When I read "cat café" my brain showed the image of my feline daughters playing (in a Mc Donald's style playground), while I drank coffee watching them interact with other's "kids"...
When I arrived here I had crossed feelings with the concept as a whole. I was trying to solve the puzzle about the main intention of this place.
Do they want to just help certain aged cats on shelters to find a home?
I've been in a couple of shelters, so I learnt the bitter truth of Toronto: stray cats are plenty, they flood the streets during summer reproducing every few months (with 2-5 creatures per litter...), they are cute, but not adequately for everyone.
Don't assume friends or family will take care of them: "Please don't give away alive presents" (specially during Christmas).
Kids could be mean/rough/bullies with kittens: you won't like a kittens's defence against your baby...
You can dream about dressing-decorating your feline friends, however, each one has it's own will, personality and tolerance against human desires.~
I was expecting a different mechanic because this joint has a lot of potential. I believe in improvement, so I'm sure they took a decisive step towards responsible petting/parenting.
As the crazy cat lady I am, I'll always support whatever that benefits homeless cats.
