in japanese cat cafes the cafe owners are the “owners” and guests are merely “borrowing” them during their stay at the cafe :) the cafe staff take care of the cats for the length of their feline lives :)

as for the vagrant with the incredibly well-kept cats, that’s actually not uncommon — even in manila :) some homeless people keep pets for company, and their pets a higher priority than even themselves.

when they find discarded food, the cats or dogs eat first before the owners. i know it seems sad that they are out on the streets but they seem happy enough in each other’s company.

For some reason this makes me kinda sad. I mean, what happens to the cat if the part-time owner loses interest in it (ex. he/she gets a boyfriend/girlfriend or gets married or whatever)? Does it get passed to another part-owner? Anyway, those cats in the pictures look well-groomed and well-fed so I guess they’re doing ok. When I was in Osaka last November, I saw a homeless man with at least five cats on his cart. His pets were fat! I wonder what he feeds them.
