The Word of the Day on Artwiculate today was pariah which reminded me of this painting on a roadside hoarding in Sofia, Bulgaria. Photo taken in September 2009.
In fact, while there were dozens of apparently homeless dogs wandering around Sofia, they all seemed pretty cheerful and well-fed. They were also very trusting of people, which suggests that Bulgarians are in general a dog-loving folk. The situation for cats though was quite the reverse. No pictures of pariah cats though – they were too quick to disappear when I pointed a camera at them.
