In the fall, especially with Halloween around the corner, it can be nice to stroll through a cemetery to soak up the creepy atmosphere.
If you're in Tokyo, you may want to visit the Aoyama Cemetery. Not only does it contain the graves of many notable Japanese, but it's also the home of many stray cats that never fail to greet cat-loving tourists.
Fun fact: the Aoyama Cemetery's most famous grave is that of Hachiko, the dutiful dog who inspired the movie Hachi: a Dog's Tale with Richard Gere.

P.S. Have you seen the cats from the Ginza shopping district in Tokyo (warning: cuteness overload) and the creepy cat of the Numazu cemetery?
Beautiful cats! Thanks so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteCute collection of kitties! I hope they do well living there! Great photos. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteSweet kitties! I didn't know Hachiko's grave was there.
ReplyDeleteWe love the beautiful markings on those sweeties!
ReplyDeleteI loved seeing your photos. I presume these are feral cats, so it's always interesting to see them making their way in their world.
ReplyDeleteThey are so cute and adorable!!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day, my friend!!!
What great cats! We assume they are being taken care of?
ReplyDeleteThey are so beautiful. They're ear tipped so we guess someone takes care of them?
ReplyDeleteI was in Tokyo's Ginza shopping district but I didn't see one cat! I'll have to check out that link and see what I missed.
ReplyDeleteI wish they could all have forever homes.
ReplyDeleteLes chats de l'Asie sont généralement beaux, fins, aristocratiques. Et le Japon ... en est le parfait contre exemple. C'est assez étonnant.
ReplyDeleteBonne semaine

These kitties sure have beautiful markings. What an interesting place!
ReplyDeleteThe kitty with the beard and goatee is so unusual and fascinating. His ears even have a bit of a curl. Another place Mom says she'd like to visit. Our dad has been to Japan at least fifteen times, but Mom has never been. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
ReplyDeleteWhat fun to see all those cats. We loved the movie about Hachiko. That was a wonderful movie and book. That was such a great dog. Thanks for the great pictures.
