The Cats of the Great Wall

As many of you know I kinda have a thing for cats. I have a sixth sense for them, if there is a cat around I will find it. If there is a cat crying I will find it. Such is the way I am and I am sure that someday I will be a crazy old cat man and if I will the lottery I will bend a giant no-kill cat shelter. So it comes as no surprise that when I discovered cats at the Great Wall of China I started taking pictures of them instead of the Great Wall.

We counted ten of these cats in all and they were obviously feral and obviously living at the Great Wall. They came up to people and begged for food as much as a cat does. They would get close to people and meow at them but they would dart away as soon as someone tried to pet them. People were happy to oblige them. The coolest thing about them was that most of them had the most unusual shade of golden eyes that I have ever seen. Very interesting.
