Sushi lover, suspected Sebugeki enthusiast, lover of all things zen, Brian shares his life with his Japanese wife and their feline friends: Yuzu and Ponzu - his black polydactal cat. With the passing of longtime fellow feline friend JJkun (18 years) , Ponzu has taken up the mantle of inspecting all crinkly fortune papers to be batted around with his big paws! Yuzu is cute, but she is really an Oni Hime in disguise...
