The cats of the city

Rome is famous for its cats. But we can see in many other cities around the world these semi-domesticated small predators, deified in antiquity, primarily because of their fight against rodents. They still perform this function quite successfully to this day, although their life in the city is not so easy. There are organizations in Bulgaria and many citizens who help these fluffy urban dwellers. Most people love them and there is even graffiti with their image.

We present a small photo portrait of the Bulgarian city cats.
