You might already know "CIAO CHURU" because it is exported over sea from Japan.

I suspected it could include some kind of "drag" as cats fall crazy when ciao churu is fed. But the maker denied the drag story. They said "we just arrange the ingredients to fit the cats' taste".

Can you find who he is?

The temple officially stated "we have no model for this statue." while local people call him as "Steve Joubutsu(成仏:じょうぶつ;to become like Buddha)".

You can find the link to translated page for this temple here.

Correction: It is not a temple but a kind of "ZEN museum".
