Looks like things are really going well for tama the tabby cat which was hired as train station chief for Kishi Station. She has now gotten a special summer bonus as reward for excellent work performance.

The bonus consists of a cooling pad and a custom-made mesh hat to replace the heavier stationmaster hat Tama usually wears.
You can see her new hat in the youtube video below, it definitely looks better.

I wonder how long her celebrity status would last.


















>I wonder how long her celebrity status will last.

She looks a bit grumpy. :<
all hail president Tama !
@ Coco the Bean: I’m sure if you are being petted a few hundred times a day and being flashed at by cameras throughout the day, you also would be very grumpy.
@ dood: LOL yeah, she should run for president of the train company
Such a cute cat she is : D
