Shonenji Temple was founded in 1606. The story goes that when the temple fell into ruin, a cat kept by the head priest connected with the lord and helped the temple to be restored.
The pine tree in the temple grounds is said to represent a lying down cat.

There was a sign with an illustration of a cat on it.

There were also cat charms.
