I've never heard of cat cafes before but I have heard of dog cafes where people can take their OWN dog and the store sells dog treats and toys, among other things. I don't see much wrong with the concept of a cat cafe except that there are a lot of cats who don't get along well with other cats. I can only imagine the caterwauling that must go on when two or more get face to face and start complaining about each other, let alone when they actually break out into a cat-room brawl. They would have to screen the cats very carefully to make sure that each little puss was calm and laid back, not high strung or anti-social. Plus, it would seem that there would necessarily be the stink of litter boxes all over the place, which might decrease your enjoyment of your drink or food. I can't understand even one syllable of Japanese, nor do I read it, but it LOOKS as though the whole purpose of this cat cafe is to eventually adopt out these cats, which to me, is a wonderful thing. If they have ways of dealing with cats not getting along, or offensive odors, then it sounds like a great little place to me. I'd go there just to pet the kitties, forget about food and drink. I'd love to see something like this in my own hometown except that if I went in there my cat would probably accuse me of cheating on her.
