Open Sesame Inc. (Headquarters: Sagamihara City, Kanagawa Prefecture, Representative Director: Yo Takada) has officially released the iOS version of "NekoMikke," a community platform for cat lovers.

NekoMikke allows users to create a profile card for each cat, called a "My Nyanber Card," to enjoy recording and interacting about their beloved cats. It also serves as a service that connects various cat-related information and encounters, such as finding pet shops and rescue cats, searching for cat-related facilities, viewing reviews, and browsing cat news.

In addition to individual cat lovers, pet shops, breeders, rescue cat organizations, cat cafes, veterinary clinics, and cat goods shops can also use the platform to find cats and disseminate information. Furthermore, certified rescue cat organizations are provided with NekoMikke's full features for free indefinitely.

With the release of the iOS version, users can now post, interact, and gather information more easily from their smartphones using the same account as the web app version.

NekoMikke can be used not only by individuals but also by those involved in all cat-related services, such as pet shops and rescue cat organizations. When registered, corresponding icons will be displayed on Google Maps.

Cat Cafes, Veterinary Clinics, Pet Hotels, Pet Sitters

Cat Goods Shops, Pet Funeral Homes/Cemeteries, Cat Rentals, Pet Detectives

Other Organizations

Cat-related information and encounters are scattered by purpose.

Whether you want to record your beloved cat's life, are looking to adopt a cat, are involved in rescue cat activities, or are looking for cat-related facilities like breeders, pet shops, or cat cafes, the purposes and positions of people involved with cats are diverse.

On the other hand, current information dissemination and meeting places are scattered across social media, multiple websites, and more.

Additionally, there are distances created by differences in perspectives and values within the world surrounding cats.

NekoMikke was developed with the desire to bridge these divisions, even if just a little.

Every cat's life is equally precious.

"For the happiness of all cats."

Under this belief, NekoMikke aims to be a place where people and information related to cats can connect loosely.

"My Nyanber Card" that can be created for each cat

The core feature of NekoMikke is the "My Nyanber Card."

Users can create a profile card for each cat by registering their name, breed, birthday, gender, photos, videos, and more. Daily posts can be accumulated on the created card, serving as a growth record for their beloved cat.

Users can also exchange cards with each other and enjoy them as a collection.

Even those who do not own a cat can expand their collection with "O-nedari Cards" (request cards).

Available not only for individuals but also for rescue cat organizations and cat-related businesses.

NekoMikke offers six types of card categories based on the cat's status and purpose.

"Kai Neko" are cats living in general households, "Uri Neko" are cats introduced by pet shops or breeders, "Age Neko" are cats for whom rescue cat organizations are seeking adopters, and "Cafe Neko" are cats active in cat cafes.

Cats for rental / Cats seeking adopters / Cats anyone can meet

Furthermore, cats that have moved to new families through sales or adoption are called "Kako Neko" (past cats), and a system is in place to record them on the profile of the adopter.

One of NekoMikke's features is the ability to not only encounter cats but also to watch over their subsequent journey.

Information platform for cat lovers

NekoMikke also supports searching for cat-related facilities and posting reviews.

A wide range of facility information can be listed, including pet shops, breeders, rescue cat organizations, cat cafes, veterinary clinics, pet hotels, pet sitters, and cat goods shops.

It can also be used simply to view cat news and user posts, making it a useful information gathering tool not only for cat owners but also for anyone who loves cats.

From the Representative Director

What we wanted to achieve with NekoMikke is a place where information and encounters related to cats are connected into one.

We want to cherish not only the encounter with a cat but also its subsequent "cat life."

How are the cats that have traveled to new families through sales or adoption living afterward?

By making their journey visible as "Kako Neko," the achievements and trust of the businesses and organizations that sent them off are also conveyed.

And even after a beloved cat has passed away, its existence does not disappear.

The "Tenshi Neko" (angel cat) My Nyanber Card remains, connecting the proof of that cat's life and memories to the future.

From meeting a cat, to its subsequent life, and even to memories.

We hope NekoMikke can be a place that continues to watch over all of it.

Yo Takada, Representative Director, Open Sesame Inc.

When a cat becomes an "Angel Cat," wings are added to its card.

Future Developments

Starting with the official release of the iOS version, NekoMikke will further improve the user experience from smartphones. In the future, we plan to release an Android version, expand features for cat-related facilities and organizations, improve interaction functions, and enrich cat-related information.
