TO GO WITH 'Lifestyle-Japan-Animal-Cat' by Miwa Suzuki A cat named 'Jack the Lop Ear' popularised by a television network sits at a fishing port of Tashiro island in Miyagi prefecture, northern Japan on November 1, 2008. The fishing village of Tashiro, known locally as Cat Island, has shunned dogs for centuries in the belief that cats invite a big catch. The island's 100 residents, whose average age is well over 70, are hoping that cats will become a drawcard in a campaign to attract tourists and, hopefully, people who want to settle down here.
