So I have to let the cat out of the bag (pun intended!) and admit that for all of last week I was nowhere near a computer...and yet the blog kept updating due to a little bit of something I call "magic" that I learned at Hogwarts school of blogging. In actuality, I was on vacation in Greece for ten days while Katamari was in the care of her "au pair," Micki.
Still, the compulsion to take pictures of cats is not something you can take a vacation from. Especially in Greece, which is chock full of cats. So this post is going to be all pictures of cats I took in Greece. I'll return to the regularly scheduled program once I resume taking pictures of my own cat.
Here are some Cats in Naxos:
Here are some cats in Iraklia:
Here are some cats in Santorini:
Here are some cats in Folegandros:
Here are some cats in Nafplio:
And to cleanse the palate, here is a dog:
when you say greece is chock full of cats, I guess you aren't exaggerating. O_o
thank you for all these beautiful kitties. they can't touch kat in the cuteness department, but some of them are lovely nonetheless. ;)

Ooooo, must pack up and move to Cat Country, aka Greece. Especially like cat #13, looking out the window!

How about a hint on the auto-update spell you cast!! That's just cool!
By the way, my 3 elderly (15, 13, & 11) cats look at the pics of Katamari and I tell them that **they** used to be cute like that, too, but without the folded ears. As Ogden Nash said, "The problem with a kitten is that One day it becomes a cat!"
Cheerio!

nice to see the greeks take care of their strays - they all look happy and well-fed.
but nowhere near as cute as katamari.

Thanks for sharing the kitties (and lone doggie) from Greece.

Great pics! What a lovely backdrop! Do you think these are indoor/outdoor kitties or strays? Both? Thanks for posting these lovely pics.

Santorini in particular is famous for its cats X3 There are calendars every year of the cats wandering Greece. Eeks, I wouldn't make it 10 feet, I'd be stuck petting bellies for days D:

I give it a year before Katamari is posting her own pictures - while you guys bring her luxurious cat beds for her consideration.
OH MY, even cats that aren't yours are cute! Are you a reincarnated crazy cat lady from the 1800s?
