How many of you have been to Rome? If so, you’ve seen cats by the hundreds and thousands. Morocco shares this trait with Rome. Cats are everywhere. Dogs, hardly at all. Cats are in every shop, hotel, restaurant, alley, street. They are on the hunt for food, sleeping in the sun, meowing for attention. They are mostly thin and desperate in appearance. There are too many to feel you could do anything to make a difference. It is a notable change from the prevalence of dogs and barking to which we have become accustomed in Mexico. Bob is reminded of a time in Rome with Ryan’s mother decades ago when she was overwhelmed by the sadness of the number and condition of the cats. It does not appear there is any effort focused on neutering or spaying animals in this country.
