“ Cat Island ” Almost Ran Out Of Food, Until The Internet Helped!

Aoshima, usually known as Cat Island, is a little remote island in the Ehime Prefecture of southern Japan, where cats outnumber humans 6 to 1.

You can only imagine how the human population felt when because of very bad weather, the food supply service was put on hold. So like everyone should do, Aoshima residents look for a help on the internet. “Please send cat food to Aoshima,” said the Tweet of a cat caretaker. “There are no places to buy food here on Aoshima. The people here obtain their necessities by taking a boat to the mainland. But, it’s very windy in winter, and boat service is commonly suspended.” Just a several days later, they were overwhelmed with donations.

“Please stop sending cat food to Aoshima,” said the following Tweet. “We got far more than we ever thought, and there’s no more storage room. We’ll be fine until April. Thank you all very much.” Who says cat lovers on the net can’t make a huge difference? Share this incredible story on Facebook!
