Caturday: Good Cat Hunting in Athens

Good Cat Hunting

Welcome back to Caturday where I feature a photo of cats I meet during my travels.

Today’s black cat was trying to hunt pigeons at the Sanctuary of Dionysus in Athens. It was actually too far away from the birds to do a lion-like pounce.

The birds flew away even before the cat reached within 2 meters distance.

Poor cat.

Curious about other meows?

Start of Caturday: Mau in Giza, Egypt

I’ve never owned a cat because my mom hates the smell of cat poo so I like looking at pictures of cats on the internet.

Since travelling, I’ve taken pictures of the few cats I’ve seen. I never pet them because the doctor warned that even cats can spread rabies.

To celebrate the greatness of cats (and the weekends), I will start a segment called Caturday. This is in honor of the original Caturday.

The first entry is a mau (Egyptian for cat) from a restaurant in Giza where my tour group had lunch.

The cat was actually cute and not as grouchy as he is in the photo.
