    Is it generally save to touch those cats? I've often been told to stay away from stray cats due to them possibly having illnesses or worms - but I could imagine that if they made the effort to spay them there, that ppl might also try to help against stuff like that. I really wanna visit one of those islands someday. I've also seen videos about a rabbit island and a fox village - pretty amazing, what Japan has to offer :D

But you can touch strays especially if nothings obviously wrong with them. Feral ones are the ones I wouldn’t ever touch.

    I wonder when the last ever boat will go to this island? In 10 years? Maybe less? The future of this island is bleak as long as young people don't move there. But honestly, who would move there? As a tourist attraction it's too secluded from the mainland, so you don't have nearly enough people coming there to make it profitable for any restaurant or a hostel. Your only possible occupations there could be tourism or fishing. I hope someone will invest in this island one day, otherwise it will become just another deserted town in Japan.

    I am interested to see that a minority of these cats have truncated tails! Occasionally I notice a cat with no tail at-all! I have visited the Isle of Man (part of the British Isles) which is home to the Manx Cat. They, also, have no tails. But there are plenty of non-Manx cats on that island, and a lot of inter-breeding between Manx and non-Manx cats. The absence of a tail is due to a genetic abnormality. I had thought that genes were either "dominant" or "recessive". I would expect that the offspring of a Manx and a non-Manx cat would have a normal tail, but apparently this is not always true. I have never encountered cats without tails anywhere outside the Isle of Man.
