THE CAT BOAT

Amsterdam

Singel 38 - G 1015 AB, Amsterdam

Everyone knows cats hate water. Yet, by chance during a stroll along the canals, you might see a clowder of cats on a boat. A boat for cats? That is the project started by Henriette in 1966 after finding a family of cats at the foot of a tree. Since, her boat has become a shelter for all the city’s stray cats. Known as the Cat Lady, Henriette has even purchased a second boat to accommodate the growing family. This funny boat house is open for visiting. Even better, you can leave with a cat. Which might have sea legs.Singel 38 - G 1015 AB, Amsterdam
