Cat person: A giant digital cat is making people in Tokyo fall in love with it

Shinjuku Cat sits on top of a building in the Shinjuku district of the Japanese city

The giant sits above tree level in the busy Tokyo district.

It peers down as crowds bustle below. A giant, 3D digital cat sitting atop a building in a busy shopping district in Tokyo's Shinjuku distrit. It does the things that we expect from our feline friends, purrs, prowls and licks itself. And it sleeps a lot. 

今日の15時半ごろに現地で撮られた映像です。雑踏が思いのほかうるさいので、声の大きさは調整しなきゃ。再生時、音量注意です！⚠️ pic.twitter.com/8OsmcyyVOo
