The Torre Argentina Cat Sanctuary is located in Temple D of the Largo di Torre Argentina. The cat shelter was founded in 1993 and offers sterilization and adoption programs that house an estimated 350 cats. The shelter operates as a no-kill shelter under Law no. 281, enacted by the Italian Parliament in 1991. These laws introduced: (i) the cats’ rights to live free and safe, (ii) institutionalization of cat caretakers. The shelter remains active, despite archaeologists' protests to dismantle the shelter in favor of protecting the excavation.

Fun fact: the cat shelter is located in the ruins of where Julius Caesar was killed.

(i) the cats’ rights to live free and safe,

Cat rights!!!

Not only do those cats have the right to live free, they also have the right to live safe. In theory, if they are threatened by a foreign power, all of NATO would mobilize to protect those cats.
