The Cats (& Humans) of Istanbul

Getting to know the cats (kedi) of Istanbul, Turkey, and the locals who care for them.

The perception internationally is that Istanbul is a paradise for cats — a place where humans and cats live in harmony. But is this true? In this video, we explore the cat-obsessed neighborhood of Cihangir on the European side of Istanbul. Here is our experience on the ground with the cats of Istanbul and our encounters with the locals who interact with them every day.

Why So Many Cats? Istanbul, The City of Cats

THE CITY OF CATS

When you think of Istanbul, cats are not likely to be the first thing that comes to mind.

This ancient city is famous for so much, but it’s cats??

I remember years ago, my brother Jim told me he loved this place because all of the cats he saw here...

But where did they all come from?

Perhaps the one thing that shaped this city, more than any other influence was Islam…

Istanbul: The Purr-fect city for cats! (I'm not kitten around!)

I noticed in Istanbul, Turkey there are so many stray cats and dogs. In this video, I take you around Istanbul and explain why there are so many cats.

I also have a small interview with a Turkish person and I asked him why Turkish people love cats.

Türkiye'de çok fazla sokak kedisi ve köpeği olduğunu fark ettim. Bu videoda sizi İstanbul'u gezdiriyorum ve neden bu kadar çok kedi olduğunu açıklıyorum.

Ayrıca bir Türk ile küçük bir röportaj yaptım ve ona Türklerin kedileri neden sevdiğini sordum.

I visited Japan Cat Island, where there are more cats than people. Elderly people and cats coexist.

Aoshima, a cat island where cats and people live Aoshima, Ozu City, Ehime Prefecture
The island has a circumference of 4.2 km and is home to several hundred cats.
The only way to get to the island is by passenger boat, Aoshima, which makes two trips a day. There are no guest houses, stores, or vending machines on the island.

CATS OF ISTANBUL (How Moda is taking care of them!)

The street cats of Istanbul have become world famous. There is even a documentary about them. And in the neighbourhood of Moda Kadiköy in Istanbul, they definitely know how to look after their stray cats. In this video, I follow a Moda resident to learn about how they as a collective are coming together to look after their four-legged friends from the street. ????

ISTANBUL TRAVEL VLOG | Cats of Istanbul, Eating Cağ Kebab & the Grand Bazaar

Istanbul, Turkey | CATS OF ISTANBUL.

Come spend a day touring Istanbul with us! If you don't know, now you know that Istanbul is the city of cats. They are everywhere — hundreds of thousands, maybe millions live alongside the 15 million residents of Istanbul. And many are friendly! If you're a cat person, this city is for you. And we go on a bit of a petting spree in this video.

Istanbul is also home to incredibly delicious cuisine. Here, we try cağ kebap, lamb slow-cooked over a wood fire and served on skewers. Here's where we went in this video:
1. 22 Restaurant Bar in Chihangir, Beyoglu for coffee and tea
2. Sehzade for cağ kebap
3. The Grand Bazaar, one of the oldest and largest covered markets in the world. Touristy, but worth a visit. And if you look deeper you'll find one-of-a-kind antiques, jewelry, and more. We barely scratch the surface here, but wanted to give you a peak inside!

Istanbul is the city of cats

Istanbul is the city of cats

Istanbul, often dubbed the city where East meets West, is well-known for its abundant population of street cats. These feline friends can be found all over the city, from doorsteps to markets.

Local residents have a special fondness for these cats, often providing them with food, water, and shelter. They're not just pets; they're also seen as symbols of good fortune.

The presence of cats in Istanbul has inspired various forms of art and media, and there are ongoing efforts to ensure their well-being through programs aimed at population control and welfare improvement.

In essence, Istanbul's cats are an integral part of the city's identity, adding a unique charm to its streets.

The walls date far back to the Byzantine Empire and 16th century. Then pass by an Old Municipal Market of Chania (Agora) and walk through Ottoman-Venetian streets to the unique orthodox Church of Agios Nikolaos with two towers, one of which is a minaret.

Kuching’s Epic Cat Museum & Why It’s the City of Cats

My favorite theory on why Kuching is called the “City of Cats” involves the first Rajah of Sarawak who pointed at the settlement around 1839 and asked what it was. The local he asked thought the rajah was pointing at a cat, so he replied, “kucing,” or “cat” in Malay. True or not, the city is now filled with cat and cat stuff ????

A City FULL of Cats?? Spending a Day Traveling Through the Medieval Mediterranean Village of Kotor

Welcome to Kotor, Montenegro! We traveled here on our cruise around the Mediterranean and really enjoyed this medieval fortified city. In fact, Kotor is on the UNESCO World Heritage Site list and continues to draw in tourists with its beautiful stone buildings, amazing city walls, and unique mix of culture and history.

When we were here, we took walks throughout the city and enjoyed visiting some of the churches here, surprised to find one that was almost 1,000 years old! We also enjoyed all of the scenery on the way into the port, with the beautiful inlet and Kotor Bay presenting us with some of the best views of the Adriatic coastline.

One of the unique things about this city too is its cat population (which Katherine LOVED, of course). There are so many stray cats here, and many people in Kotor believe they are good luck! It is believed that cats were brought to Kotor on ships throughout the past few hundred years, and that these cats have been keeping the residents safe by taking care of the mice, rates, and snakes that thrive in the surrounding hills. Needless to say, these cats are being well taken care of!

Travel to Montenegro can be difficult and getting to Kotor seems a bit out of the way, but it was worth it for us! If you are traveling to Europe and want to visit a place that has a unique culture and history, amazing natural beauty, and all the cats you can dream of, then come to Kotor!

Many Turkish citizens view street animals as communally-owned pets, rather than traditional strays, and the country has a blanket no-kill, no capture policy.

Several hundred thousand cats roam the streets of Turkey's largest city, and each seems to be as cared for as the humans that live there. Istanbul has a long history of caring for its feline citizens that goes way back to the city's origin in the Ottoman Empire, so it makes sense that the cats are so well cared for.
