Where did the "palace cat" in the Forbidden City come from?
After the Forbidden City is closed every day, whenever night falls, it is the "duty" time for a group of mysterious "employees". They stand on tiptoe and patrol the Forbidden City.
They are stray cats living in the Forbidden City, and they are also the "cat security guards" of the Forbidden City. At present, there are hundreds of "cat guards" in the Forbidden City. With them, there are no more mice in the Forbidden City. In order to control the number of cats, the Forbidden City also sterilized stray cats.
So where did these cats come from? According to Dan Jixiang, director of the Palace Museum, all the concubines in the palace at that time liked to keep palace cats. At present, some stray cats in the Forbidden City may be descendants of these palace cats, some run in by themselves, and some are brought in by tourists outside.
