In Albarracín, there is a well-known cat colony, managed by the Proyecto Gato Albarracín association, which has been caring for these animals for over 15 years.

Approximately 200 cats live in the historic center and surrounding areas, blending seamlessly into the town's medieval landscape.
Location: You'll see them strolling along the cobbled streets, near the city walls, the Portal de Molina, and on the Guadalaviar river promenade. It's common to find them on staircases, windows, and balconies.
Characteristics: These cats are accustomed to the presence of tourists, very photogenic, and part of the town's charm. There is a wide variety of colors and breeds (Siamese, European Shorthair, tabby, etc.).
