The cats in Cinque Terre are a bit different from our Firenze friends. They are much thinner and more hesitant. Very few came to us when we called to them with one exception: the adorable white gattina (little cat) in the picture above. She followed us all around Corniglia for nearly 20 minutes and even let me hold her! Don't worry, she was a clean house cat wearing a little pink color (complete with pirates!). Perhaps I have fallen in love with the Italian cats partially because I miss my own Bella and Benedetto. Either way, the Italian gattino have certainly warmed this girls' heart.
