The Cat Whisperer with a Missing Shadow

I talk to cats. They tell me things.

I live a quiet life in Tokyo, with a head full of clouds and a heart full of trust. Long ago, something happened to me — I can't quite name it — but it let me speak with cats. I don't question much. I listen, I follow, and I do what must be done. A tortoiseshell once went missing. I walked across Japan to find her. Along the way, I met a young driver who became my friend. I don't see things like others do, but maybe that’s a kind of clear sight.

What I'm Into: cat gossip, Goma’s trail, Hoshino’s kindness, walking westward, stone doors
