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.

    Thanks. However, now the real VERY SAD issues with these feral and stray cats that are suffering, and if you are watching DW German News and BBC UK News is that the people in war-torn Gaza are starving due to the lack of food coming in from Rafa (border town with Egypt), are now resorting to hunting down for feral and stray cats and kittens, and setting traps with bait in hessian sacks, so that when these cats enter them for food, they are immediately TRAPPED, and could NOT escape, and the sack is then tied-up, and with the alive cat trapped inside, the cat or kitten is STABBED to death inside the bag while the blood is drained-out. When no more blood is dripping and the sack is no longer moving, you all know the rest. Then the dead cat is prepped to be eaten by the starving people of Gaza due to the lack of food coming in from Rafa. Thus cooking it on an outdoor pot is required, since many residential dwellings are now destroyed since the October 7, 2023 attacks. So where is God or Allah when you need him ??? Its NO FAKE NEWS either. Have a nice day, and have some compassion for these suffering people there as well.☹

    I am a Turkish person living in Istanbul. Despite having a very low salary, every month I buy a sack of food for animals, and sometimes I walk through all the streets and distribute it. Occasionally, I directly leave it at animal shelters, and I do this by choosing different animals every month. For example, this month, I bought a large amount of cat food, and if I have enough money next month, I plan to get food for dogs.

    Heres something you may find interesting. :) The name of my country has nothing to do with the interesting and delicious bird ''turkey''. Name of my country has always been Turkiye, that is Turk-iye, where the -iye suffix means ''land of/belonging to''... ...just like the Latin suffix -ia in such countries as Latv-ia, Roman-ia, Eston-ia, Austr-ia, Austral-ia etc etc. Another example; decades ago Czechoslovakia Republic changed it's name to Czech Republic and a few years ago changed that to Czechia (that is Czech-ia). Anyways, most likely the Latin -ia suffix was derived from the Turkish version -iye, as Turkish is much much older. Because in old times people of different languages could only pronounce it as their languages allowed them, we got various differences in spelling like Turchia (in Italian), Turquie (in French) and Turkey (in English) all trying to resemble the pronounciation of ''Turk-ia'' thus Turkiye. Mind you this was way BEFORE the animal we currently know as 'turkey'' was found by the europeans when they explored the north americas.... ...they came across the bird and thought it was a specie of the fowl/chicken they had been buying from the country of Turkiye at the time, so they named the bird ''Turkey Fowl'' meaning ''Turkish Chicken''..... ....just like how a dog breed is known as German Shepherd (because it's from Germany), Rhodesian Ridgeback (because it's from Rhodesia), American Bulldog, British Terrier, Greek Harehound etc etc. In time you don't get to call the Greek Harehound as simply as ''Greek''; or you don't call the British Terrier as ''British''; or the German Shepherd as ''German'', but in time the Turkish Fowl started to be called just ''turkey'', and has been going on for hundreds of years. Now in 2023, this is causing confusion, especially when we have people across the world unable to point to their OWN country on the atlas, this ''confusion over the naming'' needed to be corrected. So my country decided to rectify this confusion that has been going on for so long and corrected the name in other languages to Türkiye, which it always was, we basically didn't change the name of our country, we changed the mistake made in the English language. : ) So, there's some tid bit information for you to have a great day, if you read upto this point you have a great night too, ohh just have a wonderfull life. : ) Best wishes. ;)

    lol NO! Are you kidding? They don't give a damn. Yup, there are animal hospitals but they don't treat them well. They treat them if they have some small injuries , otherwise they euthanasia them. Are you aware that street cats and dogs' population in Turkey is nearly 10 million? How do you think it's that much if those hospitals neuter them? They just don't care. Recently I callled the animal hospital to neuter 3 stray cats, and they told me to call them 2 months later to make an appointment because they were so busy. I took another make stray cat to another hospital and they told me that they don't neuter male cats.

    Yes! There are a lot of times when mama cats either end up at the doors of actual hospitals or vets on their own to give birth or sometimes carry their young in their mouths and bring them to hospitals so they get help. They literally know and recognize hospitals and vets and these are street cats, not domesticated. They should not know what a hospital or vet is. But they do and literally go there and meow until someone sees and helps them.

    I am in my thirties and always lived in cities of Turkey both in center towns and close neighborhoods and I only have seen a mouse or a rat maybe five times at most in my whole life; I don't even know what is the different between mouse and rat, they all mouse for me. Anyway, when I see videos of big cities like NY, London and like many others with rats running on the streets everywhere no matter day or night, I always think the problem is the lack of cats and dogs in those cities. I love seeing cats on streets even if I hate their loud meeting fights in the middle of the night. Gülü seven dikenine katlanır.

    I live in Eskişehir, another city in Turkey which is right next to capital Ankara, and the situation is the same here as it is in most of the country. We all have street cats who are fed by the locals, neighbors, and shop owners, cafes and restaurants. It's not just something specific to Istanbul, but you guys just know about Istanbul and don't care about other cities in Turkey so that'a why Istanbul is famous for its cats. Normally it's not a specific situation to Istanbul. For example our neighborhood cats are 4 of generation orange cats. Other cats also have families but their kids decided to venture out into other neighborhoods. The ones we feed and take care of are great-grandmother orange cat and her children the grandma orange, grandson orange and 4th generation greatgranddaughter orange lmao. Our neighbors or whoever is available feed them and they seek shelter in our gardens where we all built small houses for them.

    As a second generation 45 yo local of Istanbul, I can confirm that majority likes and enjoys the cats. It has been always like that. A cat can cross your way somewhere totally unexpected and can make your day with their friendly cuddle. You just forget your anger, problem or whatever keeps your mind busy and pay your attention to it. This possiblity alone makes them worth to have around. Burying own poop, being usually quiet and hunting rodents are the bonus.

    A tremendous and well researched video. Thank you for keeping us all informed and showing us so many examples of the adorable cats, and wonderful people, of Istanbul. Just like any human these dear little creatures want safety and comfort. They lead such dangerous and wild lives. Often, when i see them appreciating the affection we give them, I fear for their sanity and wellbeing. They appear to gain so much relief from our care. One can barely imagine the pressures they go through.

    Aku suka orang turki karena mereka begitu ramah pada kucing, kucing liar disana terlihat bersih dan tidak kelaparan 😊❤

    That British lady sounds like that Karen in the comments of any cat video claiming the caregiver is abusing the cat and he/she should know better..

    I detect a very distinct 'Kitty Vibe' going on there. I completely approve ! They are good for the human soul.

    I didn't like the Hillary's accusations. She is pretending like she is the savior of the Istanbul cats and tell all things like "my group did! we did! me and my group! my organization!" cut the crap please. :/ I know its not the best situations for stray animals but at least we let them live with us.

    Yea Karen is just annoying person probably. Life of animals is hard and their answer is to exterminate them. She is using her superiority to judge other cultures. These people never learn. You go to turkey you shut up and let them speak. I would critisize turkey when speaking to turks not shittalk. Also not sure how critisizing kedi doc is helpful or fair. And i always saw people taking cats to vets and helping in distress. Maybe some dont have money for that. If turkish people could do they would. White people really just dont get some things but also they are not good at shutting up

    There was a character in one of the cartoon magazines about Cihangir's cats. Even an animated movie was made about it. That character's name is 'Kötü kedi Şerafettin' (Bad cat Şerafettin).
