Once upon a time, far from grand plazas and cold offices, there was a home adorned with paw prints on its walls, filled with an atmosphere of love. In this home, not just humans, but souls whose paths had crossed streets, shelters, and the harsh realities of fate, breathed together.
Kumi Cat was born from the purrs heard at dawn in this house, from the food bowls cleaned with sleepy eyes, and from promises made.
For our founder, Yasemin Celiloğlu, approaching an animal was nearly impossible for years due to severe allergies.
While she wished to adopt a cat or dog, for a long time, she had to content herself with feeding street animals.
After long treatments, Kuki, the first dog to enter her life, changed everything.
Kuki was not just a friend, but a turning point, reminding her that what was considered "impossible" was indeed possible.
Everyone in this home has a story:
Zeytin, once found on the street, is now the most vibrant form of love and the face of Kumi Cat.
Burhan, abandoned but never giving up, is the symbol of purest loyalty.
And Helva, whose heart is big enough for everyone…
This story isn't just Yasemin's.
It's filled with memories of everyone behind Kumi Cat, from our digital marketing agency to our graphic designer; moments when a paw met love and witnessed its own miracle.
Kumi Cat is not just a cat litter brand.
It is a story of healing together, taking ownership, and forming a true bond.
Because we believe that:
True quality lies not only in the product but also in the intention.
We hope that Kumi Cat, built with love and effort, reaches every home; and through this journey, we aspire to bring hope to more lives through our collaborations with shelters.
Kuki was a member of our family for 16.5 years. After Yasemin's intensive allergy treatments, enduring 3-4 years of injections, she was the miracle her father suddenly brought home. Our grandmother's favorite, her loss devastated us, but she instilled in the whole family an everlasting love for animals, our first love.
Rescued from the street as a tiny kitten, our grumpy but incredibly sweet girl has been with us for 11 years. Our father's great love. The wise princess who starts to complain the moment he sees her, asking where she is all day. Our true owner, who does her own thing and never compromises her authority.
That 300-gram miracle we found stuck to the asphalt in our grandmother's cemetery, abandoned by her mother…
This tiny warrior, who held onto life through incubators and challenging treatments, is now the most energetic and joyful member of our home.
Since we could never catch her still for a moment, we created a graphic face inspired by her photos and made her the brand face of Kumi Cat.
We believe her story will bring us luck and inspire many miracles.
Our noble boy, a Husky-Labrador mix, adopted from the Çorlu shelter after being spotted on an Instagram rescue page. Despite his size, he thinks he's a lap dog, and has a conscience deep enough to mother a stray kitten in the garden, bringing us peace.
She had a past filled with hardships, distrust, and unfinished stories.
She was a heartbroken soul, battered by many breeders. When she entered Yasemin's life, it was her final stop.
After years of patience and love, she slowly left her fears behind.
Today, Misha is the most peaceful, calm, and happy princess of the house.
The world's softest-furred cat, abandoned in front of the apartment building with his leash and toys. Our gentle friend who never gave up on love even while battling blood parasites, always coming to cuddle behind your neck whenever you sit down. Now, our dear one, patiently awaiting the day he will heal.
A story that began when Yasemin's hairdresser's cat gave birth and homes couldn't be found for the kittens. Unable to resist the last homeless kitten, she brought her home as a surprise to her family, making her Yasemin's first cat.
Very mischievous, very energetic… She quickly became the ruler of the house.
Zilli, who loves to eat a lot, isn't content with just her own food; after finishing her meal, she always shares in the food of her friends outside.
Once our next-door neighbor's dog. Now the precious, sweet trouble of our home. As a puppy, she was kept in the garden and didn't receive enough attention or care. Unable to bear it, our persistence finally led her to join our family. From day one, Cali filled the house with her love, very mischievous, very playful, but just as loving… Over time, she became not just a dog, but the joy of our home, the purest part of our hearts. Today, Cali is our family's one and only.
Our brave heart, who appeared by chance while we were looking for a companion, rescued from a sorrowful loneliness in 2025. This wounded soul, locked in a house for days, cut off from the outside world, smiled at life again with Yasemin's compassion. The silent battle she had with Misha when she first arrived turned into an unbreakable bond after two weeks. Shiny, with a gigantic self-confidence to even stand up to Helva, who is ten times her size, barks at everyone but is the fearless wild child who brings joy to the house with her unending smile.
Loving our pawed friends so much, we wanted to create a cat litter brand that offers the best for them, while also being affordable and accessible for you.
Kumi Cat was born with the intention of being a hope for every pawed friend who is hurting somewhere, abandoned, or simply waiting for a crumb of love.
When you become a part of this story, you are not just choosing a cat litter;
You are believing in Zeytin's miracle, touching Burhan, Misha, and many others,
adding a new page to the story of thousands of nameless heroes in shelters.
