121. Stray Animal: Think of the life of a stray cat or dog and write about that.
“The cats live in Kotor for centuries and protect the town from the rats, mice and snakes. Nowadays the cats have become a kind of symbol both of good luck and prosperity, and of the old town which survived despite the wars, sieges and earthquakes.” – Cats of Kotor
Cats litter the streets of Kotor, sitting in doorways, on steps, and on restaurant chairs. They were a constant companion around every corner and were all colors in the cat rainbow. Although some appeared to be pets, there were so many felines that I would venture a guess that many were strays. If I were a stray cat, Kotor is where I would want to live since the weather is pretty good, I would have plenty of companions, throngs of visitors petting me every day, dropped goodies, and free rein inside the walled old town. I would blink sleepily at everyone who snapped a cute photo of me; life would be good.
