7. Take us to a local spot in your city and show us what we’re missing…you’ll be saving us thousands of dollars now that we won’t need to take that trip!
Recently I discovered a cat cafe in Seattle and decided I needed to cross it off my bucket list. Well first, when I saw it, I added it to my bucket list and then within 24 hours I was crossing it off.
Neko’s Cat Cafe can be found in downtown Seattle amid the hustle bustle of city life. They serve everything from coffee and cookies to beer and wine, and you can enjoy your goodies in the dining area OR you can pay an extra 10 bucks to sit in a room filled with cats. You actually need to make a reservation if you want to be sure there is space for you to be with the cats.
I made reservations for me and the kids one Sunday and we filled up on all the furry love we could ask for. Was it worth $40+ to eat cookies in a room with cats? I mean…not…exactly, BUT it’s for a good cause. All of the cats in the room are adoptable and have kitty leukemia. They cannot be outdoor cats because they could easily transmit the disease to healthy cats. So adopters must commit to keeping them indoor and away from healthy cats. I know these cats are a little more difficult to find homes for so I think the cat cafe is providing a really lovely experience for them as opposed to being stuffed in cages.
The owners of this cafe really thought of everything. The walls were lined with shelving and tracking for the cats to hop up to. There were plenty of hiding spots, baskets, and cardboard boxes for them to stuff themselves into. The tables were in the shape of cats heads, there were board games galore, and even a little kitty door for them to crawl through if they were not interested in the room with all of us humans.
It really is an adorable cafe, a little spendy if you’re taking your family, but not too bad for a fun date night or an afternoon out with a friend.
I shared this video on Instagram:
So now you’ve been to Neko’s Cat Cafe and you do not need to hop on a plane to Seattle in order explore that particular destination! You’re welcome!!
However, if you find yourself IN Seattle and are looking for something unique to do. I definitely recommend popping over to Neko’s Cat Cafe! :)
