Cats have been sharing our homes for as long as 9500 years, starting in Egyptian times. Even so, not everyone is fortunate enough to have a lifestyle where they are prepared for cat ownership. You need to be responsible, capable of planning ahead, willing to love, and happy to do an awful lot of cleaning.

Contrary to popular myth, though, you don't have to be okay with sharing your home with a standoffish prissy creature that barely notices whether you're still breathing as long as their food bowl is full. Cats are not all like this stereotype, and one way to ensure you find one who isn't that way is to road-test a few different breeds. Cat cafes are the best places to do this: you can watch and play with all sorts of cats while enjoying a nice bite to eat. Perhaps you want the hyper-playful Japanese Bobtail, the stately and hefty Maine Coon, the highly independent Russian Blue, or the sphinx-like mystery that is the Siamese. Whatever your lifestyle or personality, there's a cat out there who is right for you, and if you take an imaginary trip to the cat cafe with us, we can help you figure out exactly which one he or she is!
