"ove your neighborhood coffee joint but feel a lack of feline energy? Check out Japan's cat cafés, where cat lovers can pay to play with furry felines all while enjoying a relaxing beverage or snack.
The concept began in Taiwan in 1998, but has found a special foothold in Japan, where more than 150 cat cafés have opened in the last ten years. While it might seem like a gimmicky fad, the cafés actually attract a large number of tourists and locals alike. In Japanese cities, many residents lack the space or time to care for their own cats, and the cat cafés offer animal interaction for a minimal investment.
Cats are Indies.....maybe I might come over to see, maybe I might not....let me flip a coin....had
cats all of my life...some were like dogs,came when you called, wanted to be your bestest friend
some others....not so much,"let me get back to you later"...... :BroadGrin: seems like a good
way for both species to get what they want..... :BroadGrin:
BB, the article I read said that the cats would come from local shelters after being verified in good health, socialized, and able to get along with other cats.
