Zeki named the cat Monkey. He liked the sound of the word.
Monkey, the cat, was the newest member of our family.
She had a prime seat, usually next to Zeki. When Monkey was there, she gave the best seat to him and hopped in his lap. If anyone chased her, Zeki calmed Monkey down and brought her back to her prized place. He would give her a sweet caress. He settled Monkey down and back she went to her seat, calmly proud of her spot.

Travel tip: watch out for wild cats and dogs in Istanbul. I watched people feeding them at outdoor restaurants, and they got bit. The last thing I want to deal with when I am traveling is an animal bite. So be careful – don’t feed the animals.
