"Cats are connoisseurs of comfort." — James Herriot https://clickapp.com/zk/cid/QmbMtTqrRmLH3BLGvBwiNxfuc5z8bxbH86zVmpqeAuYMWe \#clickoftheday #clickdeepreals #general #turkey #monday The more you know 💡 Avcılar, a lively district on the European side of Istanbul, is a perfect example of the city’s unique relationship with cats - one that has made Istanbul legendary worldwide. Kittens and adult cats roam freely and are cared for by the community, with locals placing out food, water, and even cozy cat houses on every street corner. Here, cats are integral to daily life, seen lounging in cafés and shop windows or exploring the city’s mosaics and parks. Istanbul’s deep cultural connection to felines dates back centuries, rooted in both Ottoman and Islamic tradition, where cats are honored for their cleanliness and charm. Avcılar’s residents uphold this legacy, welcoming street cats as neighbors and friends, and supporting their wellbeing through grassroots, city-wide efforts. For many, spotting playful kittens nestled together on a doorstep or across a sunlit bench is simply part of the city’s everyday wonder.
