A Quietly Special Day — Toshima-ku, Tokyo
Categories: On the Job > Cats
The moment I opened the door—
Yama-kun, an American Shorthair, and Umi-kun, a British Shorthair, were right there to greet me.

And beyond them, little traces of how the two had been spending their free-spirited time.
A litter box shifted just a bit out of place, with sand scattered just past the edges.
A clear file folder that had been resting on the desk, now somehow in a completely different spot.
What kind of time had they been having here—
The imagination just couldn't help but wander.
And then, the moment I pulled out a toy.
Their little world burst into color and motion.
Yama-kun showed off that classic American Shorthair quickness.
Leaping lightly, switching direction in a flash, and already off to somewhere new by the next blink.
So fast, in fact, that even the photos came out a little blurred.


Umi-kun, on the other hand, carried that calm British Shorthair air—stepping into the play at just the right moments.
With effortless, unhurried movements, he naturally became the heart of the game before I even realized it.
That quiet presence is just so beautifully him.


After plenty of play—
Yama-kun glided straight over to his water.
Still carrying the spark of the game, he lapped away contentedly.

A little while later, it was Umi-kun's turn.
Walking over with calm, steady steps, he took one quiet sip.
Even in that small gesture, his gentle elegance shone through.

Sharing the same space, the same hours,
yet moving to such different rhythms.
And yet, side by side, they fit together with this quiet, surprising harmony—


Before I knew it,
I was completely wrapped up in that gentle, lively, heart-easing world.
A quietly special day, indeed.

Meow~♪
The one who came to greet me at the door was…
Helina-chan.

And Shinba-kun came over to say hello too.
Oh my, what absolute cuties😍😍😍

Shinba-kun loves his spot by the bay window, but…

He came down for some snack time🥰

And Helina-chan joined in for her munching moment too🥰
After snacks, it was time for toys.
Time to play.

Lots of running around.
And rolling about😄

Plus some adorable paw-tapping play😄

Cool from Every Angle — Meet Lulu-kun! — Higashiyodogawa-ku, Osaka
Categories: On the Job > Cats
This was my very first visit caring for 14-year-old Lulu-kun♡
Such a cool, handsome gentleman with the most beautifully composed presence✨😍

When I first stepped in, this dashing boy greeted me from atop his mom's bed, with the most adorable "what's going on?" look on his face❤️ 😆

"Meow!" — and just like that, this sweet, gentle boy hopped right down from the bed. Thank you so much, sweet Lulu-kun🙏💗

And right away, the happy purring began♡

He absolutely adores his matatabi-sprinkled plush toy♡(๑♡∀♡๑)

Lulu-kun…
Thank you so much for being such a good boy during your solo stay💗
I'm still learning every day as a sitter, but I'm already looking forward to seeing you again🥰
Lulu-kun, thank you for everything❣️😍

Three Handsome Brothers — Kawasaki-ku, Kawasaki
Categories: On the Job > Cats
This time, we had the joy of caring for three more wonderfully adorable kitties.🥰
First, let me introduce Torakichi-kun.
A little on the shy side.☺️
At first, this was how he greeted me,
doing his very best to stay tucked away.😅

He loves his treats,❤️ so little by little, we closed the distance between us.
When I held out my hand, he happily took the snack and enjoyed every bite.😊

By the end of my visit, he no longer hid when I came near — and even struck this adorable little pose for me.❤️

Next up, Rinmaru-kun.
What a friendly, sociable boy!☺️

Even when I pointed the camera at him, he didn't budge — and gave me the most perfect eye contact.👌

And next, Arashimaru-kun.
He prefers to keep just the right amount of distance — close, but not too close.🥰

He'd casually wander over to be near me…
But if I petted him just a little too much,
his expression would say, "Okay, that's enough now, please."😅

Rinmaru-kun and Arashimaru-kun share the same birthday.🎂
They're often together, and oh, are they ever a precious sight.🧡


Torakichi-kun is the calm, composed big brother of the family.
Rinmaru-kun and Arashimaru-kun are the energetic little brothers — sometimes squabbling, sometimes snuggled up together, always full of life.😊
The three of them did such a wonderful job during their three-day solo stay.
May you all keep getting along beautifully,
and may every day be filled with happiness.☺️
Until we meet again!

Hi, I'm Vivi♪ — Suginami-ku, Tokyo
Categories: On the Job > Cats
Almost one year old, and full of playful energy — that's me, a little Munchkin kitty!😺

Today was a big day for me — my very first solo stay-at-home debut!👏✨

A person I didn't know came over, and at first, I felt a little fidgety…
But it looked like she was checking on my water and my food.

Mmm, this water tastes so good.
I really wanted to play with her, so I kept following her around her feet, everywhere she went.🚶
"Meow, meow! Let's play, meow!"🐟

She called me "Vivi-chan"😊 and talked sweetly to me, petting me and telling me how cute, how cute I was.🧡

Aren't we going to play yet?
Oh! A toy!✨
I'll grab it, like this, and like that…
…turns out, it wasn't a toy.😅
Come on, let's play already!

Yay! Finally — my favorite, the fishy toy!🤩
My absolute favorite!😘
Chomp chomp, kick kick!
And this way, like this!

Take that!👣💨

Jump!💨
Look — I can do this too!
Pretty impressive, right?

"Wow, amazing!"✨ — she praised me, and I felt so proud!😝✌✨
I'm in my playful season,
so sometimes I get into a little bit of mischief…
But I did my very best on my long, first-ever solo stay.😽


So Papa, Mama — please give me lots and lots of praise
when you come home!
Vivi-chan, next time we meet,
let's play with the fishy toy together again, okay?🤗

A Heart Full of Love for Mom — Katsushika-ku, Tokyo
Categories: On the Job > Cats

This is Nori-kun.😊
A heart-meltingly adorable little boy who absolutely adores his mom.😊
He also loves a good chat,
and he's such a clever one, always answering me back so thoughtfully whenever I speak to him.💕

He loves his mom so much that the moment I told him, "Mom's coming home tomorrow!" — his eyes lit up like stars.🙌
What a beautiful visit it was, surrounded by the unmistakable warmth of love given and love received.😊
Nori-kun, please tell me more of your stories next time.😊
Thank you for such a wonderful time together.✨
