“12 Cats Lady” Is Exploding Instagram With Her Twelve Persians

ADVERTISEMENT

The Japan-based owner of 12 fancy kitties, who proudly describes herself as a “full-time cat mom” reveals what it’s like to live with spoiled indoor chinchilla Persians and breaks all the cat lady stereotypes: ”I’m happy, so it doesn’t really matter what other people think about me having this many cats”- the woman told Catster.

“It started when we met our first cat, Yuki… We took her home after rescuing her in the middle of the road where we found her dirty and freezing.” Then, later the owner decided to adopt to two more Persian beauties. But what about the other nine? They are their children from the same litter! The lady assures that the cats are all spayed and neutered now so there’s no chance of having more kitties.

What’s her secret for getting all 12 furballs look straight into the camera? “I wave their favorite feather toy to get their attention and call the names of those who don’t look.”

Those cats are gorgeous, but that's a lot of upkeep in terms of shedding (she probably doesn't own any black clothes), brushing their coats, and buying food and litter.

To be honest, the cats are beautiful, but owning 12 at a time? Not something I'm interested in ever trying

Beautiful furbabies, but that's a lot of work right there. Grooming, feeding, cleaning up after. I have 5 rescues, 4 ragdolls, and 1 angora and the hair alone drives you nuts, and clipping nails, brushing and de-mating fur. And then there's the ones who use both the litter boxes and the floor. Despite it all love them to pieces.

It would be a full time job vacuuming and brushing and changing litter alone never mind feeding and the expense. Not for me. More power to her.

Imaging if they were 12 start cats and not bred cats bought in stores. Wouldn't that be something even more cute and deserving?!

As to the litter, I have a kitty door so my two go outside. No way would I deal with 12 litter boxes. ( 1 cat = 1 litter box-always!)

These persians are lovely, I have had 4 over the years and only one with a nose like these, my newer ones have all had very flat faces and are much more work because of the cleaning of eyes and nose and they have a lot of trouble eating because they cant pick up food. This lady has got original faced persians I wish I could get these they are gorgeous and in great condition. The fur isn't a factor with these cats, yes you get it everywhere but they are so loving you don't mind and they pat you to get you to pat them. Best cats

Full time cat keeper? If you can afford it...4 to 8 furry feed are enough for my taste.
