The Animal Care Home and Rehabilitation Center, which was implemented by Kocasinan Municipality in Kayseri, became the new home for stray animals. The modern facility, built on an area of ​​approximately 25 thousand square meters, is one of the modern animal care homes that set an example in Türkiye with both its capacity and the services it offers. The facility, established in Erkilet Generalemir District, was designed so that stray animals can live in a healthy, safe and peaceful environment.

‘WE BUILT WITH LOVE’
The center is equipped with modern shelter areas, natural habitats and comprehensive health units; Treatment, rehabilitation, neutering and adoption processes will be carried out professionally. Kocasinan Mayor Ahmet Çolakbayrakdar, in his statement regarding the project, stated that the work for stray animals continues to increase and said, “We built it with love, we established a warm home for stray animals. Congratulations.” Mayor Çolakbayrakdar emphasized that the facility is an example not only for Kayseri but throughout Türkiye, and stated that they give priority to projects that plan the future in municipality. Recalling the previously implemented “Little Friends Ambulance” and “Cat Town” projects, Çolakbayrakdar said that the new center is the most comprehensive step of this vision. Thanks to the natural habitat of approximately 1,500 square meters in the facility, animals can meet the soil and move freely. The center, supported by modern clinics and well-equipped veterinary services, was planned to contribute to both the physical and psychological recovery processes of the animals.

IT BECAME A HOME FOR 270 LIVES

The facility, which will be opened in the coming days, will play an important role in improving the living conditions of stray animals. While this project of Kocasinan Municipality is considered as “compassion transformed into architecture”, it will also play an important role in reinforcing Kayseri’s leading position among animal-friendly cities.

The conversation records reflected in the investigation file in the corruption and bribery operation carried out by the Istanbul Anatolian Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office against the CHP’s Ataşehir Municipality caused a stir. In the phone conversation between Deputy Mayor Oğuz Kaya and Municipal Police Director Mehmet Yılmaz, there were scandalous statements about how they were looking for a loophole to extort bribes from tradesmen. According to the conversation record dated January 19, 2026, Deputy Mayor Oğuz Kaya asks Police Chief Yılmaz to specifically “deal” with a company operating in İçerenköy. Yılmaz, who made an investigation on this, says about the company in the recording, “There is not a gram of leakage, they have always taken the license, the warehouse and the mepo.” After these words, he uses the phrase “This dishonorable person is so perfect.” It was noteworthy that the entire conversation used language that reflected the duo’s surprise and discomfort rather than satisfaction with the existence of a business that fully complies with the legislation.

‘WE WILL SEE YOU’
In the recording, Yılmaz’s words, “If he had too many shoes, I would strangle him. He has no deficit, no occupation, nothing,” and “We found his phone through the license… We’ll see, we’ll see.” These statements showed that the audit process was carried out with an understanding that “must be absolutely clear”. This record strengthened the allegations of “looking for the shortcomings of the tradesmen and putting pressure on them” regarding the municipal practices in Ataşehir.
