Tokyo panda promotion

There’s possibly only one thing worse than standing around all day trying to hand out promotional material to people who don’t want it, and that’s standing around all day trying to hand out promotional material to people who don’t want it while wearing a panda suit.

Dogs in Ginza wearing school uniforms and glasses

It’s not in any way unusual for dogs in Japan to be treated like kids, all the way from the wearing of kimonos, to being carted or even carried about.

But arguably all of that pales into insignificance when these two studious looking canines are taken into consideration.

Their meticulously made school uniforms, along with head and eye wear, making them a real marvel.

Ginza cats

What the deal is with these cats I don’t know, but with their fancy fashion and plainly un-feral appearance, it certainly seems like they are well looked after.

Aside, that is, from being left perched on a Ginza road sign where they are photographed and fawned over for hours at a time.

Although to be fair, they didn’t seem unduly concerned, and, in some ways, appeared almost as curious as those taking their pictures.

A mummy?

A mannequin?

Or merely a mannequin masquerading as a mummy?
