Warehouse cats

I forget where I saw these guys, there were three cats that all looked pretty much the same, hanging out at night in this empty store/storage space somewhere here in New York. Clearly I had to photo them.

9th Ave Pet Shop

These are near my work, I love walking by and seeing how the little kittens are. Sometimes they are FIGHTING.

And remember this guy?



I saw him last night in Times Square and he didn't have his cats anymore! He said the city had taken them away from him. "Do you have any big bills, so I can get some more cats?"

Flower shop: Please do not disturb the cats

I walked from work (42nd and 9th) to church (22nd and 9th) last night, passing on the way, among other things, a belly-dancer and this cat. I guess the flower/plant shop took in some strays, or otherwise has a soft spot for kitties. Everyone had gone home except the cat. You can see part of the note in the window -- "Please do not disturb the cats while they are sleeping by knocking on the glass. Cats can be adopted at..."

They must sleep in the window often.

Did I post this already? Here is another flower shop cat that I saw the other day near church:


I remember seeing this cat a while ago, she stuck in my head because she really reminds me of my old kitty, Kitty:


She died a few years ago now. Kitty! She was so fluffy, and had a white spot on her belly.

Outside the bakery

Seen on the way to the subway this morning. I think the cat lives in the bakery and was visiting with this banana-eating customer. Before inspecting the fruit the cat was sitting on the sidewalk, but the man patted the bench and the kitty jumped up.

Duarte: Toronto/Little Portugal

Here is Duarte. Duarte (a Portuguese name meaning "guard") lives in a hardware store in Little Portugal. Duarte is almost too cute for words. He spends his time helping the store owner with merchandising, working on store displays, accounting, and catching the odd mouse. When he grows up, he hopes to take over the store and continue the family's legacy.

Fittie Cent: Toronto/Dundas West

Here is Fittie Cent. We met in a by-the-pound second hand clothing store on Dundas West near Bloor. I didn't check to see if he was also for sale. I wonder how much he weighs?
