How cool! I need to visit one day, what fun it would be.
If it wasn’t Malaysia but some European country I might consider living there. I am such a cat person. Perhaps a job as a maid to some cats. lol
This is very interesting. I would love to see this place.
ok so let me get the puns out of the way
the people are very catty.
the food is a the Cats Meow.
Sorry those were the first things that came to mind. The joy of those whom cats choose to live with fits well for this city!
I am sure those who live there must be owning cats too
Such a piece to have us all smiling. Just love it!
That is one place I would not mind living. I sure am a cat person.
Fascinating! I wonder how it came to be so heavily populated by cats.
I took a look online for more information Andre and this must be how it all started. They just had to begin with cats to end up with cats.
The last theory is that the unusual name was chosen when residents discovered short-tailed cats living along the banks of the Sarawak River which flows through the city.
