An army of cats rules the remote Aoshima Island in southern Japan, curling up in abandoned houses or strutting about in a fishing village that is overrun with felines outnumbering humans six to one.
Originally introduced to deal with mice that plagued fishermen's boats, the cats stayed on - and multiplied.
