To immerse yourself in the cat-filled paradise of Okishima in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, head north towards the Leap of Faith. As you ascend, you'll notice an increasing number of cats. Don't miss the chance to pet them, adding these adorable creatures to your collection for use in your Hideout, especially the rare kittens which are uniquely found here.
