Message from Kawanishi Town, Yamagata Prefecture

In our town, there has been a year-on-year increase in complaints and consultations regarding environmental damage caused by unowned cats and improperly cared-for cats, such as urine and feces damage and garbage scattering, as well as irresponsible feeding and breeding. To improve this situation even slightly and create a "town where we can live together" that is comfortable for both cats and people, we hope to use crowdfunding to connect this to ongoing efforts.

While there are no thank-you gifts for donations to this project, we would be grateful if many people would agree with the project's purpose and provide their warm support and cooperation.

Thank you for your understanding.
