As some of you know I recently had to move due to health issues (allergies). My new place is awesome though more expensive. 5 blcoks to a nice park with an ocean front on the pacific for running biking etc...
Unfortunately as many wild places in Okinawa it is heavilly populated by stray cats. They have many 'feeders' but TNR has yet to make inroads here perhaps due to the cost. This is a poor area of Japan.
They hang around the park benches and wait for someone to show up with kitty food and then come running.
This shy calico girl has been dubbed 'Zig' by me. the JBT gene seems to run rampant in the local population and there are all varieties of bobbed tails, fiddlehead tails, kinky tails, etc... Her tail is crimped into a zig-zag (3-4 opposing kinks!).
This little guy was one of last years kittens. I overheard one of the feeders talking. Apparently his siblings all died. He seems healthy and fat.
