I think if I saw a statue of a cat just chilling, I'd get the vibe. Humans have been entertained by animals doing human-like stuff since we first developed the brains to recognize it.
I know for a fact the name is Dombili. There is no such thing as tombili and I don't know why the wiki page says Tombili is Turkish for fatty.
There is Tombilik which is a small tuna fish and there is Tombik which is similar to Dombili but it's used for cuter things. While Dombili is more like slang in way you would jokingly say fatty.
To sum up there is no such thing as Tombili.
I wish you all a great life.
Well I'm Turkish and used to live in Kadıköy. I never heard anyone calling this cat Tombili. It was always Dombili. It seems someone made a mistake and it stuck with it.
Well anyone can make a mistake. But for this kind of a mistake I should be first forgetting my mother tongue so that I wouldn't know if the word "Tombili" is in the language and secondly I would have to start having memory problems about this very cat and where I've been living at the time. So yeah anything is possible.

I'm sorry, I'm really sorry... I love the tribute, it's very sweet, but I really can't stop seeing the cat version of the Ronaldo bust.
I see the sculptor was flattering, and portayed him as in his younger and less chubby days.
He knew it was going to be a bad day when he saw mountain lions roaming the streets.
Most statues are confusing to people who know nothing about them.
Go place a plaque that says "Mustafa Ataturk" and watch people's heads expose that he was actually a very small cat and not a normal sized human.
... how happy is he who calls himself a cat?

Turkish wiki also says Tombili, and these Turkish articles also uses Tombili?
