During this time of year, many Japanese people have looked forward to hanami parties (“flower-watching” parties) all year long, where they gather with friends and family to have picnics under the freshly bloomed flowers.
▼ Cats were by far the most shared type of “hanami,” due to their pink noses resembling pink cherry blossoms.
▼ Micropigs from the micropig cafe in Tokyo have some pretty “hanami” noses too!
If you want to join in on the “hanami” yourself, feel free to tweet your own pets’ noses using the #お鼻見 hashtag on Twitter.
The nose-viewing parties might be done out of necessity at the moment, but with new Japanese apartments specifically designed for cat-lovers taking off, “nose-viewing parties” might become a fun tradition in the future too.
