Street Cat

They may be insignificant, but their inherent vitality far exceeds our imagination.On the street, on the eaves, in the lanes, they are accompanied by garbage, sewage, odor, disease and killing machine to find room for survival.They are optimistic in nature and can still amuse themselves in the cracks and still be graceful in the dark, and can still be stubborn in difficulties.From news photographers to street cats veterans, from cat-catching cuteness to discovering the stories behind them, the author tracked cat shadows for more than a decade, transforming them from street cat-catcher to cat-protector volunteer, using photographs to tell about street cat trails and changing their rough lives.Ye Hanhua was originally a news photographer. He began filming the street cat ten years ago.When he was a photographer, he walked in and out of work with cameras on his back every day. In every work interval, he started shooting street cats for their loveliness.When he entered into the world of street cats, he found that the life of the lovely cats in our eyes was immeasurably bad.In the city where abuse of stray animals continued to occur, Ye decided to record the lifestyle of the cats with the camera.In the process of cat photography, Ye Hanhua was moved by the cat's stubbornness and devoted himself to the volunteer work of cat protection to help implement the "e;capture/sterilization/playback"e; program.He experienced the strange behaviors and attitudes of the city people to cats, with laughter, tears and blood and sweat.At the same time, he used simple words to record these experiences and the experience of filming the street cat.One hundred and seventy pictures of the cat's life have struck a lovely impression on most people, showing the cat's stubborn existence in the cracks, and glimpsing the other side of Hong Kong from the habitats of the survivors on the edge of the city.
