We’re back from our Swedish jaunt, and here’s what we’ve learned (or assumed): Those Swedish cats in the country are not willing to get very close to you. Most of the cats we saw really kept their distance. The city or village cats seemed more trusting, which may be because they get more attention (read: scraps of fish/food).
Or maybe I don’t know what I’m talking about.
What I do know is that this guy stayed safe behind his fence and would not approach for a nice close up.
I actually got this little guy’s attention, but he was more intent on getting across the road. He made it across safe and sound if you’re curious.
When my human visited Japan, she was thoroughly ignored by the local cats. She came to the conclusion that it was because she did not speak Japanese. Maybe these cats only respond to Swedish-speaking humans?
