KYOKO HAMADA HAS THE BEST WAY OF LOOKING AT ANIMALS
Seen here is Kyoko in the navy dress and in the stripe shirt is her sister. The orange cat's name was Ichibei who was their main cat growing up, best cat ever...
Gizmo is seen in the last picture and when Kyoko took his picture he knew exactly where to be. As she says about animals, "I think I have a healthy relationship with animals in general. When I grew up in Japan, we had tadpoles, crayfish, koi fish, a pet hamster with one arm, pet squirrels (different than American squirrels), turtles, cats and a dog. My view of animals changed slightly though when I saw wild lions in South Africa up close. I knew instinctively this big orange cat can take me down with one swipe. It gave me much more respect for the wilderness."
