You know there’s that cat you see on the way to the bus stop – the one that rolls around on the foot­path and lets you tickle his belly, and you’ve nick­named him Cap­tain Choice­pants? Well, that’s a neigh­bour­hood cat.

Inspired by the Neigh­bour Cats zines, Petra Jane has cre­ated a pub­lic Google map of neigh­bour­hood cats around Wel­ling­ton and bey­ond.

So if there’s a furry rogue in your ‘hood, add it to the map!

UPDATE: The Neigh­bour­hood Cats map has been shut down. Could this be to foil poten­tial cat­nap­pers? Oh well – you’ll just have to cre­ate a map in your mind.
