Aww haha, you really have been tracking them, that’s very entertaining. I like that graybie too, it almost looks like a snow bengal with those beautiful markings and colouring. And the owner’s face looks so peaceful. What a lucky kitty (and owner), getting so much love.
Looks like tabbies are very popular there too. Nice shots.
And a beautiful community on Reddit, r/StreetCatsOfTheWorld. It definitely makes me more aware of spotting kitties in the streets, lol. 😆

He was flattered after I praised his gray beast. That was so good to see.
They just have them from relatives and neighbors - there is no culture of buying unusual cats at stores here.
Btw, tabbies are the oldest coat pattern; they are the foundation, cats closest to the Great Cat Spirit than any other 😁 And also many of tabbies have features of cat populations that had lived in Asia before European kitties arrived on ships and mixed with the local felines. So, they are super interesting.
Yes, thank you. What is especially cool, real Reddit people joined who enjoy contributing. This niche was empty (r/notmycat is the only big one that is close but not the same) - because, as it turned out, Americans see strays and ferals as cats in trouble and normally photograph them when they are in awful conditions and need help, while people in Cetral and Eastern Europe, Turkey, Greece, as well as China, Korea, and Japan (as I know) enjoy free-roaming cats as part of life - part of urban landscape, history, and culture. I believe this difference is a reflection of a broader philosophy.
