This is being carried out as part of "Kanpai! (Cheers) Hiroshima - Look! - Eat! - Drink!", a tourism promotion campaign which was developed in June 2015. You can enjoy and experience the hidden charms of the backstreets and the scenery of Hiroshima from the perspective of cats which know them well.

The content of the first production consists of fascinating and adorably cute cats living in Onomichi. The production is also full of information on Onomichi, a town of slopes famous for its cats.

Also, as a tie-in project, the popular cat café MoCHA in Shibuya will be lending out tablets so you can experience the cat's street view in Hiroshima. Many events such as exhibition of Fukuishi-neko (lucky stone cats) may be seen in Onomichi. You can find information on Onomichi in the "Kanpai! (Cheers!) Guide book of Hiroshima Prefecture", free lemon soda pop (limited quantity) and exhibitions of photos of "well-known cats" will be provided as a service of Hiroshima from September 1st to September 30th.
