Japanese Resident in Istanbul Captures Heartwarming Bond Between Vendor and Cat
As you may know, in recent years, cats have been predominantly responsible for promoting Istanbul. Cats, roaming freely and behaving as if they own the city, have been catching the attention of tourists. The city, which has been enchanting with its beauty for years, now mesmerizes with its cats.
A Japanese resident in Turkey captured a market vendor working with a cat in his pocket. The video, shared with the note 'You can only see this in Turkey,' garnered much appreciation.

The capital of cats is "Catstanbul".
The Istanbul cat has been an integral part of this city for centuries. From the Byzantine era to the Ottoman Empire, from the republic to the present day, Istanbul has always coexisted with its cats. This cat is not a pet. It's free on the streets, a partner in the market, a guest in the mosque. It belongs to no one, yet it belongs to everyone.
In Western cultures, animals are either domesticated at home or wild outside. This free middle ground created by Istanbul does not exist in other cities. That's why when a tourist encounters a market cat, they are both surprised and enchanted. This scene is something that has no equivalent in their cultural references.
