It was my first time here and I went with a friend! Let me just first start off by saying, I love all animals. I don't care what it looks like or what it is, I love it all.
I didn't know much about the history and story behind this place other than the fact that it's one of the only (or only?) pet Cafe in Toronto. More specifically, it's a cat cafe! Sorry, I don't know what Tot means and I didn't ask. I'll ask next time!
I went here with a friend and you have to order a drink in order to be placed in line to enter the room with cats. Most of the drinks are hot drinks. However, they do have cold sodas and juices as well. Both my friend and I both ordered the black cat mocha (one with whipped cream and one without. Although I only have a picture of the one without whipped cream because I started drinking mine before I took a picture hehe). They also have cheesecake and cookies and yogurt(?) but we didn't get any of those. We only got drinks this time. The drinks are also a little bit pricey! Around starbucks-ish prices? But it's okay because you also get to play with cats.
The drink itself is delicious! It was really good (both with and without whipped cream). The cats were super adorable and fun to play with. I just wish they let us stay in there for a bit longer.
I also heard that these cats are being saved from the humane society because according to law, the cats need to be placed in cages overnight at the humane society and I think this is the first place that overrides that law so that they don't need to be placed in cages? I'm not sure if that's completely correct since I heard the owner talk about this to someone else (the owner and everyone there we saw are super nice and friendly! Sorry... Forgot everyone's name. I'm not good with names). At Tot, they also put the cats up for adoption to the general public (they get a lot of applications for cat adoption!).
