Cat Cafe in Seoul - Cuteness Overload!!!

in #travel8 years ago


My fellow crazy cat people of steemit, where you at?? Korea is a cat lovers paradise thanks to the many cat cafes you can find scattered throughout the country.

So "what is a cat cafe?" you may ask... simple: it is a coffee shop that is full of cats. No, you don't bring your own cat. The cats are owned by the owner of the cafe. The owners feed and care for the cats and you get to come and play with them.

In order to enter the cafe, you must purchase a drink. It is basically the entrance fee. Most drinks start at 4,000 won (3.50 USD). So it's not a bad deal. You must take your shoes off and wear indoor slippers that will be provided for you. Then, just pick a seat and wait for a cat to choose you.

Or, if you're like me, follow them around asking them to "love me!!!! Please!!!"

This was the angriest looking cat there. Don't you just want to hug him?

"Puny human...I will destroy you!"

There are rules though! For example, never disturb a sleeping cat.

If there are no more chairs...that's too bad. This is the cats chair. You may sit on the floor.

Any cat person knows that playing with cats can be hit or miss depending on the time of day. We went late at night, it was almost 9PM. They were pretty energetic at that time. But I've gone before during the afternoon...aka nap time...and the cats wouldn't even look at you haha.

If you're a person who enjoys cats, but can't have any of your own just yet...then don't forget to visit a cat cafe while in Korea!

This is the face of pure happiness (the husband wasn't as thrilled lol)

Cats + coffee = my idea of heaven! What a cool place :)

Though it would probably be a bad idea to leave your coffee on the edge of any tables... paw swipe

hahaha, yes...if you do leave your drink on the edge of the table....you're basically asking for it.

Neat post. Love the cats.
