Cats of the World

I read about that too - amazing story - and a lovely puss to boot!

Ok, he's NOT a cat

But he's some big bunny! Imagine that rabbit stew - enough to feed the multitudes (except I hate rabbit stew, possibly as a result of my childhood experiences).

He is a lovely bunny BTW.

But is he THE Big Bunny?

The Cat City, Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo
We had cafe cats, roundabout cats, travel tour cats, long house cats, waterfront cats.......the list goes on

Only came across thread from the timeline posts, would't have seen it otherwise

Ahh - I'd forgotten the cats in the Coliseum in Rome - they were there in 1982

These photos are in Riga, Latvia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_House_(Riga)

Some more, firstly, Damascus, waiting outside a butchers shop.


Latakia, waiting for scraps to be thrown down from an upstairs balcony.


Not cats, but hey I like all animals. Sheep and shepherds near Urgarit just north on Latakia, one of the first alphabets was found here.



And what should be a happy cow nearby.

As per a couple of posts above, cats in Riga.


Last one is "what are you looking at?"

Some more from Riga, cat building as above:





Like this idea!

Some more.

This was on the ferry from Riga to Stockholm and it's owners were from Belarus and going to Norway for a holiday, complete with very inquisitive cat.



By the way, visit the Baltic states if you can, they are magical!

This one almost looks like a Turkish Van.

Our cats were never keen on walking on lease - would just sit down and roll over so we always gave up.
The cat on the ferry looks like he/she's taking it all in.
A friend of a friend has a cat who travels with them in the car to Melbourne, Sydney or wherever. He was very skittish and frightened when they got him as a young cat but they discovered that if they put him in little pjs (yes you read it correctly) he would settle immediately so now he has quite a wardrobe of outfits.

We tried with our Burmese boy (cossie) after he came home one morning smelling of someone else's perfume. He didn't like the harness, so in the end he became an indoors cat only, although I did build quite an extensive 'run' for them.

Here is poor old Cossie, no he isn't dead (not then anyway), it was a very hot day!




This is his mate, she is still with us still looks for him as they were mostly like this:



OK, back to the subject at hand, more cats in Damascus.

 

[Cossie]

More from Damascus.


One from Aleppo



and two from Baalbek in Lebanon.

I could look at pictures of cats for ever. A friend and I walk on Sunday mornings and there is a young cat that often runs out to meet us, though it is usually about a block away from what we think is here actual home.
Love the pics of your cats too!

My wife is cat mad, on my insistence we only have one, but too many cat ornaments in the house to count. Vet visit for a checkup yesterday, weighs in at 7.2k, not fat just big. Here he is with one of his many "friends"

In Lima

then there is a park down near Miraflores which is known for its cat population - people just come to hang out with them.

Dozens of them curled up in flower beds

This guy had a stomach warmer and bag watcher!

Kitty pile!

and then in Cusco - he was watching another cat across the street. The only 2 we saw given the number of dogs around

And this guy in Lima - I am a sucker for a ginger as I have one myself

Hiding out in the petunias in La Alhambra, Granada last week.
