The Adventures of Travel Cat: Panzano in Chianti, Italy

May 2, 2012 at 4:36 PM | by | Comments (0)

Kitty cats. They rule the internet and, whether we realize it or not, pretty much the world too. Ever noticed how cats sometimes stake out the coolest spots in a city? This new feature—Travel Cat—focuses on exactly that. Submit a photo to be featured by tweeting or Instagramming it to us (details below).

Travel Cat spotted in: La pieve di San Leolino, in the town of Panzano, in the Chianti region of Italy.

This week's Travel Cat comes from Ned Lundquist, Editor and Publisher of the “Your Very Next Step” travel and adventure newsletter (subscribe by sending a blank email here).

The story of this Travel Cat is a uniquely funny one; we'll let Ned tell it:

May 1 is “Labor Day,” and all the museums in Florence were closed, so my wife, Laura, and I took an excursion to the Chianti district, toured a bodega, a very old hilltop “pieve” church (La pieve di San Leolino) and had a dinner in a quaint and quiet village.

There was a cat who was crawling around the wooden cross in front of the pieve.

One woman said, “How did it get up there?”

“It ascended,” I told her.

How to submit your own Travel Cat photo to be featured:
· Have a pic of a cute cat in an interesting world location.
· Tweet it to us @Jaunted with a few words on where you took the snap.
· OR Instagram it to us by posting the pic and including us (@Jaunted) and #TravelCat in the description
· Or you can always just email us the old-fashioned way.

If your kitty makes the cut, we'll feature it on Travel Cat (every Wednesday!) and link to your Twitter/Instagram/Facebook—whatever social network you get down with the most.
