Woman Builds Stairway To "Heaven" For Stray Cats

Sebum Ilhan is a huge cat lover. And, as a result she has opened the doors of her home, to stray kitties. She created the most adorable way to invite them in.

Ilhan is a dentist in the town of Tekirdag, Turkey. The winter there has been really chilly this year. So, out of fear that homeless cats would suffer from being left out in the cold, she decided to build away for the cats to take refuge in her home through her window.
She made a way for them to reach her window.
“I made the ladder so the cats can come into my comfortable house,” Ilhan said.


At first, Ilhan thought maybe her neighbors would disapprove of the stairway for cats, so she jazzed the ladder up a bit.
“I thought if I put some flower pots there, it wouldn’t bother anyone,” she said. But the reception has been overwhelmingly positive — especially among the countless kitties who have taken advantage of her offer of a warm place to rest.



The ladder is just one of the ways Ilhan helps cats. She also volunteers to help stay dogs.
“I wish no animal is hungry or thirsty, just happy,” she said. “This world is not just for people.”

Imagine how grand it would be if everyone took the time to help stray cats like Ilhan! What and amazing world that would be! Share with friends!
