Half-Asleep Chris hey chris i would like u to see this and let u know that ur videos are OUTSTANDING! I wish you alot more subscribers and views keep up these videos please!
To be fair, Rome is COVERED in ruins. There are ruins to spare, they're everywhere, so it's nice to see some also serve a function other than being a piece of history (which is almost important! but. you know. CATS.)
My wife and I specifically went to “the square” to visit the cats back in 2012. At that time there was talk about prohibiting the cats but I’m happy to see nothing became of it. Cats at ancient sites in Italy is pretty common place but one of our favorite places for hanging out with cats was at a small cafe up in the mountain top village of Delphi Greece. Love the Italian tribute to your kitties! Wonderful video again Chris.
Did you know that this kinda happened in some ancient ruins in turkey? there is not a shelter though... Turkey has a culture of everyone just taking care of the strays there so the wild cats are friendly! if you ever want to just see cats in a different country i would recommend Istanbul!(in turkey), the ancient ruins are called "the Basilica of Saint John" here is the google map. www.google.com/maps/place/Basilica+Of+Saint+John/@37.9528348,27.3666609,18.25z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x14b94d574d77f2ed:0x11056fac46c6f02c!8m2!3d37.9528691!4d27.3675619
They are in the middle of the city, and is literally full of cats (not amassed together, but just walking around). They also like hanging out at Trjans’s markets, as it is quite close.
I had to donate, this story was so lovely. ♥ to all my cat lovers all over the globe. (p.s. I love all animals, but cats take a bit more special place in my heart). ♥
@@HalfAsleepChris I discussed the issue of coronavirus with them. It turns out that they have done some very useful research on this: cleaning all the litter boxes with bleach and preventing new cats from sharing their litter boxes has cut the death rate from feline infectious peritonitis down dramatically. It's a pity that other cat sanctuaries won't follow suit.
Dinar AndFriends one of my cats died of FIP. But as I understand it, almost all the cats are infected with the corona virus. And they don’t know exactly why the virus mutates in some cats, so they die. The mutation is NOT contagious for other cats. And cleaning with bleach is not necessary. The virus doesn’t survive common soap. And bleach is very bad for the environment, really bad.
@@jannetteberends8730 >>as I understand it, almost all the cats are infected with the corona virus A lot of cats are, but most are not shedding it in their faeces. >>The mutation is NOT contagious for other cats. The reason why FIP cats typically don't transmit the mutated virus is because they are not shedding it by the time the disease develops, not because the mutated virus is not contagious. >>The virus doesn’t survive common soap. Do you have a link to research which backs this up? Personally, I wouldn't take the risk. >>And bleach is very bad for the environment, really bad. If you are referring to sodium hypochlorite then it's not particularly harmful because the hypochlorite ion degrades rapidly. It can form organic chloride compounds which are dangerous. However, the tiny amount used to clean out a cat litter when the cat has died or moved on is trivial. I would be (vastly) more concerned with the amount sprayed onto their cruelty-raised factory-farmed chickens.
I went here! Right outside of the sanctuary I found a cat under a car, and me on the locals went on a chase to find and capture the kitten, one of the locals captured it and went on to turn it in to the sanctuary. Rome is a fascinating place
This is my favorite place in Rome! I found it by accident the first time, wandering around the streets. Looked over the edge into the sanctuary and started noticing cats. Lots of cats. It was amazing! I visited them properly then and every time I go back to Rome (I go once every two years, and in my defense, it's my favorite city to visit), I make it a point to go. I end up spending a few hours there, almost every single time. I always donate. Always. They do AMAZING work. These cats are so well loved!
This is bringing back memories, I remember walking past this with my tour group, and everyone thought they were strays. It’s good to hear that they’re being looked after.
2:53 I know the poor boy is blind, but he has the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen, on human or animal!! I feel like I'm looking into two little galaxies!!!
I went to go find my cat that always gives the best hugs so I walked into the living room and remembered she past away not to long ago, I really miss her she was the best cat I could ever ask for she was beautiful and had the cutest voice she would give you hugs and lick you're face when you were sad, I miss her kisses and her beautiful eyes. Rest in peace pitter I will always love you

:0 I've been there! The cats are so sweet! This sanctuary is amazing, a truly great place. I was pretty young when I went there, but I got a book about a cat that lives in rome and it was my favorite book in childhood.
Oh how very very amazing, I haven't got a lot of money, I'm a cat artist, but I will definitely try and contribute something to this noble cause. Thank you for drawing it to my attention. 😻
Why Do Hundreds Of Cats Live in These Ancient Ruins? Me: *They are worshipping a cat god and ever since, they lived in these ruins to pass down the kittynati religion*
