So far I have visited Jaco, Manuel Antonio, Monteverde, Canas, Playas del Coco, Playa Hermosa, Puntarenas, and Puenta Leona. I have not seen any cats here only dogs. I was intrigued by the fact that I have not seen one cat so I asked several locals to try to get a reason why. "Estan solo perro's aqui, no gato's. Por que?" I questioned this one Tico in Manuel Antonio. I received elaborate explanations with no real answers. The Tico's here should be in politics with the answers they give! Tico's replied they prefer dogs. Some say cats are evil and no one likes to walk in front of a black cat. One Tico stated he had two cats at his house but who knows if that is true.
So I still haven't seen a cat. I still couldn't figure out why even the gringo's had dogs and not bring over their cats from America. Surely some of the gringo's had cats back home. Having a dog couldn't be for safety because Costa Rica is one of the safest countries on the planet. I am going to solve this mystery even it takes me nine lifetimes! Stay tuned.
