KITI — about

KITI was incorporated on January 1, 2021. Before then I was making houses for stray cats in Japan, a city called Atami, next to the ocean. There are a lot of stray cats there.

People take care of them by giving them food, but they don't have cosy houses like people do... so I made the first KITI house with the help of my neighbour (he gave me some spare wood from his house construction and showed me how to use tools) and put it in the garden of the building where I live.

Then I met more stray cats and made each one a house. Each house has a special theme and a name. I talked with people who live nearby and they accepted the house and take care of the cats.

Small animals have meaning for life.

KITI is about helping small animals who need houses & food.
