Special #Caturday Travel Report

York had an association with #cats for more than 2000 years. Brought to Britain by the Romans in the 1st Century AD, cats played a critical role in Eboracum (Roman York) which was at the heart of regional commerce. Merchants would have kept cats to protect their grain stores

The oldest cat statue of over 20 you can see in modern York dates from the 1920s (...) from The York Cat Trail guide

Another example of a cat statue around York city centre, here the cat is climbing on the rooftop
This one is the only white cat statue I have seen and it was difficult to spot on the top of the window. It's called the ghost cat, but I don't know the story behind it
You can spot the statue of a black cat climbing the wall on the right hand side just above the foliage and below the window
