When I was leaving the parking lot of a university, I saw a cat wandering on campus. I stopped my car and tried to take a photo of her, but I couldn’t. As soon as she saw me, she ran into the bushes. As is usual with cats, she watched me from the bushes. I wondered why cats watch people after they run away. I could only see her eyes through the bushes. I hope the Daigaku Neko club will be able to take care of her. There used to be a lot of cats on campus about 10 years ago. Then this club started and found homes for many of the cats.
