Daily MailA rather plump cat who found fame after a photo of him 'chilling out' swept the web, has had a statue erected in his honor.
Tombili from Istanbul, who passed away in August, was apparently known for lounging rump-side on the curb, with his belly hanging out and his front paws casually up.
And now, a bronze work has been installed in the feline's favourite spot, with his chilled-out pose captured for posterity.
