Clervaux is my favorite destination in Luxembourg. Nestled in a narrow valley surrounded by hills of firs and oaks, Clervaux only consists of a handful of streets. Less than 2,000 people live here. It's mainly restaurants, hotels, shops, and an impressive whitewashed castle.
However, even though Clervaux is minuscule, it has a celebrity: a cat.
“His name is Schnurry because he snores all the time,” his owner Linda says. “He loves to stroll through the center and walk into the shops and hotels. His favorite is the druggist, but he also loves hotels, restaurants, and shops. He's like a dog, really. Because he craves the attention of tourists.”
When I saw Schnurry for the first time, I was sitting in the brasserie of Hotel Koener, and Schnurry was sniffing the tree in the middle of the Place Princesse Maria Thérésa. When he noticed me, he hopped in my direction like a rabbit. His human Linda then picked him up so I could take better pictures.
Later that day, I found Schnurry again in front of Hotel International and walking into the Rhino Steak House.
Clervaux is so small that it's impossible not to notice this little guy. And if you don't, just call his name and he'll be greeting you in no time.

ReplyDeleteI just noticed your new posts don't update my side bar - very strange.
We always make animal friends when we travel. They make the places we stay feel like home.

ReplyDeleteSchnurry is gorgeous. Reminded me of a cat we use to have named Nuisance who had the same coloring and blue eyes. I miss him.
