The homeless of Athens

During our visit to Athens we came across A LOT of stray/homeless animals.  In my guide book it said there was 150,000 stray animals in the city, but my guide book was from 2006.  During the day they walked around the streets and at night took refuge in shop doorways.  As most of you know I am a huge animal lover, all the strays broke my heart.  I went so far as too keep leftovers from my meals to give to the dogs we encountered on the street.  Jeff thought I was crazy, but I didn't care.  Poor things :-(
