Cats in the street of Taksim in Istanbul....

Somehow there are like TONS and TONS of cats roaming on the streets. You can see them just laying around or whatsoever...but none will actually bother you. Actually, they would be kinda ignoring you instead. Hahaha... Whats most amusing is, the cats here are REALLY big in size!! Isnt like any normal cats that you have seen in Asia (though they breed looks similiar....)

So as we walk, we saw this FIRST cat, and i decided to take a picture of it. Apparently, its either that the cats are used to human touched or they originally have the "heck-care" atttitude, they do not seem bothered by anyone's presence.

I was there for around ten minutes, snapping pictures of it, trying to lure the cat to look at me, but it was so difficult, because each time i shifted my position, it would shift its head to look elsewhere! Funny cat....indeed.

Yup, and you can see, faintly at the background, my partner was laughing away as the cat was ignoring me so much....and her laughter had attracted quite a number of people to look on at me, squating down in the middle of the alley, snapping pictures of this chillax-cat.

Thankfully, the images came out looking great! I used to have a cat as well, but there was not much chance that you would be able to snap a picture of her sitting quietly......and for me, it is rare to see animals being so nonchalent (and i was really close to it) about its surrounding even when i was really near it.
