NYTIMES: Cat Lovers Appreciate Soul Mate in Vatican

"Benedict’s kindness toward the strays of Rome is already the stuff of Vatican legend. His house in Germany, its garden guarded by a cat statue, was filled with cats when Benedict lived there full time before he was posted to the Vatican in 1982. "

I wasn't aware of this. But in light of my recent posts about Leo I thought this would be fun to share. Click on the link given and you can read the full article in the New York Times.

Update on Leo: He seems to be doing well and will be home soon. I will post the full story soon.
