| “No, we’re not suggesting you poach your kitty! A clay donabe maybe the perfect vessel for preparing hot pots, but Japanese felines have their own idea: cleverly repurposing this cookware to create the cat equivalent of a four-poster bed. As pet owners across Japan can attest, something about the bowl shape of a donabe makes it irresistible to sleepy kitties. So instead of chucking a cracked or chipped pot, they leave them out for the ole Tiggers in their lives (the pots for cooking stored safely out of feline reach, of course).”

Man: What is this?! Woman: It’s neko nabe (cat pot)! Man: Oooh. Neko Nabe! Narrator: Once very popular,
we’ve prepared a lot of Neko Nabes.
We are attempting a mass neko nabe!
I wonder, if they’ll go into them… Woman: Ready? Start! |
