You can also interact with the cats who actually live!
Around the author in his thirties, I often hear the story that "parents started remodeling." This may be because many people buy their own homes or condominiums at the same time as raising their children, and then review their living environment when their children become independent or when they reach retirement age.
For example, after a child becomes independent, the closest family member is a “pet”. In recent years, the term "companion animal" has become established, and it is said that family awareness of pets is higher than in the past.
Pets become the "spouse" of life
It's a reform to make it easier for families to live, but what can pets do? I visited a showroom to find hints for both owners and pets to live happily.
This time I visited "Pet Plus Aqua City Odaiba" in Odaiba, Tokyo. AHB's collaboration showroom "Cat Plus", which operates Daikyo Remodeling Design and the pet shop "Pet Plus" nationwide, has recently opened in this store.
Collaboration showroom "Cat Plus" with pet remodeling brand "L's PET REFORM"
Daikyo Remodeling Design is a remodeling company of the Daikyo Group that develops and sells Lions condominiums. The company has done a lot of remodeling so far, but it seems that it only reflected the user's request for pets. By fusing AHB's knowledge of pets with living organisms, we will promote ideas and proposals that cannot normally be imagined.
When you enter the showroom, you will be greeted by cats who run around and relax. It is said that the interior is made of flooring that is hard to slip and stains and scratches, and wallpaper that is resistant to scratches, but the appearance is the same as general building materials.

Also on display are examples of construction such as interior tatami mats where cat's claws are hard to get caught, wall storage where pet goods can be stored, and cube boxes. Steps and playset for resolving lack of exercise seem to be taken in without any discomfort regardless of Japanese or Western style.
This tatami mat is caught (reference price: 6 tatami mats from 113,000 yen)
"Cat Cube", a playground for cats who like vertical movement
Wall cat step useful for lack of exercise (Reference price: 5 places from 268,000 yen)
In addition to being exhibited at the same store, the ceiling material "Cleartone 12S" (reference price: 12 tatami mats from 170,000 yen) and "ceiling-embedded nano-e generator" (reference price: 6) are used to control humidity and reduce odors. There are many plans such as 72,000 yen for tatami mats), a door with a door that allows pets to enter and exit freely (reference price: 159,000 yen and up), and a customized wash basin. It seems that you can consider remodeling according to your budget and pet situation. People who are planning to welcome pets may also want to discuss their concerns.
Enforcement case by Daikyo Remodeling Design
By the way, it seems that these cats can also be picked up if there is a child they like (* Check with the staff as some children have already been sold). Why don't you look for an encounter while looking at the relaxed appearance?
After all it is a small place
