The stray cats and kittens of Istanbul know that they have a home wherever Mustafa Efe is. Efe is an Imam in Istanbul's Üsküdar district at the Aziz Mahmud Hüdayi Mosque, and he has opened the doors of the mosque to all the neighborhood's many strays.
He first started letting in cats last winter, reports The Dodo, and since then, he's garnered significant attention online for his generous, animal-loving ways. He calls the cats "guests" of the mosque, and they've definitely made themselves at home, sitting in on prayers and relaxing on the carpets.
