Prrrrrty Cats Around the World
Portuguese Cat
I managed to snap one cat pic while in the Alfama district of Lisbon earlier this year.Β
And Lisbon-gato basically just tolerated my presence. Barely.
Swiss Cats
While walking through the Lauterbrunnen Valley a couple of years ago, I came across a Swiss feline practicing a bit of sun worship. This cat really knew how to chill.
And last year I went for a short hike in Zermatt, when this copper-colored cutie decided it wanted to be my hiking buddy!
I was like, a-ight. You can join me.
Then the cat got bored and went its own way. But she was a fun companion for a while!
Turkish Cats
In Istanbul, Turkey, I saw so many cute cats! Like, gawd!Β
Have I ever told you how much I love Turkey? And particularly, Istanbul?
Well, it’s an amazing city! A crossroads of civilizations!Β But part of my Istanbul-infatuation might have something to do with its cats.
And when it comes to Turkish cats, I’ve got two recommendations for you! Firstly, go follow Sarper Duman on Instagram! (Basically, he’s a Turkish guy who makes sweet music with his rescue cats!)Β
Secondly, watchΒ Kedi, if you get the chance. Kedi means cat in Turkish, and it’s a documentary about Istanbul’s street cats! I highly recommend it!Β
American cats up next on page five! π»
Goodness! This is too adorable. I remember being deployed to Cyprus (Air Force) and seeing all the cats roaming the streets there. No one seemed to mind! I made a few friends near where we were stationed… it was nice to have the companionship π Thanks for the post – Toki
Thanks, Toki! I’ve never been to Cyprus! Would like to check it out sometime! And meet some of their kitties! π

I have to admit I’m not a cat person at all (but I love dogs), but I’m sure for anybody who’s into cat’s they would love this post – Actually there is a couple of people I know that love cats, I’m passing this post onto them, I know it will make them feel quite fuzzy haha. I do love your comment about giving yourself a talking to βStop paparazzi-stalking cats, ya weirdo!β – Not with cats but I would be the same with things I love haha

Haha, your comment brought a smile to my face! And maybe you’ll become a cat person one day! π But don’t worry, I’ll understand if you don’t. Thank you for sharing the post with your cat-loving friends! I hope it gives them warm and fuzzy feelings! π π
I’m sure ten countries on four continents still constitutes as “around the world” hahaa. I think the French cat is my favorite! Reminds me of the one my French host family had!! You should check out Tokyo’s cat cafes. I’m sure you’d love them!!

I am a cat person, always loved them. These photos are stunning by the way, that first photo with the blue walls is my favorite. I saved this to my StumbleUpon, hopefully many others can enjoy the photos as well.
This brings me so much joy. Great photos, too. I tweeted it π

Is the top pic of the cat taken in Chefchaouen? I’m not a cat lover but these do look adorable! I think the cats in Greece might freak me out with the number of stray cats. We spotted a few cats from out last trip at Ait Benhaddou eyeing up my lunch! ; )

I love cats! I’ll hopefully get to see more cats next time I go away!
I’m not a cat person at all but I loved this post! I had to look twice to see the French cat hiding in the flower pot. The English cats do look posh, and very relaxed too!
My only regret is we cannot hear their accent. Seriously cute pics here!
I’ve got a couple of friends who will love seeing your piccies. I remember how many stray cats there were in both Greece and Spain, I still can remember asking my mum if I could rescue them!!!
Thanks, Kate! Yeah, I wanted to rescue a few myself! The temptation was real! π
Oh I love Austrian Cat the best! But I do love the backdrop of symmetrical residential street of Vicarβs Close Cat ππ Such a cool idea to document these from your trips around the world!
What about the Istanbul, Moroccan, and California cats?! ππ»πΊ Thanks for stopping by, Hannah!
Stefanie- I love your photography!
Thank you so much, Dusanka! [Insert blushing smiley face here!] π π
There’s a Facebook group for the Cats of Reykjavik, Iceland! Tons of cats walk the streets there, but none are strays – they are just let out by their owners to greet the tourists. I managed to meet this little guy (https://tinyurl.com/icelandcat) begging to come inside during a snowstorm in February 2015. Two years later, I visited Iceland again and guess who I run into (https://imgur.com/a/swst7)? A little worse for the wear, looks to have had a recent surgery and a bit of a haircut, but still begging at the same red door.
Hi Colin! π Wow, that is so neat to hear! Now I’ve got to go to Iceland to check out the cats! And what are the chances you’d run into the same cat twice! What a cutie! (Although the haircut is a little unfortunate in the second pic! Lol)
I take cat pics every where I go! I wish I could post some of them here. Have great pics from Italy, Switzerland, Iceland, Scotland, just to name a few! Thank you for sharing!
I’m glad I’m not the only one obsessed with taking cat pics! Looks like I’m in good company! Thanks for stopping by, Brenda! π π
