“In Chiang Mai cats are adored in loving homes all over the city... People even walk their cats at the local lake where they enjoy social integration. There are also a large number of strays who's daily battle to survive can be daunting. I met this stray in a car park briefly, his scars told stories of heroic feats, furnishing his face with a rugged edge. However, once I gained his trust he became less taciturn and we formed a deep yet momentary companionship. I am forever in admiration of these extraordinary, independent and mystical animals... The Egyptians were right to deify them,” he added. He concluded his post by urging people to donate to various cat organisations.
Take a look at the mesmerising pebble portrait of the cat:
