On the Ples embankment, next to the very dock where the parachute of Sergey Sergeevich Paratov, beautifully played by Nikita Mikhalkov, was approached by tourists, two relatively young sculptures that have become just a few famous sights cities. On both sides of the river Shokhonka, which flows into the Volga, the "Pleskaya cat" and "Dachnitsa" are comfortably settled
Unusualness of this small sculpture and that it is made of concrete in order to avoid vandalistic manifestations , and that the cat of the fly is depicted with human thoughtfulness in the eyes, looking at the water surface of the Volga.
"The Plesk cat" by the Belarusian sculptor Oleg Illarionov, the friend of the family of the artist Vitaly Panchenko, was installed in Ples on the waterfront in September 2008.
Cat Mucha now lives on a small concrete pedestal that has been empty for many years, although once there was a sculpture of a gypsy girl with an oar. So the "Pleskaya cat" became one of the symbols of the city and blended harmoniously with the landscape of the Plesa embankment.
- Address: Ples, embankment of the Volga, ul. Soviet, near the house 77.
