Ode to a Grecian Cat

I’m in Greece visiting D.’s family for the holiday. I have another post draft started in my head, but today I’m posting something that’s purely for fun.

Greece is home to many stray cats. Although, sadly they’re everywhere, thankfully, there seem to be cat people in most neighborhoods who tend to the different flocks and provide fresh water and food, even sometimes shelter.

I thought I’d share some cat sightings grouped by themes. Hope you enjoy.

This one seemed awfully regal next to a column in the archeology museum near D.’s family.

Cats Training Their People Well

Elaborate kitty station
Upstairs, downstairs?
This one took residence in a hotel lobby
Tourists, when you eat, we eat, understand?

Hope you enjoyed a little glimpse of kitty life in Greece.

(* To dog lovers out there, I would love to give equal time to dogs, but they’re just not as easy to snap.)

  1. Wonderful shots of cats – I can’t limit it to one favorite photo. I do enjoy the cats waiting to be fed in the restaurant. They all look well cared for. We had to have the neighbor stopped from feeding the local stray since they were not neutered, and we were being overrun. The township fine of a $1,000 was enough to stop her. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas in Greece!
