Cats of Athens (and Aegina)

Fun fact about Greece: there are cats everywhere. I wouldn’t say that’s why I decided to go to Athens, but it certainly was a factor. Disappointingly, most of the cats weren’t interested in being best friends. I only got scratched once.

Most often, the cats hung out in the older spaces of the city, lounging around the ruins of the Agora and plonking down on bits of Hadrian’s library which had been set aside for renovation.
