In Yogyakarta, Indonesia, there's a special bond between cats and the city's royal heritage. In the 18th century, Sultan Hamengku Buwono IX decreed that cats be allowed to roam freely around the palace grounds because they believed the felines brought good luck. To this day, you can still spot cats lounging in the palace courtyards or chasing after fluttering pigeons. Who knew that a cat-loving sultan would lead to such an endearing tradition?
