    When we were in Japan my daughters went to a "Cat Café", never new this existed.

    Apparently we are going to get a first "cat café" in Perth.

    I notice Melbourne already has one of these

    Trying to work out what is the fascination with cat cafes?? Would you like to be surrounded by cats while sipping your coffee?? I find it a little weird.

    I have a cat, but she is totally feral, anyone touch her and they would be ripped apart, yes, sweet kitty really:)

    Anyone been to a cat café??

    I think they have a doggie version in Melbourne.

    I prefer to take my own dog to a pet lovers cafe while the cat stays home.

    If it's those grumpy flat faced ones then I'm there - they're adorable!

    YES!!!

    But then I've got 5 cats & most of them like to sit on me. It's only annoying when I'm trying to work....or type on SS.:D

    There's a university in the UK which has put in a 'puppy room' to help people deal with exam stress.

    What happens with them when they get too big?

    There's a dog café in Haberfield - been there a long time now.

    A 'puppy' room. Any pics?? The mind boggles ;)

    I was delighted that this was opening in Perth. We can't have any pets because my husband is allergic to everything, so I do plan on going and getting some kitty pats in :D

    Of course when I get home I will have to strip off immediately, wash all my clothes I was wearing in hot water and have a shower, but it will be worth it.

    For people who want to pat cats but can't have them full time. I'd do this for dogs if I can't have one.
    There were one stand in Sydney before, according to my friend, because it's temporary there are hundreds lining up and the cats are overstimulated. Maybe better in a proper permanent cafe.
