Some of the landlords in the apartment don't like cats. It seems that the room will be damaged. But this situation may change in the future.

The rental housing "Seilan Apartment" for cat owners will open in Yokohama on March 19th. It is an apartment house supervised by "Gatos Apartment", a designer rental for cats in Suginami, Tokyo, and it is a condition to move in, such as keeping a cat.

"Seilan Apartment" is a rental housing full of mechanisms for cats and people to live comfortably. A catwalk will be set up so that cats can move in three dimensions, and there will be a storage space for cat litter boxes.

A loft will be installed in the room on the second floor. Not only will this be convenient for the owner, but it will also be a nice space for the cat. A private pouch is attached to the room on the first floor. The porch is equipped with a fence about 2 meters high, which is designed to prevent cats from easily escaping to the outside.

There is also a loft in each room on the 2nd floor (Note: The image is under construction and may differ from the state at the time of completion)

Residents are limited to those who currently have cats or those who have cats after moving in. There are also plans for exchange meetings between owners, and it seems that they aim to create an environment where it is easy to ask neighbors to take care of cats, for example, when they have to open a room on a trip.
