A cat a day keeps the doctor away ...
On the top floor of an old building at the end of a cobbled alley in Kyoto lies the Kokoro Clinic for the Soul. Only a select few - those who feel genuine emotional pain - can find it.
The mysterious centre offers a unique treatment for its troubled patients: it prescribes cats as medication.
