Postcard: もり としのり (Mori Toshinori): たびねこ (Tabi-Neko: Travelling Cat): Fishing Boat

Set sail into a peaceful harbor moment with this postcard illustrated by Toshinori Mori, now available at Wanderlust.

Two fishing boats rest by the breakwater under a wide, salt-kissed sky. Seagulls swoop and perch nearby, echoing the gentle hum of coastal life. Amidst this tranquil scene, two playful cats steal the spotlight—one leaping toward the boat with determined grace, the other sitting proudly on the breakwater like a seasoned sea captain. A third cat naps on a nearby rooftop, basking in the sun, as an island rises faintly in the distance.

This design is a love letter to maritime towns and those fleeting seaside stories—part whimsy, part wanderlust.
