In the Balkans and Turkey you don’t own a cat. They just live in your neighborhood.
I was wondering why the value was so low when I’ve heard Turkiye lovessss their cats. (Kinda makes me want to move there lol)
I’ve seen Kedi - like… cats must be considered a public good for numbers so low.
The cats own you!
Looks like the cats are nearing majority rule in Romania, I wonder how much longer until they start pushing through cat leaning legislation?
Once it passes the threshold, anyone adopting a cat will be entitled to fully paid caternity leave.
Ownership might not be the best word …
Perhaps how many households are inhabited by cats?
Or just cats per capita?
Cats per capita would be a very different map in the east, like Greece and Turkey. They have a lot of street cats that are taken care of by the neighborhood.
Yeah there’s no cats in Turkish households because they’re all chilling in the streets of Istanbul
Yeah, Turkiye was def a surprise (bcs I don’t know anything besides two cities) - it also made me think that some people that have regularly or even regular cats in or around their house might not consider themselves as cat “owners” or owned by cats or a cat household. So that “free to leave” cats arent considered in this statistics.
Being a Turkish cat and sticking to one household is like being a New Yorker and sticking to one pizzeria.
Not entirely uncommon, but still a stupid fucking decision only a moron would make.
But now I need the dog version of this.
“owning”
Portugal cyk blyat!

Which country is CHE?
Well, that’s where Switzerland is, but I have no idea why it’s labeled CHE.
It comes from the Latin name for Switzerland; Confoederatio Helvetica
it’s just weird to see the E on the end for me, i’m used to switzerland simply being CH
They went for the alpha-3 codes on this map instead of alpha-2. In theory they’re clearer, but in Europe most people are used to the alpha-2 codes.
Looks like the 3-letters version: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_3166_country_codes
I’d like stats on the Vatican, plz.
