This time, I came to care for 

Larry-chan, an adorable black cat.💕 

At our meeting, I'd gotten to see her looking lovely up on the bed, so I arrived for the first day of care with my spirits soaring. 

Huh? She's… no-where… to be found… 

Well, this happens often enough with cats. 

So first I cleared my care-taking mission, and then the cat hunt began — which is part of the fun, too!😊 

Under the sofa, behind the curtains, in the gaps between the furniture — I kept searching, and at last I found her‼️ 

There was Larry-chan, under the bed.❤️ 

Yawning now and then, she was clearly in relaxed mode — though sadly, this time, all I got was a bit of eye contact from her hiding spot.🤭 

I'd love a rematch next time!👍 

See you again, Larry-chan👋

The ones I came to care for this time are 

was Koto-chan, a three-year-old calico cat.😺 

It had been a while since their last request, 

and this time it was a three-day stay.😊 

Last time she was ever so shy, 

and wouldn't touch her treats at all, 

but this time — would you believe it — 

she ate her treats all three days! 

🌱Day 1🌱 

☘️Day 2☘️ 

🍀Day 3🍀 

Once again, she did a wonderful job holding down the fort! 

I'm already looking forward to seeing her 

happy and well again next time.😸 

See you again next time, Koto-chan!🧡

This time, the lovely Ragdoll Tanu-chan. 

Day by day, her expression slowly began to change — 

please, take a look!😄 

Day One. 

"Who are you?" 

"Please don't come so close…" 

— that's just what she seemed to be saying.😅 

I thought she'd greeted me with a little "meow," 

but then came a cute little growl, and even a "hiss!" 

That's how she spoke to me that day.😄 

Day Two. 

She was still a little on guard, but 

even as I edged a bit closer, she slipped away far less often.☺️ 

Though if I got a touch too close, she'd still tuck herself away just a little. 

No more growling or hissing — she padded around the room with the sweetest little meows.😊 

Day Three. 

And then — would you believe it — Tanu-chan came and nuzzled right up against me! (Such a shame I couldn't capture it on camera.🥹) 

She showed me her tummy, too — a wonderful surprise from Tanu-chan on our very last day. 

Her expression seemed to have softened, just a little… 

Even with treats — on Day Two she wouldn't take them, even held right to her mouth, but by Day Three she ate them happily. Feeling the distance between us shrink, little by little, made me so very glad.☺️ 

Sweet little Tanu-chan.💕 

I do hope we'll meet again. 

Thank you so much!😊

His name is Anmitsu-kun. 

A former rescue cat, a boy of about seven years old. 

Right from our first meeting, his friendliness was on full display. 

"I'm joining in too!" 

— I could almost hear him say. 

Before I knew it, he was right beside the paperwork — as if to say he was an important member of the meeting too, ready to stamp his approval with a little paw print. 

Anmitsu-kun simply adores people. 

He must have been cherished so very dearly. 

Whenever I pointed the camera, he'd come walking right up to me — so my photo folder is filled with close-ups of his sweet face!📸💕 

He was supposed to be on the other side of the lens, yet somehow he was always right there, closest of all. 

He loves to play, and he loves being brushed. 

I'd be brushing him, and before I knew it, it had turned into playtime — gently nibbling my arm and telling me with his whole body, "Pay more attention to me!" 

Purring away as he launched into his playful bunny kicks — innocence itself.🐾 

My cheeks couldn't stop softening into a smile. 

Even when he got a little excited and a touch too strong, that, too, was part of his irresistible charm. 

When I'd say, "Ouch, that hurts," he'd gently lick me, as if to say, "I'm sorry" — such a tender heart.❤️ 

His right ear, shaped a little like a tiny cherry blossom petal, is now a special charm all his own. 

Friendly, affectionate, and always up for play. 

My time with Anmitsu-kun was always full of smiles.😊

"How old do you think I am?" 

"Fifteen years old, meow~~~!!!" 

"Full of energy, the champion cuddler, and I LOVE being petted — so hurry up and pet me already~~~!!!" 

"My special trick is 'shake'!" 

"See? Told you!" 

"Come pet me again and I'll shake for you! See you soon!" 

It was about two weeks of care, and from the very first day, I was completely charmed by Jelly-kun.🐾 

You did such a wonderful job holding down the fort! Be sure to get lots of praise from your mom!

The ones I came to care for this time are 

was Niko-chan, a three-year-old tortoiseshell cat.😺 

I've been caring for her once a year 

ever since she was one year old. 

And once again, here we were — reunited after a whole year!🎉 

​

​

Even after a year apart, 

she came all the way to the entrance to welcome me!✨ 

​

One year ago and the year before, 

we played with her favorite yellow cat teaser, but 

this time it was a blue one, 

and we played to our hearts' content! 

I'm already looking forward 

to seeing her again next time.😸
