No, that's the garden around the little restaurant building. Restaurants there allow the stray cats to enter.

Onur lives in an apartment building. Let me see if I can find a video of his apartment building.

He also rents a different apartment as a cat shelter where some cats live inside and some live in the garden.

This is by the apartment building where he, his wife and child live.

This is the apartment Onur rents as his cat shelter. I think he tries to find homes for some of them. Also, he feeds other strays in the nice garden area.

Lovely to watch those” spoiled” dogs and kitties being fed...he certainly does have a lot of love in his heart to give to those animals.

What is it about cats? I just adore them.
I always considered myself a dog person. But I adopted my first stray cat in 1989 and came to understand they are quite affectionate and can even behave like a dog....some of my subsequent strays would follow me around the apartment like a dog.

They are quite graceful in how they move, nice to watch.

Here is a good view of Onur's shelter for cats in Turkey.... outside garden and inside views.

His previous shelter at another place was set on fire and he had to relocate.

This is so pretty....love the waterfall fountain and the pretty little restaurant. Nice place to live for stray cats. Somewhere in Turkey. Would be a nice vacation spot.

We have quite a few cats at the hospital I work at. We have some feral cats in our neighborhood, we started feeding them and tamed one, he still stays outside but sleeps in the garage in a heated bed

That nice you help them.

I know you have health issues currently but some rescue group might trap them, neuter them and then return them to you. Elsewise they do propagate fast.

They all have a clipped ear which indicates that they have been trapped and neutered. We have a camera and they come in the garage and eat the food, along with a possum and a raccoon, but we have only tamed one

That's great they are neutered. That's cute about the possum and the raccoon.

Even feral cats can grow to love you when you feed them and are kind towards them. I used to feed 12 many years ago.
