Benevolent Bodega Cats Pictured Taking Over Your Local Deli And Bringing Fierce Feline Energy To New York City

Hey, pals! Are there any NYC residents in the house? We grew up in Queens. And we are extremely familiar with the adorable phenomenon of bodega cats. First of all, for those who don't know a bodega is like a New York City convenience store that also has a deli where you can snag some tasty sandwiches and subs for a nice price. I'd always pass by a bodega on the way to school, walk in, grab a sandwich, give the local bodega cat a pet, and then continue on my way. Oh man, we are tugging on some nostalgic strings over here.

Anyway, over time, bodega cats have become more than just mousers. They add a friendly vibe to the store, and many customers enjoy their presence. Some cats even become local celebrities, attracting customers who come in just to say hello to the feline fixture. Cats are natural hunters, and their presence deters rodents from setting up shop in the store. So that's a win for the bodega owners. I can't imagine going back to Queens and frequenting a bodega without a bodega cat. They go hand in hand. Now, without further ado, check out these benevolent bodega cats pictured taking over your local delis and bringing fierce feline energy to the Big Apple!
