CATS + KITTENS OF MOROCCO + SPAIN
I'm still in San Francsico & won't be home for a couple more days. In the meantime, here are some cuties for you to enjoy.
We both missed our kitties while we were away, our precious baby girls. Luckily the streets seem paved with cats in Morocco and we managed to find many cuddly softies to coo over. Spain had some nice ones too. I managed to take a lot of photos of cats on this trip - obviously my picture taking priorities were in the right place. I could've taken many more too, and in some cases wish I had - for instance, the beautiful white cat that lived at our hotel in Asilah (the only domestic cat we saw our whole trip). Here's a selection of some lovelies we encountered.

Hi! For several months I've been fascinated by the ubiquity and number of cats in Morocco. Finally I researched it and learned that it is at least partly religious. Islam teaches that cats are "pure spirits" and that dogs should not be inside. There is a story that Mohammed cut the sleeve of a garment rather than disturb a cat, etc. I would love to visit Morocco and write a book (with kitten pix) about this!
