P.S. Will probably add soft subs eventually, though there's barely any Japanese in this video, so it shouldn't actually make things less understandable, at least not too much.

Cat Island is the first episode of TofuguTV! In this episode, we go to "Cat Island" (Tashirojima) Japan, a small island with less than 100 (very elderly) people, and hundreds (possibly thousands) of cats. In part one, you get to see the first half of the island, one of the villages, the cat shrine, and more. Enjoy and please subscribe for future episodes like this one!

Music is by one of my favorite bands, the "Brave Chandeliers" - Go check them out! You can download one of their songs free: http://bravechandeliers.com

Contrary to popular belief in the West, cats are not part of the Japanese cuisine.
