I live in Istanbul and the number of cats here is staggering. There are about 3 parks within a 5 minute walk of my apartment where you can sit down, and within a few minutes you will have at least 5 kittens on your lap. It's great, except at night when the female cats are in heat. It's pretty loud.

On an unrelated note, the person that runs the cat refuge in Cihangir, Hilary Sable, is my coworker! We work together at an English school here in Istanbul. Small world!
