This Artist Charmingly Illustrates the Beloved Bodega Cats of Brooklyn

Wander into any Brooklyn deli or convenient store, and you may just make a new furry friend. Known affectionately as "bodega cats," many felines live in the small shops, and can often be found lounging on groceries or scuttling across the shelves. Most Brooklyn residents are fond of the shop cats, and some—like illustrator Sunny Eckerle—even celebrate them.
