I’ve been spending so many months reading and writing about the cats, dogs and other animals in Japan’s Fukushima exclusion zone… it’s nice to read a little history of the beckoning cat. I must admit that I hate the idea that cats are used in the cafes like that but, at least they have homes. Would love to see you write about the animals who are waiting to be rescued. There are very few English speaking blogs and news media groups who are following their story and they animals and their rescuers are in desperate need of our help.

You can find out more these Facebook pages: “The Hachiko Coalition”, “Loyal Tsunami Dogs, Cats and other Animals” , “Dedicated to the mystery surrounding the two tsunami dogs”. There are some amazing stories that haven’t been written yet.

Sad, but hilariously true.
