I Walked The Streets Of Limassol, Cyprus To Take Pictures Of Stray Cats There (16 New Pics)
You liked my previous posts (here, here and here) with lonely and stray cats and I have prepared a number of new photos for you.
Cats in Limassol are something special, they are everywhere and they are all different and each has its own life and its own corner in this world. Happy viewing. Thanks to everyone who writes comments and upvotes my pictures - it motivates me to take more of them.

I am a street photographer currently based in the vibrant city of Shenzhen, China. With my trusty Fujifilm X-Pro3 camera, I have dedicated my skills to capturing candid moments that unfold on the bustling streets.
How sad, if all the cats were spayed/neutered there wouldn´t be any homeless kittens...
My passion for travel has taken me to many unique destinations, including China, Turkey and Cyprus, where I have been able to capture incredible perspectives of daily Life. With my camera in hand, I have been able to capture the essence of each location through my street photography.
Street photography is not just a hobby for me, it is a way of life that allows me to tell stories through the lens of my camera. It brings me great joy to share my photos with others, evoking emotions and offering a glimpse into the fascinating world around us.
Generally when community cats in the US and Britain are trapped, neutered & released (TNR, TN&R) they’re ear-tipped. I’m not sure if it’s the same ear everywhere, the same in a particular area or just a vet’s choice. An advantage of having the same ear tipping, by convention, would be that it allows for smaller tipping. I’ve seen photos of heavily tipped cats which I’d be concerned about for infections but also communication. It’s been a concern regarding dogs with clipped ears and docked tails too
Luckily there are people in Limassol who go around and give the cats food. It looks like many of the cats are cared for, even though they don't have a home.
Are the people of Cyprus as caring and loving of animals, including street animals, as the Turks are? I hope so.
I agree I cry my self to sleep knowing a stray car or dog or any animal is out there all alone thirsty and hungry😞😩 BUT I LOVE YOU CATS I WILL ALWAYS SUPPORT U❤❤❤
They need a spay/neuter program YESTERDAY. CABS (Committee Against Bird Slaughter) just finished up the hunting season (humans on bird) and they are relentless wrt not even bothering to care about migrating species: using lures, lime sticks, caged decoys, and shooting and letting storks just die of injuries. so considering their lack of concern for birds, cats are probably shifted to the bottom of the list. someone needs to catch/neuter/release. A responsible person who wants to start a cultural change.
We were just in Naoussa, Paros and, like in most cities and villages, there were cats everywhere. They seemed healthier than most and, according to shopkeepers, they also tend to be fed and generally cared for. There is also a group that takes donations to gather them up and get them neutered (and vaccinated I believe). Not sure how effective it is but they are trying. I was also told that it is somewhat frowned upon in some Greek circles to neuter pets... not sure how accurate that is however.
Most pictured cats have tipped ears showing they have been neutered.
