Not sure I like this “tolerant” stay in myself…
Well, in a comment yesterday I mentioned that I would put the photo in of a kitty mama ran into (read: SEARCHED FOR!) at that mud place, and also ones that mama feeds in the cat refuge in Rome. Those poor little kitties are so hungry, and there is supposed to be someone there who takes care of the abandoned kitties, but right now in Italy, you never know who is going to be where on a job. They are cutting back on all fronts, mama says, so she’s going to look into the refuge office tomorrow and see if anyone is actually working there.
This is a sweet little mottled kitty who has a very bad back leg, and mama and papa want to know who is treating it. I’ll let you know.
These kitties have to be fed under a railing as there is a fence around the beautiful ruins in which they live.
And this is the kitty that mama discovered at the hot water place. She approached mama but was scared off when mama stood up too fast. Duh.
I am being VERY tolerant here of the wackiness that taking a vacation can cause in anthros. But I have to admit, this little sweetie touched my cold heart because she was sort of thin and needed brushing. Mama says animals are treated differently in various countries, and I guess mama is used to the love and attention that the French give their pets. But hey, this kitty lives on a large piece of land so I’ll bet there are LOTS of mice and things, whatever they are.
HEY, she is sort of the reverse of ME. I have a black coat with a white spot! But I would have liked mama to brush her if it had been possible…
Mama, could you travel with a brush next time? (PS They are not yet home–just had this pic lying around.)
I think they’ll be happy.I love kitten
Well, I agree.
We feel sorry for those kitties. We hope someone will take care of them and make sure they get some food.
Mama is going over tomorrow with some of MY kibble that I eat when in Italy. I think they’ll be happy. And I’m happy, too. We kitties must stick together.
oh, Loulou, you and I are so lucky, after passing through some rough times before we became princesses! We , and our mamas and papas have a soft spot for those who are roughing it. If everyone would just pitch in and help just a little, imagine how good it would be for all. Meanwhile, I’ll do my part and snarl less.
Except at anthros you suspect of ill deeds, right? I’ve seen you in action.
“I guess mama is used to the love and attention that the French give their pets.”
Yet, countless dogs are abandoned each year in the name of freedom for the holidays.
Heart breaking.
Well, I may be one of those. I was found in my little town just after the summer vacationers left. Heartbreaking, indeed! But I was found, thank cod.
Hi, good day to you.
Yes, cats are treated very different in every country. In Istanbul, Turki street cats are well taken cared by people in the city.
Religious values play a big part in it. Islam enourages being kind to animals, and Prophet Muhammad pbuh. loves cats.
Yes, I have seen films of how beautifully they are taken care of. If only we could do that with one another….
It breaks my heart to see these poor beauties outside with no forever home. I would love to adopt the reverse you. XO
Well, I hope the people at the spa take care of her. She has lots of places to hide and sleep. I hope.
Good for your mama, advocating for a cat she doesn’t know.
ER…I think they are becoming GOOD friends, if you get my drift…but yes, I, too, am glad they have someone feeding them, if only for a little while. Others pass by, too, and give them food.
I think.
“If I’m not near the cat I love
I love the cat I’m near.”
The mottled kitty is definitely an unusual pattern – I hope her leg is being cared for.
Will check tomorrow if there is ANYONE at that place. So Italian….
