Sad update everyone, Tama recently passed away… An estimated 3,000 people, including railway officials, attended Tama the cat’s funeral on Sunday, days after she died of heart failure aged 16. [x]
For those who haven’t read articles about it, the local shrine elevated her to a god. She’s now the Eternal Stationmaster and patron god of the station.
Beautiful.
Now I’m crying thanks
and a new cat was hired right?
yep! her name is Nitama (essentially ”second tama” or “tama II”) and she served under Tama as an apprentice before being appointed her deputy
she works very hard
Everytime this crosses my dash, I reblog. It is the law.
Law
I’m crying at 11pm over train cats
Hardworking cat deserves more praise!
Tama being deified was a thing that happened during Noragami’s assembly of the gods.
This post is me acknowelging that some people go onto tumblr to escape the real world and to soothe themselves after stressful experiences, so if they block or ignore social justice and news stories so that their decompression isn’t interrupted with yet more stress, it is not only no one’s business but it makes perfect sense.
@spencerjamesmith SENT ME THIS??? IS THIS THE MANGO THAT WENT MISSING???? WHATS GOING ON
WHY IS THIS IN MELBOURNE WHAT???????
??? HOW DID A GIANT MANGO GET FROM QUEENSLAND TO MELBOURNE?? IT’S LIKE 10 METRES TALL (32 feet) & THE DISTANCE FROM WHERE IT WAS TO HERE IS OVER 1,500 KILOMETRES (930 Miles)
