It is believed that Maltese cats are only real indigenous inhabitants of Malta (first of all, cats themselves definitely assured in that). You can find cats in Malta are everywhere: they take a sunbathes on the car's hoods, meditate on the cactuses named "prickly pears", or "Bajtra" in Maltese, make a company to fishermen, adorn the shelves and almost all heritages of Malta.
In Malta, there are a few feline settlements where shaggy natives can hide from the rain and where locals regularly bring them food and drink.
One of the largest cat's villages situated on the campus of the University of Malta; when one enters the territory he will see "Dogs are not permitted", what is surely have been written by the cat's local administration.
Nice cat's village one can find not far from the famous Portomaso complex (Maltese cats belong to the noble family, as you can already guess). To find it you can pass along the Spinola Bay (by the monument to the fisherman with... a cat, of course), and rise up from the sea. Carmen, the local resident, has built this Cat House about twenty years ago, and from this time it grew up not less than its neighbour, Portomaso. Sliema local branch of this estate one can find on the shady promenade above Exiles Bay.
The word "cat" translated to Maltese as "qatus" for male and "qatusa" for female (to pronounce this word properly you should pretend that you swallow first and then simply say [atus]).
