Cat cemetery at San Antonio's Alamo has been removed to make way for new collections center

One of downtown San Antonio's lesser-known tourist attractions — a graveyard honoring the beloved felines of the Alamo — was quietly removed to make way for the soon-to-open center housing relics from the famous battle site. What's more, the tribute to the departed kitties might be gone for good, according to Alamo officials. Last summer, workers moved a pair of plaques commemorating C.C. and Ruby — beloved stray cats who lived on Alamo grounds — into storage while work got underway on the new Alamo Collections Center, Senior Marketing Director Sheila Mayfield told the Current.
