We head to Yashima, where the local boss cat leads us to a temple along the Shikoku Pilgrimage. The temple grounds are home to cats that nap, play, and greet pilgrims and other visitors.

We spend a day with the cats of Shinjuku Golden-Gai, a retro bar district in Tokyo. One cat goes on a quiet morning patrol. At night, customers visit a bar where they can drink with two cats.
