The Cat Museum

After the Cultural Village, we checked out of our resort hotel and drove back into Kuching were we went to “The Cat Museum”. The city’s name Kuching comes from the Malaysian word for cat which is “Kucing” which is why Kuching is known as “The Cat City”. Kuching has always had many Cats, and Cats are believed to be a symbol of prosperity, there is a much longer story about the name, but that is pretty much all you need to know. The museum was very interesting, it covers anything and everything to do with cats. From a famous king who had his life saved by a cat that stopped him from entering a room, where an assassin was hiding, to how cats are house pets today.
