Maybe thats his plan... He brought his feline fancy to Rome too. Cardinal, Italian Tarcisio Bertone, who had worked as Ratzinger's top aide, described how the new pope always paid attention to the street cats around the Vatican and how they sometimes followed him as he walked to his office.
Bertone joked: "One time the Swiss Guards had to intervene: `Look, your eminence, the cats are laying siege to the Holy See.'"

I was referring to the picture, which does not appear to be a cemetery.

Cats have a distinguished history in security operations. With luck, Benedict XVII will give them the contract for the catacombs under St. Peters.
