Atlantic City Boardwalk Cats

The hilarious “Atlantic City Warnings And Dangers” page on VirtualTourist — sample quote: “Another thing that really bothered us was the amount of peep shows and adult book stores in this town. This could be rather disturbing if you have small children.” — isn’t the only great thing about Atlantic City. There are also the boardwalk cats, groups of kitties that live on the beach under the boardwalk.

Cats got on the Atlantic City beach a long time ago, and the colony of feral cats is now fed by the AC Cat Action Team (CAT!). Thanks to them, the cats are among the most well-fed outdoor kitties you’ll ever see. It’s fun to walk along the boardwalk and check out the cute cats lounging around on the beach, chasing bugs through the sand dunes and even walking right up on the boardwalk (specially when there’s nobody around in winter).

Above is my favorite shot; I took it Sunday morning. So cute! There should totally be a sports team in AC named the Atlantic City Boardwalk Cats. This is so much better than “Surf” it’s not even funny.
