The older one likes bunnies and her little sister likes cats.
Tashirojima, often simply called “Cat Island,” is a small island northeast of Japan where cats outnumber people by a significant margin. euronews
About 100+ cats live there alongside roughly 50 human residents, and the island embraces its feline presence with cat-themed sites like a Cat Shrine. euronews
Visitors can still go by ferry from Ishinomaki City and see cats lounging around the ports and paths. NICHIGO PRESS
🐈 Aoshima (Ehime Prefecture) — another well-known cat island
Aoshima is another famous “cat island” in southern Japan’s Seto Inland Sea, traditionally known for having many more cats than humans. Wikipedia
However, its cat population has declined in recent years due to aging animals, neutering efforts, and fewer visitors feeding them, and only a handful of people now live there. Wikipedia +1
It’s still accessible and considered a “cat island,” though less bustling than in its peak years. Wikipedia
😺 Other cat-rich islands
Japan has several smaller “cat islands,” including places like Ainoshima in Fukuoka Prefecture, where feral cats roam freely and attract visitors. Wikipedia
