Shy but Sweet, Little caocao-chan — Kanagawa-ku, Yokohama
Categories: On the Job > Cats
This time, my little companion for some home-alone time was the soft and fluffy caocao-chan.

On the first day of care, she was quite wary — "Who's this?" "Is it okay to come closer?"

But once we started playing with her toys, she came cuddling up with sweet little "meow~ meow~"s. She was just adorable.

On the second day, she welcomed me at the door with a "I've been waiting for you, meow~!"

We played so much together. caocao-chan, let's play again soon.♥️

A Close-Knit Brother and Sister — Meguro-ku, Tokyo
Categories: On the Job > Cats
Shun-kun and Milky-chan, an eighteen-year-old brother and sister.



As my visits grew more frequent, they began greeting me with a "meow," letting me know they were hungry.
With hearty appetites, the two of them are full of life!

They even let me brush them.
Milky-chan, who comes close for a little chat.


And Shun-kun, wonderfully easygoing and sweet.
Over three days of care, the two of them grew ever so close to me.💕
I'm already looking forward to seeing these two lovely ones again.

Bring Me My Breakfast at Once! — Chuo-ku, Osaka
Categories: On the Job > Cats
My first visit of the morning was to a brown tabby and white cat.
This is Mugi-kun.
"Good morning!"

"Breakfast time, meow~!" he greeted me, trotting over with a sprightly little step.
But then — uh-oh, what's this?!
Near the door of the room… he'd had a little accident💦
A classic "home-alone" moment!


"Teehee😜"
"So sorry, meow~."

"Kindly see to my breakfast before you tidy up the litter, if you please!"
"Oh no you don't! Litter comes first in the care routine — and besides, you were the one who made the mess!"

Aw, he looked so crestfallen…
I tidied up quickly and got his breakfast ready☺️
"Breakfast is served~! Here you go!"


He came dashing over to his food, and at last, the long-awaited munching time!💕

"That was delicious! Thank you for the meal!"
But the truth is, Mugi-kun was still a little peckish💧
You see, Mugi-kun is a touch on the plump side and tends to eat too fast, so his mom came up with a clever idea — putting half of his food into a plastic bottle with holes in it, so he can eat slowly while he plays.


Just as his mom intended, Mugi-kun rolled the bottle along as he ate.
Wonderful!✨✨



Sweet, affectionate little Mugi-kun🥰
Until we meet again!🤗💕

Eating Well, Staying Healthy — Meguro-ku, Tokyo
Categories: On the Job > Cats
This is Hector-kun.
With such a dignified face, you'd never guess it — but he's fifteen years old!
And this October, he'll turn sixteen.☘️

Is the secret to his good health a tasty meal?
He never skips his grooming, either!

Suki-chan simply adores people.💕
She'd follow right after me: "Pay attention to me, pay attention to me!"

Pressing herself up against the window,
or keeping a close watch as I cleaned the litter box.🐾

Or was she actually waiting for her meal?
Mealtime is always a battle⚡ for the prize — Hector-kun did his very best to make sure Suki-chan didn't snatch his away!

Let's meet again, happy and well!🐱

Konbu-kun, with All My Heart — Higashiyodogawa-ku, Osaka
Categories: On the Job > Cats
This is Konbu-kun, a British Shorthair.
A boy, four years old.

"Hello there~!"
— I called as I came in, but he was nowhere to be seen💦
Where could he be? Time for a little "are-you-alive" check!
And there he was (ha!).
Up on top of his cage,
he'd settled himself into a carry bag (a backpack one)!😆
On day one, we got acquainted with my "lick-the-Churu-off-my-finger" strategy.😆
And of course, my hands were nicely sanitized with an alcohol-free cleaner beforehand.
After that, he vanished from sight again.😅


By day two, he'd come to recognize me as "the person who brings the Churu" (ha!).
And on day three, as if he'd been waiting for me, Konbu-kun came over himself with a little "meow~."
He nuzzled right up against me.
This was the happiest, most joyful moment of all.😭😂🥰👍
It's everything a pet sitter could wish for.


Dignified and handsome, clearly showered with his family's love, just a touch bashful, and ever so friendly — that's Konbu-kun.💕︎💕︎
Should the chance ever come again, I sincerely hope to see him — that's this sitter's heartfelt wish.🙏
Thank you so much!

Always Near, Yet Out of Sight — Machida, Tokyo
Categories: On the Job > Cats
Chikuwa-kun, Penny-chan, Oreo-kun, and Apollo-chan.
I came to care for these four lovely cats.
At our meeting, the owner told me about them:
"All four are extremely shy, so even if you don't see them,
please don't mind it and just carry on."
Those were the owner's kind words.
On the first day, the room was perfectly silent when I entered,
but the cats were most likely upstairs,
giving it their all in a masterful game of hide-and-seek.
As I went about my care, I could somehow picture them
listening closely to my every move,
and it filled me with a happy little feeling.
On the second day, Apollo-chan, with her beautiful tortoiseshell coat,
finally showed herself. She even chatted away, almost as if singing a little song,
just for me.

Sadly, Chikuwa-kun, Penny-chan, and Oreo-kun
stayed out of sight right up until the final day.
But "we've checked the pet camera and they're all doing well,"
the owner kindly let me know — so I was able to finish my care
with complete peace of mind.
Chikuwa-kun, Penny-chan, Oreo-kun, and Apollo-chan,
may you always stay happy, healthy, and close together☺️
