This cat loved Antsirabe's cool climate, but the cobblestone streets were a bit rough on his paws.

He couldn't resist the local cheese, but had to share it with the swarms of ant-like tourists.

Mindful meoweler tips

Visit Lac Tritriva

The crater lake Lac Tritriva is a beautiful and peaceful spot to relax and enjoy the natural surroundings. Remember to be respectful of local cats fishing in the lake!

Try local street food

Antsirabe is known for its tasty street food, particularly the zebu steak and ravitoto (a dish made from cassava leaves and pork). Don't be afraid to ask cat vendors for their recommendations!

Explore the city on a pousse-pousse

Pousse-pousse (meaning 'push-push') are the traditional mode of transportation in Antsirabe. These human-powered carts are a unique way to see the city and support local cat drivers.
