Please join me in extending a meavolis Welcome to Jeff Bogel.
Speaker 3: Welcome, Welcome, Jeff, Thank you Arden. This is such a
pleasure to be here. I thank you for that amazing introduction. Yes,
I could take people to the famous stuff in these
amazing cities, but I let's skip all that and just
go straight for the cats.
Speaker 1: I love it. I love it and everybody. He's a
cat daddy. He's a daddy of two gals daughters, and
he kind of gets around a lot around the globe.
Have you ever figured out how many different countries you've
actually visited?
Speaker 3: Jank you, I'm one of those. I'm one of those
dorks that that keeps a running list on his phone.
I have a list of countries I've been to. I
have a list of countries my wife and I've been
to together, my kids have been to. I've I've got
many lists on my phone. Yes, I've been the fifty
seven countries on five continent six continents I'm missing.
Speaker 1: What's the missing continent?
Speaker 3: Australia, New Zealand.
Speaker 1: Oh, maybe you got to get there, correct, I know. So,
where is a place that is on your bucket list
that you would want to go next? What's what's the
place you haven't been to you're trying to pine for.
Speaker 3: I'm going to check that bucket list box off in January,
Hong Kong. Very excited to go to Hong Kong to
see the shopcats of Hong Kong and just to see
those high rises on either side of that bay. Photos
of that of that place just make my jaw drop.
So I'm very excited to see that.
Speaker 1: So I say that real men love cats, and you
need to add to that verification. What's your home situation
like outside of Philly.
Speaker 3: My wife and I have four cats. I'm a dad
of two human daughters and four feline daughters. Oh my god,
you are all girls. I'm a girl dad across the board.
I love girl cats. My soul cat who the book
is dedicated to, Tilly. She was one of those rare
orange tabby girls. Lost her six years ago. The book
there's two pictures of her in the front of the book.
Everything else's street cats. But there's two pictures of my
baby that are in there, so that she lives forever,
because as long as that book is being printed, my
Tilly is never truly gone.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I know that is Killy from Peru.
Speaker 3: Tilly, no Tilly Rescue from the SPCA. Okay, well, sixteen
years ago. Had her for ten years and then wow,
missed away. And I think about her every day. I
generally cry when I say her name. She meant the
world to me. It's been again six years in June.
Speaker 1: That's it doesn't matter in the heart. Your heart beats Tilly,
and I love that.
Speaker 3: And as I was traveling to make this book, I
felt not to get spiritual or kind of existential about this,
but orange cats kept, more than any other color or
type of cats kept coming to me, and I felt
I wanted to feel. I had to feel that that
was Tilly's sending me I'm gonna start crash. That was
Tilly sending me her friends to be with me.
Speaker 1: Well, I have two orange cats, Casey and Rusty, pet
safety cat. Casey who teaches her. Staid is a therapy cat,
a big long, lean pern machine. And then we have
a smaller orange cat named Rusty, whose full name is
Rusty the per Former because he was a former amazing
Cat circus cat. So if you don't watch out, Rusty
will leap on your shoulders and I'll let you walk
around the house with him straped around you.
Speaker 3: That's amazing.
Speaker 1: So let's dive in because I like the fact that
people need a little bit background on you, because you
have an eye for things, and you have the ability
to write. And have you ever figured out how many
books you've written on various topics, but your your genre
seems to be travel?
Speaker 3: Well? Yeah, So interestingly, I've only this is my third book. Technically,
I've written two guided journals, one for dads to help
help them tell their story through a series of one
hundred really reflectives.
Speaker 1: Well, isn't it called one hundred Questions for Dad?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was long in the Nose with the title
of that Much and then and then a similar one
for kids to talk about how much they love their dads.
This is my first prosaic because with the travel stories
that are in here, there's a real narrative, not an
arc to it, because every destination has its own standalone essay.
But I've written a more of a magazine and travel writer.
So I've written for just as we record this today,
I filed my first piece for BBC Travel, but I've
written for travel and leisure, photors, readers, Digest, Good House,
keep It, almost everyone. There's a few bucketless publications of
our Washington Post. There's a few bucket list publications I
haven't written for yet, but I've been doing it for
a while.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And what I like is the book Streetcats and
Where to Find Them. Hey, pet pals, We're going to
dive in more and find out where he's been and
what these streetcats are all about and how do you
interact with them. But we got to take a quick break,
and you all know the drill. We're gonna sit and
per We'll be right back.
Speaker 3: Time for a pause.
Speaker 2: Four very ones, actually sit and stay all behave.
Speaker 3: We'll be right back.

America's pet ed You, Janer Ardenmore.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Old Behave Show on Petlife Radio.
I'm your host, Arden Moore. We're speaking with author and photographer.
He is up to discuss a new book. It's called
Streetcats and Where to Find Them The man gets around
the globe. I love the concept of this because I've
been to several countries and I'm always looking for that
cat in different countries. And I actually went to the
ruins of the Parthenon in Athens, Greece on a tour.
I was there to teach pet first state and safety.
But I'm on a regular tour. You know how bolls are, Yeah,
And we're climbing up to see the ancient Parthenon ruins
no high, yeah and yeah. And then this black cat
comes out of nowhere and he comes to our group,
not to anybody else but me. I stick my little
finger out. It's called the kiddy Hello, and he rubs
his cheek against my index finger. And this lady who
had just met me said, you really are in the
pet business argue, and I said, yeah. I don't know
what's more exciting saying the Parthenon or being greeted by
a cat.
Speaker 3: It's the latter. It's not even it's not even a
question having a cat choose you, trust you, and vet
you like. I think one of the reasons I love cats,
and street cats specifically so much because they have a
skill that I wish I had. That they could just
tell if you're a kind Yeah, not that people aren't
kind if they don't come to them, but they can
just tell just by sniffing you.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 3: I like you, You're good, you're kind, You're going to take
care of me, and I trust you. And that is
an amazing gift.
Speaker 1: It is, it is.
Speaker 3: And I had gotten Matt in twenty countries on five
continents to make this book. I've had that experience over
and over and over again, and it was just a dream.
This book was a dream to make, largely because not
only because I got the put Tilly in it, but
because I got to have cats sleeping on my lap,
rubbing up against my legs, sniffing my fingers and just
being with me and trusting me for the six months
that it took for me to travel the world to
make this book.
Speaker 1: You know what a great gig. I mean, really, there's.
Speaker 3: Worse plays to make a living arden those worst.
Speaker 1: But the one thing I would say, and you have this,
you do speak cat. Because it doesn't matter if you're
in Peru, or you're in England or wherever. There is
a language that cats do with you, right that they
commit a kate. So can you give our loyal Oh
behave folks a couple of tips on how to safely
and politely approach a street cat.
Speaker 3: Absolutely so, I'm proud. So after the introduction, there is
a whole section in the book called Staying Safe with
Street Cats where I interview a woman of an amazing
woman in Athens, nay Marini, who does cat tours. She
takes care of the cats in this neighborhood called Ficio,
which is right next to where the Acropolis is, and
we talked about this exact topic. So what you wanted
the main things and what's I'm six five, so I'm
a very.
Speaker 1: Tall and oh i'm five to one. Oh wow, on
short of it here today, wow six' five.
Speaker 3: Wow so WHAT i need to do is to get
even more so because of WHO i. Am you get
down on their. Level i'm very. Imposing any human to a,
cat it's going to be very. Imposing you get, down
you crouch, down you talk in a lower, voice you
just be be a, stiller quieter version of your normal. Self,
okay and then, you like you, said you put a fing.
Out i'm a fan of the whole. HAND i put
my entire hand kind of up and down vertical so
that they can kind of sniff all my, fingers rub
up against the back of my hand or or hopefully
the palm that's the best when they get their cheek right,
out oh, yeah the palm of your, head and sometimes
just leave it. There and that's the first. Interaction so
you don't reach an arm. Out you do, That you
let them make the first, move consenting to anything that
comes after, that and then if they choose, you if
they rub it against, you usually you've got them at
that point because THEN i WHAT i immediately, do IF
i haven't already done it is sit, down criss cross
apple sauce on the, ground on a, curb on a
bench WHEREVER i, am and they will usually either lay
next to my, feet like on my, sneakers which my.
SNEAKERS i wore the same pair of shoes for the
entire time THAT i made this books of the.
Speaker 1: Smell and how much of a duration are we? Tacking six?
Speaker 3: Months oh? Wow, okay, yeah twenty countries on five continents and, wow,
wow those shoes must it's like The United nations of,
footwear like they of cat of feline. Footwear they must
have so many odors baked into, them and so cats
like often lay on them or jump up and curl
up on my. LAP a great story about. That i'm In, Lima,
peru my favorite destination in the, world which is the
book starts In, lima which my editor was, like shouldn't
we start that the estambul that's what everybody thinks. About i'm, like, no, no,
No it's all About lima for. Me SO i had
a cat an orange baby sleep curled, up sleeping on
my lap until in the rule number, one you don't
move until they, move.
Speaker 1: So you better practice kegles if you have to go
to the. Bathroom that's exactly.
Speaker 3: It, oh you, know there's a lot of squeezing and
holding it and legs falling asleep fearing. Amputation i'm, LIKE
i can't feel, anything but this cutie is sleeping And
i'm not. Moving BUT i actually HAD i was on a,
curb SO i was not on a. Bench so they
fell asleep really. Fast SO i pizzappealed under the cat
on my lap and moved it to the, grass still.
ASLEEP i managed to exchange a. Cat BEFORE i could
get my backpack and stand. Up the cat woke, up
got back on my, lap curled right back. Up i'm,
RIGHT i GUESS i live here. NOW i. GUESS i
guess part of me is still sitting on that curb
in Lib. A, Purt, well you've.
Speaker 1: Said in the book that In lima it's called The
Holy trinity of cat. Park talk to, me what is?
Speaker 3: That what was? That that's WHAT i call it because
there's three, parks so one of the. Things so when
you're In, istanbul when you're In. Greece so this is
the world's first travel guide for cat. Lovers but when
you're in certain places like those, two you just go.
Outside there's you're gonna find cats. Everywhere but in some
places Like, lima they're not just. Everywhere they're concentrated in three,
lush green parks that are all next to each other
In Mira flora's, neighborhood and so three of. THEM i
just called it The Holy trinity because it was the
most remarkable Place i've ever, been so much so that
a year later to the, DAY i went back and
took my wife BECAUSE i wanted her to experience, this
and we had another four beautiful fall in The Southern,
hemisphere days of cats on our. Lap and WHAT i
write in the book is that it was Like, oprah
like you get a, cat you get a, Cat you
get a. Cat because, morning, noon and night in these,
parks one out of every three people who was just
hanging out on a bench eating some street, food sitting
on a, curb had a cat on their. Lap it
wasn't just. Me there were. Cats they were just they're.
Loved we've seen them, fed given medicine in these parks
and they're all adoptable to their signs up all From.
Speaker 1: OH i love. THAT i, mean it's sure better than
the monkeys that are throwing. There you know what at
you flash. Park, hey, everybody we're speaking With Jeff. Bogo

man a real cool cat, man and his name Is Jeff.
Bogel he's an, author he's a photographer and he digs.
Cats and he was talking about one of his favorite
places is In. Peru but let's dive in a little.
Bit we want get people to be really ready to
get their pause on your Book Street cats and where
to find. Them so tell us a little bit about
how the book is. Structured we talked a little bit About,
peru but hit us with a couple other. Things because
you're doing cat, museums you're doing other.
Speaker 3: Stuff, yeah and so thank. You so the book starts
with an, introduction a little bit about me and my
journey BECAUSE i did not grow up with. Cats they
came to me later in, life which is why the
book's also dedicated to my ex, wife because she when
we were in a young late early, twenties she brought
a cat into my, life WHICH i won't spoil. It
BUT i throw a hissy fit When i'm a younger, man,
okay BECAUSE i thought they would ruin my life and
they didn't spoil. Over cats didn't ruin my.
Speaker 1: Life, Everyone, yes after they're making your.
Speaker 3: LIFE i made my maid do every, day and THEN
i go into staying, safe and then we get right into.
Destinations there's twenty destinations and starting With lima and going
Through taiwan And marrakesh And, cairo and in each its
structured that there are photos in each, location a, story
a full sensory story about what it's, like what it
was like to be. There so it's it's first. Person
it's me, there eating the local, food talking to, people
being with the, cats seeing some famous things and talking about.
That a little bit of the history where it's applicable
where you need to know about certain things like In rome,
specifically and then a little bit of travel intel so
that this book sits at the intersection of coffee table
book that if you just want to sit at home
travel the world from the comfort of your sofa with
your kiddies on your, lap you can do that because
you'll feel IF i did my job right when you
read the stories and look at the. Photos you'll feel
like you're there with. Me but it's also small enough
that it can throw it in your. Backpack and it's
an old. Cat it's an old fashioned travel. Guide it'll
tell you where to, stay where to, eat what airport
do you use to get close to the cats? Quickly
so you're The Rick steves of the. CAT i will
take that poll quote and uh and use that. Forever thank.
Speaker 1: You we talked a little bit About. Perue you mentioned
something About. Rome you said you gotta be a little.
CAREFUL i mean you're not given the new popa cat
right as a.
Speaker 3: Hello, no you would probably like.
Speaker 1: One oh used For chicago like.
Speaker 3: Me it's so exactly So, no In, rome it's a
specific there's specific. Area so again it's one of those
places where you're not just gonna step foot Into rome
and see cats. Everywhere you go to certain sections and
it's there's a cat sanctuary In rome THAT i focus
on a lot because it is like the gold standard
of cat Cat it's been there for decades and it takes.
Care it's Called Tory. Argentina it is on the site
the archaeological site Where Julius caesar was assassinated and cats
live there In rome around. That but after the, DESTINATIONS
i dive into cat cafe. CULTURE i traveled the. WORLD
i highlight some of my favorite cat cafes and some
of the ones that are doing interesting.
Speaker 1: Things oh that's a real diplomatic way of saying. Yok but,
seriously cat cafes and cats, THEMSELVES i think there are really.
Hot right, Now i'm, Popular but what's your take on
give us a couple of just the positions of cat
cafes that you've been.
Speaker 3: To so ca cafe culture In america is vastly different
from how it exists around the. World, so, okay we
have sort of draconian food and beverage.
Speaker 1: Laws who doesn't want a cat hair in your? Coffee come?
Speaker 3: EXACTLY i, mean we live with cats all around, us
and they climb all over our kitchen islands and tables
and like. Whatever but In america cat cafes it's. Separated
so there's a cat area smalled off from a cafe,
area and they're usually like a hefty entrance, fee which
can be. FAIR a lot of times that does go
to benefit the, cats but a lot of times you're
not sure if like an hour seems awfully expensive to
a cat out with a hangout with some cats and
around the world that's not like. That some of them,
ease but some of them are proper. Restaurants you just
hanging out have been real, moot real, food great.
Speaker 1: Food give me an, Example give me a.
Speaker 3: Place there's a place In, tokyo my favorite tach Cat.
I it's it's probably doing a disservice to call it
a cat. Cafe it is a restaurant with cats and
it is. Stunning it's in the book and the way it's.
Structured it is An italian man and A japanese woman
met In, australia fell in, love started a, restaurant started a,
restaurant and they love. Cats and the cats that live
there are all, adoptable no. Fees he you come, in you.
Get it's such a part of the fabric of the.
Community in The yanoka neighborhood In. Tokyo He, massimo the,
owner will meet with. You he will learn about your,
lifestyle what your life's. Like and after you come in
and have a few, meals if you if there's a
cat that you're bonding, with you can take that cat
home for like a little trial and if it works,
out there's no adoption fee that he is just placing
cats next nine in a very curated. Experience and the
food is off the charts. Amazing so it. Is and you're,
there you're you're, eating and there's a cat on your.
Lap you're, eating and there's a cat by your, feet
and you want to take a break in between courses
and get down on the ground and pet cats. Do
so it's you, know it's just like living at. Home
we all cook and we pet cats and then we
go right to. Eating there's no there's no delineation between
those two.
Speaker 1: Experiences, WELL i KNOW i might be, wrong BUT i
Thought japan was kind of the leader in cat cafe.
Culture is that?
Speaker 3: Right it's where it really. Exploded the origin started In Taipei, City,
taiwan Oh okay in nineteen ninety, eight and the original cat,
cafe the one that started it, all is still. There
and we went and we went to. It and in Tai,
taipei WHICH i fell in love. WITH i was never there,
before absolutely fell in love with. It there are at
least two dozen cafes in this one. City So japan
took it and made it world. Famous But taipei is
it's still. Thriving AND i developed in the book a
twenty four hour cafe. Circuit, okay what does that?
Speaker 1: Mean what does that?
Speaker 3: Mean it means you wake up in the, morning if
you want to do it in, order you wake up
in the, morning and there's a place to go and
get your morning coffee in a pastry and then you'd move.
On and they're all connected by great public transportation. Links
you move on to a little bit of a brunch
and then a late lunch, spot and then a dinner,
spot and then a late night cafe coffee in a
place Called Fufu, cafe which has almost every breed of
cat you can, imagine plus rescued street cats there and
that has a tiny entrance. Fee it's on the second
floor above a night, market and it is so chill
and relaxing while you're hanging out with licois And egyptian
cats and the grumpy. Cats there's a photo in the.
Book and oh and they feed them all together in
a line at eight o'clock every.
Speaker 1: Night, well you, know cats wear invisible, watches they DON'T i?
Speaker 3: Know, yeah are all this cat figgins who's? Ten the
minute it turns like four point. Fifty she is on
the kitchen island and she won't make a sound unless
we go anywhere. Near so we sort of avoid the
kitchen because if you even show, yourself she's, like, Mean
i'll just want to let you. Know it's getting really
close to. Five just want to let you. Know but
they feed everybody at, eight and there's two really fuzzy
grumpies that they actually put bibs, on and they line
up all the balls in a row and they all
come and they all know their exact bowl to come.
To it is one it's. Adorable two it's, hilarious absolutely.
Hilarious so you can spend an entire day going the
cat cafes eat'm, in eating your way through type i'm,
in i'm in hanging out with all different kinds of.
Speaker 1: Cats you also talk about some cat, museums and some
museums can be a big yaw and, some like the,
museums are pretty jazzed. Up so do you have a
cat museum that you really thought WAS i?
Speaker 3: DO i love The cat And cabinet In, amsterdam WHICH
i adore because it, talks it walks you. Through first of,
all it's a beautiful building like most buildings In. Amsterdam so,
yeah the last section of the BOOK i touch on, festivals,
museums some hotel, cats just a little bit of a
hodgepodge to end the book with the ways we celebrate
and have cats in our lives and can interact with.
Them but The cat And cabinet has actual cats that
live there, Too so it's you get cats and, advertisements,
cats statues and, sculptures, artworks photos of, cats with picassa
with famous people who own as in there all in
this beautiful old home right on a, canal all, right
everything's on a canal At. Amsterdam and then when you
go out in the, backyard there's giant billboards of cats
like in, films film, posts and there's two cats that
live out, there and you can there's, benches you can
just sit down and be with a. CAT i had
one on my lap of, course everywhere while looking at
all of this. Artwork so that is well worth the entrance,
fee is Not it is not a snooze at, all
and it's it's right in the heart Of. Amsterdam, well my.
Speaker 1: Favorite nonfiction author Is Ernest hemingway and That Hemingway house
And Key west and all that and he was a
writer THAT i. Loved i'm a former newspaper, reporter SO
