Stray cats saved Japanese restaurant from bankruptcy
Stray cats saved Japanese restaurant from bankruptcy
An unusual ‘cat cafe’ appeared in Japan as a result of compassion for homeless animals, shown by the owner of a small restaurant in Osaka. A railroad-themed catering establishment that had been successfully operating before the pandemic, began to collapse. Its owner Naoki Teraoka began to consider liquidation of his business as financial aid from the state dwindled. But then a case intervened in the life of the owner in the face of a sickly kitten, wandering near the restaurant.
The owner's family decided to adopt the kitten and called it Simba. Soon after that, a cat which turned out to be Simba's mother, came to the restaurant. Since there were practically no customers in the restaurant, and the surplus food remained, Naoki Teraoka began to feed the kittens. During the rainy season, another cat appeared in the restaurant with three kittens. They all ended up living in a restaurant.
The owner of the restaurant says that he did not specifically think over the plan to save the restaurant. He and his family just decided to help the cats who lived on the street at a difficult time for everyone.
As a result, the cats settled down in the restaurant among the model trains. And Teraoka took pictures and videos of cats playing in this tiny world of locomotives.
The publication of cat pictures on Instagram under the nickname @diorama_syokudou made the Osaka establishment a sensation. As a result, the owner decided to reinvent the restaurant, turning it into a cat shelter. Visitors could come to the cat cafe during their lunch break to interact with homeless animals. Cats can be adopted.
Gradually, the number of clients increased so much that Teraoka was forced to open a special shelter for cats on the second floor of the building, as well as a hotel for kittens.
According to the local media, the Japanese businessman is trying to populate the shelter with representatives of cat families who are at the greatest risk to their lives. He has already walked over 200 miles saving stray animals. Over 60 cats have found new homes thanks to an enterprising cat cafe owner. At the same time, the Teraoki family no longer thinks about liquidation of his business.
