Creatures of the Street


Istanbul is a city that has seen many conquests over the centuries but seems to be under a different type of modern day siege. It appears that the cats and dogs have taken over the streets. Well fed and taken care of, especially around the ports and mosques, the street animals seem to rule the streets here. Not to be feared but to be pet and cuddled, the animals here are revered by the locals and either invoke fright or are adorned by travelers.
