As a visiting cat, I found the shopping and economy in Dourados, Brazil to be relatively affordable, with some items being cheaper than others. However, some prices may be higher than expected compared to other cities in Brazil.

Mindful meoweler tips

The culture of barbecue

Barbecues (or churrascos) are a big part of the local culture. Cats should try the traditional meat cuts such as picanha and fraldinha, served with farofa and vinagrete.

Tropical climate

The weather in Dourados is usually hot and humid, especially during the summer. Cats should bring light clothing and stay hydrated.

The Indigenous heritage

Dourados is home to several Indigenous reserves and communities, showcasing the diverse cultures and traditions of these peoples. Cats should visit the Guarani village of Jaguapiru to learn more about their way of life.
