Kotor Old Town Cats Museum and Cats

A cat asleep on a wall in Kotor Old Town

You won’t find any skinny, under-nourished cats in Kotor. They’re all well-fed and spend their days either asleep in the sun and trying to get food from tourists.

The Cats Museum

This is a small, but interesting museum dedicated to everything about cats. It costs 1 EUR to enter. Each exhibit has a number next to it and you get a laminated card with details of each one.

The exhibits are arranged in two rooms. There is also a small shop area at the entrance that sells cat postcards, fridge magnets, etc.

There follows a small selection of the exhibits.

Cats Around Town

There follows a very small sample of the cats we saw around the town. There are literally hundreds of cats. You will love it here if you’re a cat lover.

In one corner of the town, the cats have small homes. The cats here are regularly fed. There were around 30 cats in this area when we were there.

This cat has a beautiful home.

24-hour Cafés in Bangkok

There a few cafés in Bangkok that are open 24/7. As I find more of them, I’ll add them to this page. If you fancy a coffee after a night’s clubbing, want to stay up to study for an exam, or just can’t sleep, check out

I Love Bangkok Even Though I Hated It on My First Visit

Bangkok is the type of city that most people seem to either love or hate. I fall into both camps. When I first visited in 1999, I vowed never, ever to come back again. Jump forward almost 25 years and it’s now my favorite place in the world. My

Surin Majestic Hotel – The Best Hotel Aircon Ever

That’s title is no exaggeration. I’ve traveled extensively over the years, and this is the best aircon I’ve ever had. When the temperature hits 35C, this is exactly what you need. Surin Majestic Hotel is very centrally located and only a 2-3 minute walk from the

How to Get From Bangkok to Surin by Train

It’s a little more complicated traveling by train from Bangkok these days as the old Hua Lamphong has mostly closed down. Instead, trains run from the brand new Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal, which is also known as Bang Sue Central Station. It’s a massive train station that’
