So Full of Kindness — Konan-ku, Yokohama
Categories: Dogs > On the Job > Cats
Allow me to introduce them!
Each of them has two names😄.
First,
Hanna-san, also known as Kyaa-chan.

A graceful beauty whom sunflowers suit so well!
Her every movement is so elegant — a lady I'd love to learn from😊.
And next,
Pan-kun, also known as Ochi-kun.

A calm, composed fellow with big, round eyes!
His dignified face is simply wonderful!
And lastly,
Riz-chan, also known as Miki-chan☺️.

Miki-chan is such an affectionate little one,
and her little cries are ever so adorable😊.
Amazingly, they all understand both of their names perfectly😊.
Come mealtime, Kyaa-chan especially
lets the others go first —❣️
such a big sister, only beginning to eat once everyone else has settled down.
And Ochi-kun, too — when Miki-chan comes sniffing around in search, he steps aside with an "After you!!"
Such thoughtful, considerate ones, all of them🥰.

Since the World Cup is in full swing, we all tried a bit of soccer together😁.
Ochi-kun made quite the fine goalkeeper (ha!).
Let's have another match again sometime⚽️😄.

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~👋

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🙇

Three of Them, All Doing Their Best! — Nishinomiya, Hyogo
Categories: Rabbits > On the Job > Cats
Six days of home-alone care in a brand-new house they'd only just moved into.
With a little anxiety in the air, the three of them did their best together😊
"A stranger's here!" — and the two cats dashed off to hide in the cat tower.
Taro-kun and Ryo-kun, two brother cats as alike as two peas in a pod🐱🐱
So as not to mix up their names, I observed them closely, trying to spot each little difference. Staaare~👀✨

This is Taro-kun.
While I cleaned, he went zip! and dashed off to hide in a cardboard box.

And this is Ryo-kun.
He retreated to the very back of the cat tower and wouldn't come out at all.

And the third sibling🐰
is Moka-kun the bunny.
So friendly right from our very first hello!

Taro-kun, who'd hidden in the cardboard box, soon let his guard down and relaxed.
He'd wander around me as I cleaned🐾
now and then chatting away with a little "meow~" as he circled about🐾🐾
Before long, he was perfectly fine with being petted, too💕

As for Ryo-kun, who wouldn't leave the cat tower, I lured him out with Churu — success!
Perhaps a bit more at ease, he came out of the tower and wandered about.
Not realizing this, and sure that the one wandering around was Taro-kun, I gave him a good, thorough petting🐱👋
But looking more closely…
why, it was Ryo-kun!
It was Ryo-kun who'd been letting me pet him all along😍

Friendly little Moka-kun the bunny loves his treats.
The moment I opened his cage door, he'd lean in eagerly — "Hurry, gimme!" (ha!).
When I cleaned beside him as he relaxed, now and then he'd scold me with a thump! of his front paw.
So sorry to disturb your rest!😌

By the sixth and final day, everyone had settled into full relaxation mode🍀
It made me so happy to see them warm up to me more and more each day.
Soothed by these three adorable ones, I was a sitter brimming with happiness.
By the way… could you tell the difference between Taro-kun and Ryo-kun?😄
