The Island Where Cats Have Completely Taken Over

For felinophiles, the Japanese island of Tashirojima might just be the perfect vacation spot. Located close to the Oshika Peninsula, the tiny Pacific Ocean destination boasts a cat community that's roughly four times the size of its human population.

The cuddly creatures roam free across the island's 1.21 square miles, earning Tashirojima the nickname 'Cat Island' and attracting hordes of tourists wanting to see the strays in the flesh - or rather, fur.
