Found all 21, some were a bit tricky to spot but we did it! We did the kitten trail first then carried on and did the full trail. Very enjoyable and a good way to see York.

We completed the York Cat Trail in October when we stayed in York for a couple of days. This was one of the highlights of the trip and kept us busy for a good couple of hours over 2 days!

We saw the reviews on TripAdvisor and decided to give it a try. We were not disappointed, it is a great, free and fun way to see the city of York. The route gives you loads of other little shops, coffee shops and restaurants to pop into so you can easily spend most of the day doing this.
