The Artist Kouhaku Kuroboshi's Dilemma: Why Does My Cat Love Mice and Feather Toys, but Get Scared by a Feather Mouse?

The second season of the anime Gun Gale Online is currently airing, and the renowned Japanese illustrator Kouhaku Kuroboshi, known for his work on the original light novels, has recently become a trending topic online. However, the reason for this newfound attention isn't solely due to his artistic contributions but rather his cat!

Kuroboshi discovered that his cat absolutely loves playing with both mouse and feather cat toys. However, when he combined these two toys into one—creating a feather mouse toy—the reaction from his cat was one of sheer terror! This amusing incident caught the attention of fans and led to discussions across social media platforms.

In a recent illustration shared by Kuroboshi, he humorously depicted his cat's preferences:

  • Mouse toy → "Loves it!"
  • Feather toy → "Loves it!"
  • Feather mouse toy → "Terrifying!"

Kuroboshi expressed his confusion over this unexpected reaction, noting that he thought merging two beloved toys would delight his cat even more. Instead, the cat's response was completely contrary to what he had anticipated.

This peculiar behavior prompted various interpretations from Japanese netizens, including comments such as:

  • "Not everything combined becomes better!"
  • "My cat behaves similarly; I don't know why."
  • "Cats' preferences can be really hard to understand."
  • "A long-feathered mouse is indeed a bit scary..."
  • "Animals, like humans, can be frightened by unusual shapes."
  • "Maybe it's just that 'things larger than their own body are scary'?"
  • "Just like sharks won't attack prey longer than themselves."
  • "Girls → super cute! Dogs → super cute! Girls + dogs..."

This light-hearted incident highlights the unpredictable nature of pets and their quirky preferences, making it a delightful topic of conversation among fans and pet lovers alike.
