There is a special species of cats that lives tucked away in tiny shops in New York City known as Bodega Cats. They roam the aisles, protecting the Twinkies and stale chips, keeping a watchful eye on the customers and doing their part to make sure the shop is free from varmits. If you’re lucky enough to spot one of these fine creatures in real life, show them a little love.

Respect, Bodega Cats. Respect.
