Goku-kun, Who Loves a Good Game of Ball — Tennoji-ku, Osaka
Categories: Dogs > On the Job
Goku-kun was so excited to play that his tail was wagging away right from our very first meeting🐶

He led me all the way to the dog run below his home, where we enjoyed plenty of fetch☀️

Full of energy, Goku-kun would bring the ball right back to me — "Throw it again, quick!"☺️

Let's play lots together again soon~🥰

Mama's Boy, Sweet Chatora-kun — Higashiyodogawa-ku, Osaka
Categories: On the Job > Cats
Chatora-kun, a very shy boy of fourteen.
His very first stay home alone🏠

His mama is such a kind and wonderful person.
At our meeting, she shared with me the story of how she met Chatora-kun, and of her many other beloved companions over the years and the life they've shared.
Thank you so much💓
She truly is such a gentle mama✨
Now then, the first day of care.
Chatora-kun~!
Ah, there he is!
Hello there~🥰
I got to touch him💓💓💓

Of the six days of care, the only time he showed himself was that very first day.
So please, do enjoy these precious shots from day one❣️



Chatora-kun.
Thank you for letting me care for you.
If we meet again, I'd love for us to chat just a little more next time.
Chatora-kun.
Every single time, I could see the traces of him searching all around for his mama — and it brought me to tears.
You were lonely, weren't you…
You held down the fort for nearly a whole week!
You really are amazing👏✨
Chatora-kun.
You did so, so well~~~😽
Sweet, sweet Chatora-kun♥️
Well then, see you again~👋

Still and Lively, a Contrasting Pair — Zama, Kanagawa
Categories: Dogs > On the Job > Mini Pigs
Milk-chan, a micro pig.
With a cow-print coat
and a red ribbon that suits her so well, she's a lovely girl🐄🎀

Roy-kun, a Welsh Corgi.
A handsome fellow, five months old🥰

Milk-chan is usually ever so quiet, but
she's quite the foodie,
and she reacts right away when I start preparing meals.
Click, click, click, click…
Ah, here she comes (ha!).
The sound of her little hooves on the flooring tells me
she's on her way over🤭

Roy-kun waits alongside her, too🐾
Can you do a "sit," I wonder?
When I asked him,
『❔』
he looked puzzled for just a moment, but
he did it beautifully👏
And can you do a "shake"?
He did it! He earnestly placed his short little paw right in my hand😂
The sight of it was just too, too adorable😍💕
By the way,
I'm told Milk-chan can do "spin" and "shake," too😲!!
Pigs really are clever, aren't they?🐷✨


Milk-chan,
at first, didn't seem interested in me at all😅
But
as my visits added up, she grew used to me
and began coming over to my side✨

Roy-kun is still quite the little rascal, but
when I spoke to him,
he made lovely, steady eye contact👀
Thank you, both of you🐖🐕️💕
Remember me until the day we meet again☺️

Sweet Little Brother and Sister — Setagaya-ku, Tokyo
Categories: On the Job > Cats
I came for my very first visit with a pair of rescue cat siblings.

They seem a little nervous.

For now, they're watching me from inside their cage.

With those eyes fixed on me, I got a little nervous myself!

Little by little, they began to relax.

Next time, let's play together, okay?

The ones I came to care for this time are

Alicia-chan, a Munchkin,
and Aika-chan, a Scottish Fold!
When I arrived, the two of them gave me a thorough welcome, sniffing and nuzzling all over☺️

All through my care,
Alicia-chan was always right there by my side.

And Aika-chan would nuzzle up against me at every chance.
Both of them are adorable cats, simply brimming with grace!


And they both adore their Churu!
I'm looking forward to the day we meet again!

Our Beloved Mero-chan — Tsuzuki-ku, Yokohama
Categories: On the Job > Cats
Gorgeous,
with big, bright eyes,
a beautiful cat —
Mero-chan, a Ragamuffin.
Poised
and seemingly unshaken by anything,
that's Mero-chan.

But actually,
Mero-chan's heart
is ever so sensitive.
So during my care,
most of the time
she's tucked away in what we call
her "cave," right here.
Even when she gives in to the temptation of her beloved Churu
and slips out
of her cave without thinking,
the moment she's done eating,
off she hurries,
scurrying back to her cave.
Even when I invite her to play,
she's not so easily won over,
that's Mero-chan.
Now and then, though,
she does have her little slip-ups.
Oh yes, she does!
From inside her cave,
an arm poking out here,
half a body there.



And even so,
even Mero-chan
reveals the full glory of her splendid form
for me to see
every now and then.
And here it is.






Such a wonderful coat,
a magnificent tail!
And swish, swish,
she'll sometimes wave it about
for me, too!
But above all,
my personal favorite
is the one on the inside of her arm —
this, right here❣️
There's one in the very same spot on each side,
and when she throws a punch and such,
they peek in and out,
a little glimpse here and there —
I simply can't get enough!



On rare occasions,
I even get to see Mero-chan
with such a gentle expression as this.

Such a delicate little soul, our Mero-chan💞
The next time we meet,
I'd love to
start with a "Hiss — sss — puuunch!"
perhaps😆
And I look forward to that, too.
Do go easy on me, please🙇
