Mindful meoweler tips

Oslo's Vigeland Park is a must-see for all cats visiting Norway

The park features over 200 bronze, granite and cast iron sculptures by Gustav Vigeland, including the famous 'Angry Boy' and 'The Wheel of Life'.

Be prepared for high cat food prices in Oslo

Norway is one of the most expensive countries in the world, and this applies to feline cuisine as well. Make sure to bring enough treats from home.

Don't be afraid of the cats on board the Oslo tram

The city's tram system is home to several cat colonies, who serve as unofficial 'mousers' and keep the trams rat-free. They're used to commuters and won't mind sharing the ride with you.

Oslo's Christmas markets are a feline paradise

Every December, the streets of the Norwegian capital are transformed into a winter wonderland, with several markets selling Christmas treats, crafts and decorations. Cats are welcome as long as they behave!

Norwegian cats are known for their love of fish

It's no surprise that in a country surrounded by water, fish is a staple of feline diets. Make sure to try some Norwegian salmon or cod yourself while in Oslo.
