Coin operated vending machines dispensing kibble for streetcats are my favourite shared infrastructure discovery this week.

@jessie awesome, where is this??

@codinghorror @jessie Istanbul, which is renowned for its street cats.

From Ottoman "cat sitters" to modern-day street guardians, Istanbul's bond with its cats runs centuries deep.

@dsilverman @codinghorror @jessie I remember watching this with my mom. I cried.

@Akki @dsilverman @codinghorror Oh heck, maybe I'll watch this when I'm feeling especially emotionally resilient...
