cat island

[edit]

The island is also known for its many cats. Should that be added?--Blaua (talk) 15:34, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Seems somebody added it. But is this the right island? I think it might have been confused with Aoshima, Ehime. I think the articles about "cat island" mention Ehime, and I didn't find any evidence for cats on Aoshima, Miyzaki (yet). Irrogalp (talk) 19:34, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You are Right, the cat's Aoshima is in the Ehime Prefrecture. Just look at the satellite pictures of this one. Also Use this as reference. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/picturegalleries/howaboutthat/11446544/Cat-island-Moggies-outnumber-humans-on-Aoshima-Island-in-Japan-in-pictures.html for reference the other one is located here https://www.google.com/maps/place/33%C2%B044%2700.0%22N+132%C2%B029%2700.0%22E/@33.7355932,132.4849879,17z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x0?hl=en Danmarce (talk) 22:04, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Also, you can find the reference to the Aoshima in Ehime in the Japanese wiki, here "猫の島" (Cat's Island) https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E9%9D%92%E5%B3%B6_%28%E6%84%9B%E5%AA%9B%E7%9C%8C%29#.E7.8C.AB.E3.81.AE.E5.B3.B6 Danmarce (talk) 22:09, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
