Strong and independent, they follow their own wills and are generally labeled as selfish. Nothing could be further from the truth, as they are felines that simply follow their nature. In fact, several scientific studies agree that cats are a true reflection of their owners' personalities.

And indeed... we love cats. From the chubby to the sleek, those that are just a ball of fur to those that are all skin. But also the affectionate, the grumpy, the proud, and all those who know when we need a little purring to lift our spirits.

As the Egyptians said, they revered them as true gods because they were associated mainly with protection, belonging to the feline family. They directly likened them to the lion, who was the sun god for the Egyptians, Ra.

The Map of the World Where You Can Discover the Cats That Live in Your Street

The truth is that our passion for cats goes far beyond our own, because every time we see a friend's or family member's cat, we cannot help but die, literally, of love. And we have found the ultimate map to discover all the cats living on your street... in a sort of Pokédex that is a true fantasy.

This website, an absolute fantasy, is called 'I Know Where Your Cat Lives' and stores over 1,100,000 photos of cats from all over the world. From the cats that live on your street... to the cats that live in the most remote village in China, Japan, or South Africa.

However... we warn you that this map is completely addictive, because it is practically impossible not to spend hours and hours looking at the cats that millions of people have shared, where we can see a glimpse of what life is like for these beautiful creatures, so different around the world.

In the United States, for example, we can see photos of more than 15,000 cats spread across our geography. As for images, there's everything from cats in funny poses to others looking grumpy, and even some dressed up for the occasion in elegant outfits or costumes.

And as we already mentioned... once you enter this map it is impossible to leave.
