Cats of Old San Juan
15 May 2012 | San Juan, PR
At the Discovery Center
We have toured El Morro, the fort that over looks the entrance to the most important harbor in the Caribbean... Held by the Spanish from the 1600's through 1898 when the US took the fort by Naval bombardment.
Cats were brought by Christopher Columbus to help keep the rats a bay. The cats kept the city rat-free until 1940, when someone removed them to "clean up the city." The soon found that the cats were critical... The rat population exploded... Until the cats were retrieved from their exile.
We were wandering around looking for some ice cream, when we saw a little door into the huge wall of the St Cristobal Fort, "Discovery Center." we entered to find a wonderful litte kids place with books and art supplies. This is where we read about the cats... And made a cat mask. Nice job US Park Service
