What is a cat cafe you ask? Well, it is a place where you can go to hang out, have a coffee and play with adorable little cats! The one we went to also sort of resembled kindergarten class because of all of the little kitten toys and beds scattered around everywhere. These types of cafes are popular in Tokyo because many apartment buildings don't allow pets, so if people are looking to get a cute cat/caffeine fix they can just pop on down to their local cat cafe! This is especially my dream land because cats are my favorite but unfortunately I'm allergic to them, so this way I can have my cake and eat it too! (and surprisingly my allergies didn't even bother me!)
Erin and I are in our glory!
Want to know a random fun fact about the cat cafe? Well, during the plane ride home we were watching the Katy Perry movie on the plane, (haha guilty pleasure!) and during the movie she goes to Tokyo and goes to the exact same cat cafe that we went to! What are the chances of that?!
As soon as we walked in we were greeted by some cute fuzzy new friends! We were really excited to meet them and some where excited to meet us too...
...while others weren't as excited to hang out with us, haha! (Not to worry, no cats were harmed in the taking of this photo.)
Until next time furry friends...

These Japanese people are nuts. Their whole philosophy seems so strange to me. However, that's a clever idea, I could never think of something like this

This is even more ridiculously cute than I imagined. What cuties! Glad you had such a great time xo
ReplyDeleteWow! How fabulous is that! I've never heard of anything like this before. I'm now on the search to see if there is such a place with dogs...or monkeys. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe this cafe exists haha. I love it! I wish they made one with puppies too although... they're a little more reckless that calm kitties.

Oh that is wonderful! We need more places like that! My husband and I checked out a comic book store and were stoked to see two kitties when we walked in. The owners have towers set up and let the cats roam while the store is open. We thought that was the coolest thing!

Yesssss, so glad you got to visit one of these :) What did it cost to get inside, or did you just have to buy a coffee or something?
ReplyDeleteIt was SO awesome! You pay by the hour, it was about $5 for half an hour per person and then you got a free drink!
DeleteWhat a sweet deal :) Love the sign so much!
DeleteThis is the cutest place in the whole world! I wish I wasn't so allergic to cats.

I know right? Stef is very allergic and she was holding cats the whole time and didn't have ANY sort of reaction! Maybe they are magical japanese cats that don't cause allergic reactions!?

This has got to be the best place in the world! Now I wanna go there so badly :)
ReplyDeleteI live in Seoul, S. Korea and I've never gone to the cat cafe due to my allergies~ they MUST be magical Japanese cats!! but we have DOG cafes too! I snuggle with man's best friend frequently in the winter when I need to cheer up...it is strange, but it works!
ReplyDeleteThe cat is so adorable

ReplyDeletei would love to go here! it sounds weird, but there's something really cute about japanese kitties!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info! About to head to Tokyo and would love to know the area (and any other specifics you can provide) where this was?! Big thank you :)
ReplyDeleteI had the exact same moment as you did! I had no idea that the cat cafe I went to was the same as the one Katy Perry went! Isn't that awesome?
ReplyDeleteBtw my blog post is here: http://www.onceoverlightly.com/2013/04/tokyo-3-hapineko-cat-cafe.html ;)
Hello!! I am headed to Tokyo in 2 weeks and I want to know which cat cafe you went to! I am finding it hard to find a good one as some of them just have one cat roaming around.. :) Any info would be greatly appreciated!
