Some street photographers love capturing the small heartfelt or funny moments of human life. Tokyo based photographer Masayuki Oki does just that - only his subjects are cats! Armed with his camera, Masayuki follows the footsteps of stray cats, and the snapshots he comes out with are adorable, funny, strange, or a combination of them all. In the photos below you can see Tokyo’s streetwise felines fighting, embracing each other, relaxing, and goofing around - not that different from what we humans would do. Take a look at the heart-melting stray cats from the land of the rising sun.

To see more of Masayuki's work, check out his Instagram page.
