[Animal Tourism: Cat Island] Japan: Yushima, Kumamoto Prefecture
Yushima is a small island in Kumamoto prefecture. It is a cat paradise that has been attracting attention because it has been featured in the media such as TV in recent years on the cat island in the Ariake Sea. Yushima is home to about 200 cats, but most of them are taken care of by the islanders, so they are not stray cats.
