A tope con la historia del gato Tombili que vivía en Estambul.
Se sentaba en un escalón de la calle con cara de "Pos aquí, echando la tarde" mientras observaba a la gente que pasaba.
Cuando murió colocaron una estatua en su honor con la misma pose.
Te quiero mucho, Tombili. 😍

When I first saw this cat called Tombili, I thought how charming it was.
Sadly, Tombili passed away in 2016 and those who loved her made a statue.
If I ever get the chance to go to Istanbul, I'd like to say hello to Tombili. 💕

Tombili, chat des rues à Kadıköy/Istanbul, est devenu célèbre grâce à cette photo.
Chaque jour, il aimait s'avachir sur ce trottoir, patte posée comme un humain qui réfléchit à la vie.
Décédé en août 2016 d’une insuffisance rénale, une statue à été érigée en son honneur. 🙏
