Sleeper is fed and taken care of by the students and likes to spend her day dozing in the sun and playing with the students during recess.
During class, she eats, plays, sits on the warm radiator, and even claims a spot to sleep on students' desks.
Speaking to Anadolu Agency, Dinç said the furry friend makes students extra eager to go to school.
Saying that Sleeper was allowed inside the school when the weather got cold, she added that the cat is now a beloved symbol and mascot of the school.
Developing a love for animals is part of the students' education, explained Arpacı.
"We had 160 students (at the school), but with Sleeper, now we have 161," he said.
Veli Savran, 10, agreed that Sleeper has no trouble living up to her name.
"Sleeper sometimes even follows the teacher's lessons along with us," he joked.
