There once was a cat by the name of Tombili (a common Turkish name that is given to chubby pets) who lived in the Kadıköy district of Istanbul, Turkey.

She was famous for leaning against steps and people watching. She was also known for her friendly demeanor. When she died in early August of 2016, a petition received 17,000 signatures to commemorate her life. A local sculptor by the name of Seval Şahin created a sculpture that recreated her reclining pose.

A few months later, the statue disappeared, which prompted a public outcry. A Turkish politician was quoted as saying, “They stole the Tombili statue. They are enemies of everything beautiful. All they know is hate, tears and war.”

The statue was returned two days later."

Posted by LaurenI thought this was an accurate representation of how we feel every time we remember our last cat, which happens often when my daughter and I laugh over our current cat's antics.
