Turkish Man Ordered to Pay Alimony for Cats for Decade

A Turkish citizen in Istanbul has been mandated to pay alimony for two cats following a divorce, according to reports by the Turkish newspaper Hürriyet on October 20. The divorce, which concluded after two years of marriage due to irreconcilable differences, included an agreement requiring the man to provide 10,000 Turkish lira (approximately 19,500 rubles) every three months for a decade to cover the cats’ upkeep. Both parties confirmed they have no further claims against each other and accepted all terms of the arrangement.
