Most cats are homebodies. Cezar, however, is an adventure cat. This Maine Coon from Sweden has currently more than 14 countries on his travel resumé and no intention of stopping anytime soon.
One of his latest adventures was a trip to El Salvador. “We met a fellow traveler from San Salvador when we did volunteering work on a farm on Crete, Greece, in 2016,” says Cezar's human, Carla. “She invited us to come and visit her, which we did at the beginning of 2017.”
“I rented a car for a week, so Cezar and I could explore the country, especially the national parks and the volcanoes,” Carla explains.
Cezar became quite popular in El Salvador, and everyone wanted to take a picture with him. “They were amazed because he is quite big compared to the local cats - 3,5 y.o. 100 cm long and about 7-8 kg.”
On the pictures above and below, you can see Cezar at a place called The Devil's Door (Puerta del Diablo), which is the highest point of San Salvador.
Cezar and Carla also loved hanging by the swimming pool, having lunch or enjoying the company of friends.
Cezar's human believes that any cat can become accustomed to adventure.
“Since we lived in an apartment in the city, he started out to be an indoor cat as a kitten, but I was used to outdoor cats, and I wanted him to feel free,” Carla explains. “So every weekend I put him in a backpack and went to my father's place in the countryside where he could run around as he pleased. Now and then, I put Cezar on a leash and walked him around the block to get a little bit of fresh air. I guess that's why he adapts so well when we travel. Usually, there aren't any problems. But maybe it was a little too hot for him in San Salvador. Maine Coons are “winter” cats. That didn’t suit him too well with 30-35 degrees (Celsius).”
Do you take your cat on adventures? Does he enjoy traveling in a backpack or on a leash?
If you can train them early on a leash, you could take a cat anywhere you'd take a dog. He's pretty. I've never seen an all white Maine Coon.
ReplyDeleteThank you Diane for your kind words and recommendations!
DeleteCezar is usually an outdoor cat, free to roam around as he wishes and to be honest, he isn't to keen being on a leash. He is only on a leash when the environment doesn't allow like for example, when we are travelling in cities.
Travelling with a cat is not for all cats, however it's not impossible and we want to inspire others that you CAN travel with your furry-four-legged-loved ones.
Cezar is gorgeous as are these photos. I am amazed that he has traveled to 14 countries. Although we occasionally put Rosie on a leash, she's never left our yard.
ReplyDeleteThat is lovely that you take Rosie out once in a while! Travelling with a cat as not for all cats, however it's not impossible:)

DeleteWhat a beautiful looking cat. He does get around and I am surprised that he gets through customs with such ease. Our cats are indoor but we do put them on a leash to explore our yard. The one does not like the outside at all and all hate travel
ReplyDeleteThank you Birgit! That's lovely that you try to take them out side once in a while and to be honest, travelling with a cat is defiantly not for everyone.
