It is very hard to get a good photo of Riyadh's ubiquitous feral garbage cats resting on their territorial bins -- they sense something is up and run away like this kitty did.

Not sure how in iPhone messed up this photo. In any event, in the central "frame" one can see a feral garbage cat resting on its bin -- its territory.

Interesting to me that there are so many feral cats and no stray dogs.

This hot dessert is sweet, is sprinkled with nuts and has a layer of delicious, chewy cheese underneath.

I have noticed such second-hand clothes recycling programs in Taiwan. Appears some Muslim organizations do the same. Wonder why this sort of effort is not seen in, for example, North America?

Since Riyadh has no mandatory recycling program, I am glad to see that the local mosque urges recycling.
