Cyprus cats 'bored' during lockdown | AFP

Accustomed to living on the remains of restaurants and roadside stalls, around fifty stray cats are seen yawning and stretching under the rays of the spring sun of the island of Cyprus, in the almost deserted streets due to the measures taken in mid-March to stem the Covid-19 epidemic.

I thought flirting with tourists was their favourite past time? Especially when there might be food? I need to go there again for holiday I miss them!

Can you imagine the suffer from these cats. All the people say " oh they beautyful ". Yes, they are. But they need food, they need a vet and neuter. Lovely people in the Island try to help them. I try it to. The Cypriots poisen them. They don't want to spend any money. They poisend my cat. I found a place for him in Germany. The next day I found him dead. That's the reality on that beautyful island with that lovely cats.

I'm guessing most of the cats will starve to death due to lack of tourism as they always get fed by us..
