Why Cats in the UK? Should this see also be about similar colonies of cats in Museums rather than eg Putin's pets etc? Billlion (talk) 08:28, 17 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

The cats remained in St. Petersburg except during World War II, when the existing cat population was killed
How did they die? Cats do not make for good food sources unless they are very fat, in which case they are said to resemble rabbit meat. Were they used as food? Viriditas (talk) 08:45, 4 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
