Kuching means Cat in Malay language. Kuching is also the name of the capital city of Sarawak, one of the state in Malaysia. It was also famously referred as the Cat City. In fact, you will see many cat statues built around the city. If you first time visiting Kuching and a cat's lover, it will appreciate my recommendation to visit the cat museum. You will find many collections of cats in various forms and designs. Many are contributed by the royal families, locals or special collection from overseas... some are artifacts and priceless.
I have captured some cats photo, i hope you will like it.
The famous richest cat that you will see in most of the restaurant is the "Chew Choi Meow", which means that Cat that attracts prosperity. I think it's origin are from Japan.
Beside that, I like the Chinese version ... some made by clay, very unique and it is not easily found in market. They are priceless, I think.
You can also find more westernize ....
Tigers have been referred as big cat ..... you may find some tigers in the cat museum too.
And I had found a mirror on a wall, so I shouted at it, "Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the handsome afterall ? " Do you know what, my face appeared, if you don't believe, check out the following photo ... ha! ha! ha! .... LOL!
I have spent almost 2 hours plus there, as a photo enthusiast, there are so many cute kitties for photo shooting. I really love it but the time is not allowed for me to stay longer as my family members are waiting impatiently ... LOL, quick!! better run .....
and lastly, I took an exterior look of the museum before I went off ....
Btw, don't expect the whole place is cat museum, this building is Kuching North City Hall, the museum is just occupied at lower ground floor. |
The End.
Nice photos Yap !!
