Tag! Graffiti Cats in Paris
NYLON reader Yoan Chen writes in with this news from France:
“Dear Faran,
I was in Paris a few days ago, and I kept spotting these graffiti drawings of cats all around Paris– along the Seine, by Bon Marche in the South of Paris etc.
They’re not exceptionally good technically, but they put a smile on my face and I hope they put a smile on yours too!
One might also ask how the artist managed to find such hard-to-reach yet visible spots to display his works!
One more thing:
I believe the graffiti artist seems to be going under the alias ‘M.Chat’ or Monsieur Chat.
a bientot,
Yoan xx”
Mon Dieu!
Who knew little kitties were being sprayed all over the City of Lights?!

I have noticed these cats when I studied in Paris in ’05 as well but never kept up with them. They remind me of the cat bus in “My Neighbor Totoro”!

Hi everyone
Another newbie here. I’ve joined on the recommendation of a friend on here. Looks like there are lots of interesting threads.
I love gardening and messing about with the camera so you should see me joining in with those for starters.
Take care, John from Online Payday Today!
