The "Distance" Problem When Adopting a Cat from a Breeder

According to a survey by the Japan Pet Food Association, the number of pet cats in Japan has reached 9.155 million (Source: Pet Food Association Reiwa 5 National Dog and Cat Ownership Survey). When adopting a cat from a breeder, the distance to the breeder is an important selection criterion, considering the ease of visiting and post-adoption support.

However, the means to search for breeders in one's own residential area with specific conditions have been limited.

Overview of New Functionality

The newly added area search function allows you to narrow down breeders by combining the following conditions:

Search Conditions

• Area selection (can be specified at the prefecture and city/town level)
• Desired cat breed (Scottish Fold, Munchkin, Ragdoll, etc.)
• Availability of visits (only breeders who allow visits will be displayed)
• Availability of kittens currently for adoption

Display Content of Search Results

• Breeder's location area and nearest station
• List of handled cat breeds
• Overview of breeding policy
• "Nekomusubi's" unique breeder evaluation score

Why We Started with the Kinki Region

According to Yano Research Institute, the pet-related market has grown to 1.9 trillion yen (Source: Yano Research Institute), and the Kinki region is a major demand area, second only to Kanto. Osaka Prefecture has the second-largest population in Japan and is an area with many single-person households and dual-income households looking to adopt a cat.

In the future, we plan to sequentially expand our service areas to Kanto, Tokai, and Kyushu.

For those in the Kinki region considering adopting a cat, please try out "Nekomusubi's" area search function.
