小夥伴們！你們猜猜我們現在在哪裡？猜猜我們現在在哪裡？

Well first of all, let me introduce who I'm with

好吧，首先，讓我來介紹一下我是誰？

And we are headed to, the best place in Japan!

而我們要去的地方，是日本最好的地方!

And we're on the boat, we just made the boat

而我們在船上，我們剛剛做了船。

Go watch my vlog videos on my 2nd channel

去我的第二頻道看我的視頻吧。

if you wanna see our whole adventure getting here

如果你想看看我們來這裡的整個經歷

I've wanted to go here for probably 2 years now

I think I first heard about it 2 years ago

我想我是兩年前第一次聽說的。

The weather is perfect, so we are really lucky

哦，我的上帝，我們就快到了！

We're there we're there we're there we're there

我們在那裡，我們在那裡，我們在那裡，我們在那裡。

I'm just picturing the cats to come swarming to us

我只是在想象著貓咪們蜂擁而至的樣子

Let's just come out with handfuls of food

We're here!! Look at this place, it's gorgeous!!

我們到了！看看這個地方，太漂亮了！!

Alright guys, it's time to go find some cats, where are the cats!?

好了，夥計們，該去找幾隻貓了，貓呢！？

他們叫它 "貓島"，是為了引誘我們來這裡的

Tashirojima (Cat Island) is located in the Pacific Ocean

田代島（貓島）位於太平洋上。

Off the coast of Ishinomaki City in Miyagi Prefecture

Tashirojima is inhabited by more cats than humans

Which is where it gets it's nickname of Cat Island

這也是它的綽號 "貓島 "的由來。

There are less than 100 people living on the island

In order to get to Tashirojima you need to take a 1 hour long ferry ride

到田代島需要乘坐1小時的渡輪。

The boat will stop at both of the island's settled areas

船會在島上的兩個定居區停留。

A tiny village near the North, and a more developed village in the South

靠近北方的一個小村子，南方的一個比較發達的村子。

We decided to get off at the stop in the South

We are venturing deeper into the island now

It's the good stuff, it's not the cheap stuff

Ahh they're all coming, they're all coming! OMG

啊，他們都來了，他們都來了!OMG

This place is heaven, I'm never going home

這裡是天堂，我永遠不會回家了。

FUN FACT: Nobody owns a dog on Cat Island

In order to protect the cats it's actually not allowed to bring a dog onto the island at all

為了保護貓咪，其實是完全不允許帶狗上島的

哦，我的上帝，那個灰色的是如此可愛!

But surprisingly they didn't have a very good selection of cat food

但奇怪的是，他們沒有很好的貓糧選擇。

I recommend bringing your own food and snacks for them

我建議你自帶食物和零食給他們吃。

just in case there isn't any you can buy in the store

以防萬一，你在商店裡買不到。

My recommendation would be to bring some cans of wet food

Or some bottles of water and bowls you can give them the water in

或一些瓶裝水和碗，你可以給他們的水英寸

We saw a few people feeding them dry food

我們看到有幾個人在喂他們吃乾糧

But we didn't really see any bowls of water anywhere

但我們真的沒有看到任何一碗水的地方。

So I was kinda worried that the cats were dehydrated

So that would probably be a really good idea

所以這可能是一個非常好的主意

The tsunami is 2011 partially flooded Tashirojima

海嘯是2011年田代島的部分水災。

and both the villages had several buildings that were destroyed

Luckily, the island is located behind a peninsula

幸運的是，這個島位於一個半島的後面。

which helped protect it from more severe damage

這有助於保護它免受更嚴重的損害

Which Chris has been telling us stories about

Tell us the background story Chris, with your best accent!

告訴我們背景故事，克里斯，用你最好的口音！

About 100 years ago, this island had a thriving textiles industry

大約在100年前，這個島上的紡織業非常興旺。

There were load of rats, and they were eating all the textiles

有很多老鼠，它們把所有的紡織品都吃掉了

I can't remember what it was, silk or cotton or something?

我不記得是什麼了，是絲綢還是棉布什麼的？

So they were like, I know what we can do! CATS!

所以他們就說，我知道我們能做什麼了!貓！

貓咪們把所有的老鼠都殺了吃掉了

And they saved the economy of the island!

So to thank the cats, they made a Cat Shrine

所以，為了感謝貓咪，他們做了一個貓咪神龕。

現在我們正在尋找那個神龕... ...
