Aoshima Island is one of about a dozen "cat islands" around Japan, small places where there are significantly more feline residents than people. In Aoshima more than a hundred cats prowl the island, curling up in abandoned houses or strutting about in the quiet fishing village.

Manabeshima in Okayama prefecture, famed for being one of Japan's Cat Islands, is also home to incredible sceneries and local island life.
