Cats of Malta

Ever since I moved to Malta last year, I have been photographing a lot of cats. Malta is full of cats. Really.  I do see dogs here, but not nearly as many as the amount of cats that inhabit old buildings, parks, and spaces beneath cars.  Many of the stray cats are taken care of by neighbours who regularly feed them, and build them cat houses. I wanted to put some of my favorite photos I've taken in the past year.

Lucy found a home!

Lucy found a good home today. I will miss her sweet face, but I'm very happy for her. She is so beautiful that I took way too many photos of her while she was here.  She's such a model!!

Snuggle Time

Are there any waves today?

Here are the dogs, on the patio, checking to see if there are any waves for surfing today!

Sweet girl!

I still have not found a home for the lovely dog I found the other day.  She's enjoying her time here with us in the home and behaving super well!  She has been accompanying me to the beach in the mornings while I do surf photography.  She's been loving the walks on the beach, and the new toys I bought her.  Yesterday she learned the command "down" and "stay". She's really quite smart and soooo sweet.

Lucy needs a home!

I was out for a run yesterday and came across this beautiful little dog wandering in the middle of traffic around fields.  She looked lost and hungry and scared. I couldn't leave her be so I picked her up in my arms and carried her home. I gave her a flea bath, and some food, and lots of snuggles.  She's very well behaved for  a "zaguate".  I'm looking for a good home for her. She has an exceptional temperament and is very well behaved and obedient. If you live in Costa Rica and are looking for a good dog, please leave a comment with your email.  Thanks!

Happy Beach Dog!

I captured some photos of this cute little dog yesterday running around on the beach and enjoying the sunset and water!

Beach Dogs

My buddy Bichon (before & after grooming)!

There's no better way for a dog to lose 10lbs than to get a  good haircut! 

Did you say..."walk"?

Cats Of Malta

I met the friendliest bunch of cats during my trip to Malta.  I was surprised at how many ferrel cats they have over there. People regularly feed them, so no one's starving!  Here are some shots of some of the cats I met during my stay.

Doo Doo The Dog

His name is Doo Doo, as in doggy doo doo. That's what his fisherman friend told me, which in Maltese apparently means minnows? On my recent travels to Malta, I noticed that there weren't that many dogs around, but about a bazillion cats.  Doo Doo was one of the few dogs  I got to take a snapshot of.  He can be found every day at the same spot in St Juliens Bay, alongside the fisherman making fishing nets by hand.  Doo Doo is really quite friendly.
