Purrfect Cat Cafe-Georgetown, Penang

Cat cafes originated in Taiwan, then quickly became popular in Japan and have spread to Europe and even Dubai! Cafes in California are slated to open this summer. As any cat lover knows, playing with cats can be both fun and therapeutic. These cafes generally take in shelter cats and give them a home in the cafe. They have toys and cubbies galore and the humans who love them can buy a cup of coffee and spend a few minutes or hours with the cats. Just fyi, the food and drink are sold in a separate part of the cafe where cats are not allowed. The ultimate goal is that patrons will adopt the cats and provide them loving, permanent homes. A pop up cat cafe opened in New York City this past April and I along with hundreds of New Yorkers lined up to get a peek. Sadly, I never made it in as the queue was already around the block. So when I heard there was a cat cafe in Georgetown I pounced on it! Lesia enjoyed coffee and passion fruit cheesecake while I played with the kitties.
