Basbousa
Cairo

The street friend of Cairo. In the app you can go and feed it or give it a pet; the more different days you come, the better it knows you.

By the numbers

Numbers read at 12:36 AM, Cairo time. No one's name appears on this page — only totals.

How it works

In the app, go to the city's landmark or its park — that's where the street friend lives.
Feed it with a food item from your bag, or just give it a pet.
It gets to know you better on each different day you come. The trust you earn doesn't go down.
Some mornings it wakes up in the home of one of the residents it trusts who slept at home in this city that night.
It doesn't go hungry and it doesn't blame you. Even after a long break, it remembers you when you come back.

Feed it too

Choose your city in the app, go to the landmark and feed its street friend.
