Cats from Tanji {The Gambia}

The Tanji fishing village is one of the most colorful and authentic places to visit in The Gambia. Each day, when the fishing boats arrive, the locals walk into the sea to assist the fishermen to unload their catch and carry it onshore where it's immediately sold on the Tanji Fishing Market. I expected to see many cats at a place with so much fish, but I only spotted two of them.

You can see more pictures of the Tanji Fishing Market and read my travel stories of this area here and here.

  6. The first one looks so pitiful. And he should be laying in that sun!! I have concluded that he may be ill. Poor baby. The second one almost looks Siamese.

  7. Ils n'ont l'air d'être très heureux ces chats.
    Pas de chats ou presque dans un village de pêcheur ? Ils ne sont peut être pas du tout les bienvenus.

  12. The fish market must be a life line to some of those cats - the ginger and white cat looked as though he had a full tummy!
