Lynott.   These eight foot high puppies, . . . oops, Felines, are fashioned after the two traditional sculptures just to the rear side of the newly reopened Cats restaurant outside of town on Highway 17.    While the traditional landmark cats we all are familiar with are fabricated out of cast concrete (nine feet high), these are a bit more solid, carved out of a special grade of Mexican marble.  This is a photo taken when the sun was still low in the morning sky and there was no light on the front of the sculptures.  We will provide more photos and information later on.  Tony needs a break.

I arrived in the parking lot around 7:00 a.m. this morning and the riggers . . .
