During the Pandemic a struggling café in Osaka, Japan adopted a stray kitten and ended up becoming a famous place people love to visit. When the kitten’s entire cat family followed to the café, the owners couldn’t turn them away. The cats love roaming on the model trains that are part of the café’s decor. Costumers flock to see the cat family’s Godzilla like antics with the trains. Check out the action with videos from Inside Edition and That Good News Girl, as well as the café’s Instagram account.

Here are our winners:
1st place
Jasmilka Pena
As I gazed into the mirror, my reflection’s eyes blinked out of sync with mine, and a chilling smile spread across its face. I heard a door slam and turned away to a whisper that said, “You have to escape.”
2nd place
Fatoumata Jawara
I always thought my baby sister hated me because she cried every time she looked at me. Until i realized that she was looking behind me.
3rd place
Joel Robinson
After a global pandemic, World War III, Civil War 2, numerous riots, rebellions and society eating itself; I was able to finally close my eyes after a long life and give into death’s embrace.
Three words entered my vision: “Tutorial Stage Complete.”
