Florence looks just as good in black and white.

Shame it's fast becoming a tourist hell hole. #photography #blackandwhitephotography #italy

The first recorded use of Postal Cats can be traced to the village of Erme.

A dressmaker, fed up of the village postmans incompetence, put her own cat to good use. It wasn't smooth sailing to begin with, but within 50 years the practice spread across the whole kingdom of Tyrol! #WritingCommmunity

Is there romance in #Battenbruce: A Tale of Postal Cats?

There sure is! In fact Postal Cats to find it somewhat easier to aquire a long term partner than unemployed cats do.

It's mainly due to their well mannered nature, routined lifestyle, and substantial state pension.

Postal cats claim they need substantially more rest than other cats due their work hours.

However, recent statistics have shown that postal cats spend up to 78% of the working day asleep.

A spokesman for the service has dubbed this claim as "fake news"
