Stray cats in the castle
The park has become known for its 'Disneyland cats' who roam the establishment, but Walt wasn't initially keen to let them stay.
In fact, the businessman first tried to get staff members to adopt them when he discovered that strays were sleeping in 'Sleeping Beauty's Castle' when it opened in 1955.
Eventually, he decided to let them stay in an effort to keep pests to a minimum.
