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.

Bodies of shadow and blind eyes like pearls,
Came up out of the hole, and red-eared hounds
With long white bodies came out of the air
Suddenly, and ran at them and harried them.”
