The Four Paws foundation unveiled an open-air exhibition of photos of stray cats and dogs, said the foundation on its website.
The exhibition is in Sofia's City Garden in front of the National Theatre and will be on till end of November.
The 32 photos are made by the Dutch photographer Marcel Fens who wants to present more different and positive outlook towards the street animals.
“Whenever I see a stray animal, I see it not as a problem, but as a beautiful living being,” Fens said. “Although they appear in the news only when an accident has happened and then the society turns against them. This is absolutely unfair, because in reality they are not scary, on the contrary – quite often they are extremely funny.”
Fens lives in Bulgaria since 2008 but starts to photograph dogs and cats on the streets of Sofia at the beginning of 2013.
