That would be fun to see a press conference with cats walking all around! Especially since they tend to be so good at walking in front of screens, in across keyboards and such 🤣

What a fun read Mike! Those cats are really lucky, and lively. Cats are so weird, so curious. I can just see them winding their way around his legs while he's talking. Also interesting to know more about the Moreno party, and what will come. Thanks!

A very touching story! Thank you, Mike. I especially appreciate learning, "they have ensured that all of the permanent residents get spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped by veterinarians from Mexico City’s Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México ".

Good article. Where does AMLO go from here? Any way he can get back in power legitimately?

I'm glad that our feral felines have continuity of care! We feed our feral neighborhood cats, too, though we don't get reimbursed by VAT. I very much enjoy these details and bits and pieces of sharing some humane aspects of life in Mexico

I do find the fact that these are cats to be strange. Feral felines are far less common than in the streets of, say Istanbul. Still, I like you, will be paying my IVA with a bit less sadness
