Cats of the Holy Land

The guide cat at Caesarea Maritima. It kindly followed us around as any good host should!

A real beauty posing for her close-up outside the ancient crusader village at Akko.

Lounging on chairs under the shade of the table.

Watching Mark eat his tuna sandwich and hoping for a share!

Warming up on the tile outside the church containing Jacob's well in Nablus.  

The close up of his face is pretty fierce!

My beautiful friend at the river Jordan.

Ancient site at Megiddo, a city perched high above the valley. Long after humans abandoned it, a cat continues to keep watch.

Cat on a hot tin roof in Jerusalem.

The dirtiest cat that ever was... (Outside of St. Ann's church in Jerusalem.)

His much cleaner cousin :)

Former site of the Hospital of the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem. Now it hosts local cats and trash.
