Call to the streets in this term means announcements and updates. Like if the site will be getting a clean up or if there is something important like a staff member having to quit then it will be posted here. Activity checks sometimes might be posted here besides the Along Side All board, but that is up to the admin on where to put it. This is the call to the streets, a call of announcements and updates to those Venice cats out there.

Walk among the streets of Venice Italy, where all cats roam. Ban or no ban you walk among the streets, pawstep by pawstep. You hear the whispering wind, or the pelting rain. This is where all accepted cat bios will be moved. Make sure you don't keep bothering a staff member to move your cats bio here or else it won't ever be moved here. After this you may walk among the streets of Venice, Italy!

Faded in the blackest of nights lives the cats of alley ways. They live hidden in the alley ways of Venice Italy, watching man walk by day and night. Sheltered behind dumpsters and all around things stuffed in the alley ways is the home for the Sbiadito cats which means, faded in Italian. If you live with the Sbiadito cat band then you live here, in the alley ways. You can climb up on dumpsters and hop on to the small roof's of some of the buildings and enjoy watching man walk across the grounds which were once walked by Romans.

The clock shows the hours in Roman numerals, the phases of the moon and the Zodiac. It also gives indications to sailors about the tides and which months are more favorable for sailing. The Serenissima gave a large reward to the Ranieri brothers who constructed the clock tower, but legend has it that later their eyes were removed in order to keep them from repeating such a wonder. The cats that live in the alley ways can come here and hunt since this is also a great hunting spot like the Bell Tower which is many pawsteps away.

The original Campanile, which was visited by Galileo in the 17th century, collapsed during repair work in 1902 and the present structure was rebuilt in 1912. You can climb to the top for a nice view of the Piazza, St. Mark's and the Doge's Palace. The Campanile is the tallest structure in Venice. You can come here and enjoy the sites. Hunting pigeons and other birds here is the greatest. It is also a place to kind of avoid in the early morning and a bit in the late afternoon.

No New Posts ;;the old dock

As you move down the canal and past some alley ways you come down to an old dock. It is now hidden and is covered by the buildings shadows. Many haven't seen the old dock before. The old dock was a place to aboard a boat or ship to go down the canal and into the ocean. But now the old dock is home to the Ricerca cat band. They live among the old boats that sit there today still. So the old dock is the home of the Ricerca cats. Mice run around these areas. The Ricerca cats live on the old boats and hide under the old coverers when it rained, they live also on the land and hide among the old things that still sit next to the dock. There are four boats planted and tied next to the old, rusty, creaky dock.

El paron de casa means The Bell Tower. On July 14, 1902 it collapsed, luckily without causing any casualties, not even a pigeon was hurt. Inside the bell tower there are 5 large cast iron bells. Each bell has a name and a purpose; Marangona rang mornings and evenings at the beginning and end of the work day, Maleficio rang for capital executions, Nona rang at the 9th hour, Trottiera called magistrates to meetings in the Palazzo Ducale, and the bell of Pregadi called senators to the Palace. Cats can come here and sit on the stairs to get into the bell tower. It is a great place for hunting.

No New Posts ;;doge's palace

The Doges (dukes) ruled Venice and this building, serving as both the Doge's Palace and the seat of government, was Venice's center of power until the Venetian Republic ended in the 18th century. A tour of the building reveals the historic grandeur that accrued to Venice in its role as a major sea power and mercantile center of the Mediterranean.
The Palace was started in the tenth century, later rebuilt and finalized in the fourteenth century. It was damaged by fire in the 16th century when many historically important items were destroyed. It is abandoned now so you can come and hunt for mice that live here.

No New Posts ;;the canal grand

The canal grand is a canal that goes all the way up Venice Italy. The canal sits along, climbing its way up the grounds and places of Venice Italy. On the canal which you barely see is man rowing small boats down the canal with other man sitting in the boats enjoying the light sound of trickling water as the tides push up the sides of where buidlings sit by the canal. This is where the cats of Nuotata which means tide lives. They live near the canal since it is the best fresh water place to go to. The alley ways are a bit farther down the canal.

Rialto Bridge is a bridge that is hanging over the Grand Canal. Man walk across it to get to the other part of the water city known as Venice. It is a big popular place for cats to roam and sit on the bridge and watch the last boats dock and then man leave. Mice creep and along with rats move across the bridge in the nighttime so it is a good place to go and hunt. This is also a good place to see the spring, summer, fall, and winter sunsets that fall behind the darkness of the earth.

No New Posts ;;st. mark's basilica

The first patron saint of Venice was St.Teodoro. In 828 St.Mark the Evangelist substituted him when two merchants smuggled his mortal remains back from Alessandria (Egypt). St. Mark was buried in the church. The church later suffered damage from fire and was modified many times to adapt to Venice's evolution of power and wealth. This simple church evolved into St.Mark's Basilica. The modifications to the Basilica continued on through an entire century, therefore the results of the construction exhibit a mixture of different styles. St.Mark's Basilica is also well known for the Pala d'Oro, one of the richest and most precious altar screens in the world. It is a good place to hunt and see the sites of Venice Italy.

No New Posts ;;the gulf

The gulf is where the grand canal empties into to. The cats of Nuotata are the closest to the gulf then the cats of Ricerca and Sbiadito are. You can come down here and enjoy the salty air, the clear and fresh water. The gulf moves down and into the Mediteranian Sea. If you are close enough you might spot in the foggy distance a couple ships coming towards Venice. From the gulf you can go over to the lighthouse that sits on a piece of dry land next to the gulf.

The great dip sits before the gulf dips down. It was formed by crevacing rocks dipping and water elevating it. So the beginning of the gulf is lined with rocks and erouded away stones and dirt. The great dip is also on land on a small sandy beach. Never had cartographers graphed this deep near the gulf. So it is unclaimed as a piece of land that is part of the city. This is where you can come and sit on the small sandy beach and watch the sunset fall behind the horizen.

The abandoned village sits alone a bit far away from the main attraction Venice Italy. It is abandoned and many loners and rogues call the abandoned village which is very small with only five small houses and other things, home. It is an interesting place. The map graphers never put the abandoned village on maps thinking the idea of an abandoned village might scare tourists away. Some cats fear that the ghosts of those who died here still walk the small road.
