Hello everyone and dear followers! 🤗 I posted Stories with some AI artwork of cats with my prompts. I will alternate content between some digital creations and with real cats in real life. It's been a long time I haven't posted something here as, but I will keep it up with posting whenever is possible within my capacity 😌💟🐈

Hello cat lovers 🐱❤️👋

Today is October Friday the 13th 👻 Always a reminder that BLACK CATS ARE NOT BAD LUCK! They are the most adorable and chill cats 🐈‍⬛♥️🖤 They are like mini panthers 🥰 This cat I named it Nikki in 2016, a female one that has has been living in the same place for over 7 years, a TNRd cat and no matter even if the old factory was demolished she has never left the place or the neighboring area, her "home" is where she was born and her freedom. Remember not all cats will adapt living indoors or to be rescued, they were born as semi ferals and she's fine as it is.

Today let me tell about my "Journey Through Time" experience with stray cats since I started to photograph or take video footages with my smartphone. Here's one of the cats I encountered about 5 to 6 years ago, she's a spayed kitty so that means she has a TNR (Trap, Neuter & Return) ear-tip cut to prevent more kittens to be born and suffer. She's a feral that is not fond of petting and close human interaction or contact, but very cute 🥰🐱 Many people sometimes worry when we post stray cats pictures, but remember there are cats that simply don't like human contact because some were born as ferals, they were not a consequence of abandonment. We need to understand that some feral cats will never adapt living indoors or they are already adapted to the environment they live. We cannot force certain situations especially with ferals, this cat is one☝️ She's a healthy and naturally clean cat that lives around a factory and close to a convenience store. When I first met this cat, it already had the ear-tip cut, I've heard from the Japanese staff of the convenience store that a local volunteer helped to get some strays around the area to be neutered/spayed. Gladly all of the cats that I know or that I feed are neutered/spayed, thanks to all the kind humans that helped those animals 💫💕 After all these years, this one definitely has been fed by locals besides me feeding whenever I could, because even after most rigorous winter it has showed up healthy, this kitty certainly has a secret safe place as refuge. Thank God 🙏❤️

“JOURNEY THROUGH TIME: Capturing the Soulful Strays"

Since 2015, I embarked on a remarkable photographic journey that forever imprinted the feline beauty and resilience in my heart. Nestled in the heart of the city, a colony of stray cats became my muse and inspiration, each one leaving an indelible mark on my soul.

These magnificent creatures, once timid and elusive, now grace my camera lens with their presence. Their untamed spirits are matched only by their unwavering strength. The passage of time has witnessed their comings and goings, as some continue to grace my lens, while others have vanished, leaving a void that echoes through my photographs.

Yet, their legacy lives on. Through the incredible power of TNR—Trap, Neuter & Return—we ensured a safer future for these majestic wanderers. Their spayed and neutered lives were a testament to the collective effort of kind-hearted souls. Each click of the shutter served as a testament to the resilience of these feline companions.

Every photograph tells a story—a tale of survival, of connection, and of love. The images I share with you today are fragments of a larger narrative, a testament to the beauty that can be found amidst the shadows.

As the years have passed, I’ve witnessed the transformation of not only these incredible cats but also myself. Through my lens, I learned to appreciate the ephemeral moments, to find beauty in unexpected places, and to cherish the souls that grace our lives, even fleetingly.

Today, as I reflect upon the memories that these photographs evoke, I invite you to join me on this journey. Let us celebrate the spirit of these feline companions who have left an indelible paw print on my heart. May their stories inspire compassion, kindness, and the understanding that even the smallest act can make a significant difference.

Together, let us embark on a visual voyage, a tribute to the forgotten, and a celebration of the enduring spirit that binds us all.

Embark on this journey for an emotional and heartfelt even funny moments of such resilient cats through time as goes by ❤️

Hello Dear followers and also visitors to this page. How's everyone doing??
It's been a few days I haven't posted even though I really wish to keep this page as active as possible but sometimes for reasons of force majeure my physical and mental health come first, I've been treating against depression plus anxiety/OCD for many years so it can happen not to be very active every once in a while. However I regularly check Family Cats JP, I don't leave it simply abandoned because this page means a lot for me from the bottom of my heart. Since I work and I don't have full time dedicated to the platform, it is always challenging and even exhausting, but I try to create content for the page within my capacity, if I can't... I can't, and I work on it when I feel better. Cats are an inspiration for me to continue on this journey in life and posting on feed as status updates, reels, videos or stories have been of great help for me to continue this life in which I face ups and downs. I describe myself here as a Digital Creator but also as a Personal Blog where I can write a little about myself as in this update post, but the main content of this page is always about cats and/or felines 🐱 It is very rewarding to show beauty, smartness , dexterity and the funny side of the cats and the ones I have encountered over the years. At the same time, I have photos and images of cats where the true reality is not a rosy world, where life is sometimes very hard and difficult for them as street animals. Cats also suffer from abandonment, loneliness, hunger, neglect and a large part of humans' lack of knowledge of dealing with these very special beings who were fiercely persecuted since Medieval times. Cats and mental health awareness are topics I consider a lot. Well, I think I was able to express myself a little about my condition and my admiration for cats. Thank you all for understanding 🙏❤️🐈

Hi everyone,
Comment below with Yes or No
1. Are you a follower of this page?
2. It is my first time seeing/visiting this page.

So... I have been trying to revive this page, posting some updates, reels & stories but unfortunately it seems my content is not reaching out to those actually who came here organically that are followers or liked this page. Are you seeing this post?? Are you a follower or just got here by curiosity 🧐🤓 This page was created in dedication to the colony of cats I used to see then started to feed in front of a small cardboard box 📦 company from 2015 until I fell severely ill in late 2019 to 2022. The cardboard box company was demolished in 2021, and the cats spread out to other places near the former company. All the cats were spayed/neutered so I did what could with TNR and feeding until I got severe depression and was not able to go out anymore and do things... I have fought a long battle, I thought I couldn't survive such inner pain and emotional/physical suffering, but now as I am feeling better yet I have to keep taking care of myself, I am trying to create and post my own footages like photos and videos through all those years I made a bond with the furry friends 🐱❤️

Hi Dear followers 🐱
Stars feature are now allowed on my posts but still I am not able to receive the sent Stars because my page has not reached 1,000 followers, so I must meet the criteria in order to receive it 🙁 If you think I deserve some Stars, I will very much appreciate and be grateful ❤️ This monetization feature makes creators bring more unique content like this with videos and or photos. Choosing footage material, effects, editing overall and choosing music that doesn't infringe Copyright Laws, all these consume lots of effort, time and most of all creativity. Why I created this page named FamilyCatsJP?? It is because I have a profound gratitude for cats 🐱 It is really a long story, I can only say cats have saved me ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹 The special bond we have with animals are a divine gift for us humans. This sentiment is all about Love, respect and kindness. Humans could only learn more with animals no matter if it's a pet or any other animal 🐱🐶🐹🐰🦊🦆🐠

Hello dear followers,
Long time no posts nor anything else... I am trying to get back and be active on this page with unique videos and photos. From now I will only post on the feed with updates of its own page, videos and photography from my personal material or archives. I hope to spread some interesting, cute, funny and soulful feline/cat things on this platform ❤️ As I was treating physical and mental health issues, I am just giving one step at a time.... slowly with no rushes. I was in a long battle against depression so I can only be grateful to be here and the people who did not leave the page forever 🥺 Thank you for staying and please feel free to comment, like or share 🐈🐱🐈‍⬛❣️❣️

Cats are meowesome 😊🐱🙌

Gladly some people in the area apparently have been feeding them since I got ill with severe depression and I was unable to work for more than 2 years and also unable to look after these stray cats 😔 The white cat is not there anymore... he was most of the time sick and it was rescued by someone kind to be treated properly and have a comfortable place. All of the cats of this colony were TNRd in 2018 to 2019.

So true

Há 28 anos o mundo perdeu um grande
amante de gatos e animais em geral.
Também era um grande músico, compositor
e instrumentista...
"Sempre achei que a pessoa que não ama
os animais é incapaz de amar uma pessoa.
Eu gosto muito mais de gatos, talvez
porque muitas pessoas têm um conceito
falso sobre eles."💞🐾

Another typical Japanese New Year frame for photos & cards 😊🖼🎍Everything with cats looks so adorable! 💕

I love applying typical Japanese New Year frames on photos ☺️ I like applying some cute art on pictures, I’ve started to realize I enjoy a lot editing photos & videos.. but when I am feeling low & with depressed mood, I don’t get inspired. So I respect my moments I’m not into posting, depression is a very debilitating thing. FamilyCatsJP for me is a place to enjoy my little art, to advocate for animal well being and to post the cats I have encountered in my life 🐈♥️
