Canadian Parliamentary Cats
The Parliamentary Cats are a collection of stray cats living in the precinct of Parliament Hill in Ottawa, Ontario. A small colony on the grounds, called the Cat Sanctuary, is set aside for them. The care of the cats and maintenance of the sanctuary is carried out by volunteers, and the effort is funded purely by donation.

“When cats run home and light is come,
And dew is cold upon the ground,
And the far-off stream is dumb,
And the whirring sail goes round,
And the whirring sail goes round;
Alone and warming his five wits,
The white owl in the belfry sits.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
