Japanese cat’s blog gets 50,000 hits a day

Filed as News on April 8, 2008 5:39 am

Forget thinking that you’re in the wrong job — I think I’m the wrong creature.

According to reports, stray turned celebrity cat Hatch-chan has his own Japanese blog which has built up a following of some 50,000 every day.

Granted, human intervention by his photographer owners was required to catapult him to stardom, but that’s a pretty impressive statistic for the blog of any life form.

Working the social networks to promote him, his owners now have pretty business-savvy merchandising skills. Hatch-chan tends to do more than your average feline, too, including touring department stores, meeting fans, or recording TV shows.

You knew that the blogosphere was diverse, but this diverse?

    I…don’t even know what to say to that. I know someone whose dog has his own blog, but 50k visitors a day is just insane.
