Remember Tama the stationmaster cat? The calico cat was appointed stationmaster at the Kishi station in western Japan in 2007 and has been greeting people there ever since, making a name both for herself and local area. She died June 22 of heart failure at age 16  AP article here: http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/A/AS_JAPAN_CAT_FUNERAL?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2015-06-28-09-34-12 Good news is she has been elevated to the status of goddess. The only other cat like this I know of is one in England who rides the bus every day to town. All the drivers and regular passengers knew him. Sadly, he was killed by a hit-and-run in 2010: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1244106/Cat-boarded-bus-day-years-killed-hit-run.html Oh wait, no. That's the other bus-riding moggy. I was thinking of Dodger from Dorset: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ngers-laps.html Alas, Dodger is no longer with us either: http://www.bridportnews.co.uk/news/9545835.Bridport__Dodger_the_cat_is_put_down/ Rest in peace, travel cats. Rest in peace.
