The cats of Ephesus

Continuing my blog about Ephesus....

                                            There were so many cats in Ephesus!

No one really knows why they are here.  Cleopatra loved cats and is said to have gifted cats to Caesar Augustus.  One writer says perhaps she brought some with her when she visited Ephesus.

  HISS!  I don't think that cat liked the dog at all!

The workers there feed them!

A shopkeeper showed us something in this box.
