A pianist rescued nine cats from the streets and gave them a home. Now they are his most loyal audience and closest family.
Meet Sarper Duman and his feline friends.
Sarper Duman
Sarper Duman is a pianist that lives in Istanbul, Turkey. Besides his passion for music, he is devoted to his feline family.
He saved all his cats from the streets and brought them back to health. "I have nine cats now. All my cats are from the streets who I found injured and I helped them for all their treatment," Duman told Love Meow.
"I always play piano at my home almost every night and whenever I sit to play, all my cats come around, they hang out with me and they love to sleep around the piano."

One of his cats is blind, and they love to hang out listening to birds sing together.
"His happiest moment when Veysel is at the window. Listening to the birds, getting fresh air is our favorite activity. I hang out an hour every day at the window with my angel."

The kitties share a very strong bond with their human dad. They were all found in poor shape, and Duman took them off the streets and adopted them all.
