Raining Cats and 3 Dogs

I have been trying to get a picture for this blog post, but I'm a little afraid that I may end up clawed in some way. :) One of the interesting things about Casablanca is that there are no stray dogs. I've been here 2 weeks now and have seen 3 dogs total. They have all been with their owners, who do not appear to be Moroccan.

I don't think I would notice much if there were just no stray animals. But there are scary looking strays on the street - stray street cats everywhere! They are often malnourished, without collars, and just lay on the sidewalks. I would have never thought that there would ever be a time when I would wish for stray dogs, but that time has certainly come. Something has to be done about these terrifying looking cats!
