In Japan, the child birth rate is dropping so much over this decade and this has been such a big social issue because there are not enough young people to support ever growing number of elderly people in Japan. I don't know what causes this but I know a lot of people adore their pet's like their own children in Japan...maybe this is why?? Pets are better than kids! lol!! I am just joking!! Well, as a response to this trend, some major house builders are coming up with a houses that have pets in mind!! For example, Asahi Kasei, one of the leading house builder in Japan came up with this house called Plus-Nyan house. This is a dream house for every cat owner and their cats!! They researched what cat owner wants and reflect that into this beautiful house!! I know it is in Japanese so I will explain few key features of this ultimate kitteh house!!
Cat walk beams that built in open air space.
Cat steps that goes up to the cat walk.
Cat house under the bathroom sink.
Cat door in every door in the house!
Cat deck built in to the window.
Extra space for a litter box in the bathroom.
Extra cat room hidden under the stairs.
Special fences around the house to prevent cats from escaping.
Another example of special fences around the house to prevent cats from escaping.
The use of pet friendly construction materials. This particular wall is kitteh scratch free.











Can't get enough of cat houses in Japan?

Wow! That is really something! Must need a lot of green papers to get a house like that!
Thank you for posting about this wonderful house. I can see myself residing very happily in such a home.
We'll have a house like this, someday. You and Goma will be ours guests. Cheers from Brazil! =D
Lovely!! I move in NOW! -- Bhu
#1 is not too sure whether the appropriate reaction to this is "sugoi" or "sasuga"!?
Anyway, she was quite excited when she noticed that the litter box shown in one of the photos is the same as mine!
Sen-Chan (by the way, my full name is Sengikumaru...)
i want a house like that too!!
This house is amazing! Cat and kitty heaven! My cats would love a house like this.
Wow!!! I want a house for hamsters!
Muahahaha ='·'=
This is incredible. Definitely awesome and inspiring :)
That is an awesome house. It's so beautiful, yet very functional
Thanks for sharing this remarkable dwelling!
Pretty neat. But a Disney land prison is still a prison. Attica! Attica! ;']
Or we could stop making animals fit into our needs and just open a door and let them out. If you can't don't have one.
Having a bad day anonymous?
This is great! And indoor only cats live so much longer than cats who are allowed to roam freely outside.
Longer, and arguably just as happy (depending on if you have enough critters in the house --bugs and mice in mine unfortunately...thanks to it's age-- to keep them entertained)...do you also believe plants should be kept outside? Or that perhaps machinery/furniture has no place inside because we shouldn't mold building materials to our needs?
this house is AMAZING! I'm totally jealous! I have to make sure my cat doesn't see this or I'll never hear the end of it!
Where can I get a arciteck to design a house for my 40 kitties?I love it,I wish I could afford a house for my kitties.
If it's such a great house for cats, how come they have to prevent them from escaping? Huh? Huh? How come?
Though my cat wants to sign up. Send details asap!
Thanks for posting about this house. I love it and my 16 cats would love it to. Thanks for translating, I would have never understood the Japanese website.
Thanks again!
I loved it. I place this page as a link under "Fun, Quirky Ideas" in my blog, is it ok? If not, please email me (mylifenotes.net@gmail.com) and I will take it down. I hope you will let me keep the link, it is really nice.
Amazing! I really feel like I'm neglecting my cats now.
Wow! Unbelievable luxury. I want to be cat.
Wow! I am getting jealous to these cats.
wait, is this house REAL? i want to visit it!! :D
do you know where it is, if it's an actual place?
That is such a cool idea, having a place where you furry friends can feel just as at home and comfortable as you.
Make me wish I was a cat with my love of building forts ;)
Estas ideas para los mimados de la casa son sensacionales.
