Description

Even though it might seem a domesticated cat, it was a street cat, as most of the cats you could see in Turkey. Apparently, street dogs and cats are vaccinated and the proof is that they are kind of marked. That is so that they can be on the streets without danger. People on the restaurants feed them and everybody respects them. And they love people! You could be sitting down relaxing on a terrace and a cat or a dog would approach you asking for some petting, and they rarely bite (or so I was told).

This one was at the Blue Mosque's doors, watching at the tourists going in and out of the mosque. As an anecdote, as soon as I took my camera out and started trying to take a few nice shots of the cat, all tourists around started to become also interested on the cat and taking pictures of him, so I had to stop shooting as people was getting in the middle. Then, the cat seemed so fed up of such an amount of "clicks" and "oh", that he decided to leave *sighs*

Aunque pueda parecer un gato domesticado, era un gato callejero. Parece ser que los gatos y perros callejeros en Estambul están vacunados y la prueba es que están marcados. Esto es para que puedan vagar por las calles sin peligro. Los dueños de los restaurantes los alimentan y todo el mundo los respeta. ¡Y ellos adoran a la gente! Podrías estar sentado tranquilamente en una terraza y un perro o un gato se acercaría a ti para que le acariciases, y raramente muerden (o eso me dijeron).

Este estaba en la entrada de la Mezquita azul, mirando a los turistas entrar y salir de la misma. Como dato anecdótico, en cuanto saqué la cámara y me puse a intentar sacar un par de fotos buenas del gato, los turistas que había alrededor, parecieron interesarse por el gato también y empezaron a sacarle fotos, así que tuve que parar porque había gente poniéndose por el medio. Al cabo de un rato, el gato parecía harto de la gran cantidad de "clicks" y "oh" que decidió irse. *suspiro*
