Season 11 Episode 24 - At the Pet Cemetery Where Animals Rest in Peace
The setting is a pet cemetery in Fuchu City, Tokyo, which has been in operation since the Taisho era. It has graves and columbariums for pets such as dogs and cats, and former owners visit daily to pay their respects. A woman who says her beloved dog helped bring her family closer together. A man who visits every weekend to pay respects to his guinea pig, which helped ease his loneliness. Funerals are also held at the cemetery, and some owners attend the cremation. As pets become increasingly integrated into families, what are the thoughts of those who visit here? Over three days, we listen to their voices.
