Visit the Yaeyama Islands, Okinawa, a tropical paradise. Meet the signboard cat at a guest house on Hateruma Island, Japan's southernmost inhabited island. Meet many cats at a sea turtle research facility on Kuroshima Island, where there are more cows than people, and at an old house with red tiles and coral hedges. Many cat-loving owners of guest houses on Hateruma Island love their cats as beckoning cats. On Kuroshima, the island of cows, you will meet many slim-faced island cats.
