What am I sappy cat blogging?

Because it’s Thanksgiving, we want to take a moment and remind ourselves what we’re truly thankful for: friendship. And one of the most meaningful and important things about friendship is that it can happen between different backgrounds, different ideals, different thinking, different appearances and even different species. Take, for example, the story of Marimo the cat and Fuku the owl, who live in a cafe in Osaka, Japan.
The two met when Marimo was just a few months old and immediately hit it off. They’ve grown older but have remained best friends.
Marimo and Fuku sleep together, play together and hang out together. They’re so close that the inseparable couple were nicknamed FukuMari. They’ve become quite a popular tourist attraction too, resulting in overwhelming visitors to the Hukulou Coffee shop in Osaka where they live.
You can go to see them in person but the shop owner is careful to not let Fuku get too tired, especially since a coffee shop is not it’s natural habitat. If you can’t make it to Osaka, FukuMari has a photobook coming out on December 24, 2015 and it’s going to be available through Amazon.
FukuMari are one of the more adorable reminders that we can all get along despite our differences. Happy Thanksgiving!

Well, maybe not a real lion, but it made me take a second look – and smile.

Stationmaster Tama is 16 years old and has been in charge of the Kishi Station in Wakayama Prefecture, Japan since 2008. She’s also a cat.
Wakayama Dentetsu, the city where the station is located, loves the furry professional, and even decorated a train in her honor. Called the Tama Train, it was specially painted with cartoons of her likeness. The themed train has recently gotten an upgrade and now features giant cat ears, whiskers, and a stationmaster hat. The inside is air-conditioned and has some pretty funky furniture: The chairs are shaped like cats and the couches have fun feline patterns. There is even an elaborate cage for when the stationmaster wishes to ride the train (when she’s not there, a cardboard drawing of her fills her space).
