cat cafe mfmf
This cafe is based on the concept of playing with cats, interacting with them, being fluffy, and lazing around.
There are many rescue cats running around happily and you can adopt them if you like them. This cat cafe is recommended for those who want to be comforted by cats or those who are considering raising a cat, and there are many cats on staff, including milk kittens.
However, milk kittens are likely to suddenly deteriorate in condition, so you cannot see them at the cafe, but we are looking for foster parents, so please check with the store staff.
As an additional option, you can have a photo taken with your favorite cat, and the photo fee will go to funds for rescue cat activities.
