Age: Approximately 5–6 years old (male)
Coat: Black-and-white tuxedo, folded ears
Rescued: 2026, from a mountain village
Current Home: Matsumoto Ukiki Shelter

This little guy mysteriously appeared near an abandoned house in a mountain village, where the owner of Shioinoyu, a historic public bathhouse in Matsumoto, had been caring for other cats. Our CEO, Imamura,  also helped rescue him, and he's now waiting for his forever family at our local shelter.

He's a little timid and extremely cautious around strangers. But once he gets to know you, he turns into a real sweetheart! With his comical face and a purr that starts up whenever he's petted, he's quite the lovable character.

His most charming feature? Those adorable folded ears! His daily routine involves sitting atop his cage and gazing out the window. What exactly he's so fascinated by is anyone's guess...

He is FIV-positive, but that doesn't stop him from being a wonderful companion. We're looking for a loving family who will respect his pace and take the time to earn his trust.
