BANGKOK: Amid a prolonged dry spell in Thailand, residents in three villages in Nakhon Sawan province have gathered to revive the traditional ritual of parading a cat to bring rain to the affected villages.
In a twist, the ritual, which traditionally involves a cat, was conducted in late April using a Doraemon soft toy in place of a live animal.
