Not Parisien, but from Demel, though surely very Parisien in style non?
I have yet to see any Parisien carry around a cat in a bag on the Metro or cats at Laduree. Plenty of dogs but no cats! Have you?
This cat tea pot was in the window of what else? A Paris chocolate shop, Debauve & Gallais, perhaps the oldest chocolate shop in Paris.
A real Parisien chat, sitting outside guarding a shop at the Place du Palais-Royal - a guard cat.
Another "guard" cat spotted and photographed by Keith & Stephanie Carter on rue Bonaparte..

Keith & Stephanie also sent me this shot of a running Parisien chat at Pere Lachaise. BIG MERCI!
These elegant cats and dogs sit in Laduree's windows. Langues de chat(cat's tongue bisquits) for the cats. What's in the "French" Bulldog box? 
And exactly the right bag to carry them in!
A chocolate "Egyptian" cat at the Paris Salon du Chocolat...
More chocolate cats at the show. Is that a white whale with a volley ball attached?! Anyone have a clue what these cats are up to?
Lastly you have to include un souris (a mouse) from the Salon. Wait this is a famous fat cat created by Belgian artist, Philippe Geluck in collaboration with Chocolat Galler.
BONJOUR LES CHATS PARISIEN!

This has been a week of afternoon teas or rather hot chocolates...
Yesterday I finally hit DEMEL'S at the Plaza Hotel, New York...
Demel petit fours, watercolor on Etsy, 5" x 7" A plethora of goodies await you...
Demel's corner on the mezzanine...
It's really quite small, cosy and intimate. There were Europeans on either side of me...
There's a nice bar too - casual and convivial... 
Loads of DEMEL goodies to buy too... 
Like these divinely wrapped candied violets...
Langues de chat - Chocolate shaped as cats tongues."Each day comes bearing its own gifts. Untie the ribbons."
Ruth Ann Schabacker
Certainly plenty of chocolate bars... 
And chocolate gateaux up the whazoo...
Chocolate bundts... 
I got this mini Sacher Tort petit four..mitt schlag (whipped creme) of course ~ luscious.
And pink whatsits too - I want to paint these...
