"If you want the best seat in this house, MOVE THE CAT!"

Last weekend, Ben and I read this sign as we washed our hands, preparing to spend time at our last cat cafe, 'Curl Up Cafe,' in Meguro. The cafe was SO cute. I loved how simple the outside looked. The building was made out of brick and there was a bay window with little white curtains in the front. The bay window was filled with kitty things and of course, an actual kitty. I was very impressed with this cafe. The owner and cats were very friendly. And the best part was the old man in the cafe, whose belt buckle had a picture of 2 little orange cats on it. When I asked him if he liked cats he told me that he loved them. A true cat cafegoer!

Welcome!



This 3-month-old kitty really knows how to curl up!

I bet this cat won an award for those blue eyes!

All the cat furniture in this cafe is made out of cardboard. The owner of the cafe showed me a flyer he got from the company who makes it all - so neat!
