Manage the first permanent cat cafe in Brooklyn will be Bridge Animal Welfare Coalition, and inside the “restaurant” will settle from 12 to 15 cats, which will be able to play with their potential owners. Despite the fact that the cat cafe does not serve any drinks or dishes, Brooklyn Cat Cafe cooperates with Atlantic Bagels Cafe, which will sacrifice BBAWC 10 percent of profits for each purchase made in the cafe.
In addition, there will be a variety of activities: such as cat yoga, movie evenings and even therapeutic sessions with cats for those who suffered psychological trauma. You will be able to adopt an adult cat for $100, a kitten for $125 and a pair of kittens for $ 175.
The café is open on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays – from 15.00 to 19.00 – and on weekends – from 11.00 to 19.00. Brooklyn Cat Cafe was opened on the success of a similar café in Fort Greene, where for 10 weeks I visited more than four thousand people, and 60 cats have found a home. Remy and Emile are living in a Brooklyn Cat Cafe is supported by volunteers Brooklyn Bridge Animal Welfare Coalition (BBAWC).
Here lives a couple of kittens that can come in to snuggle and chat. Rats will take care of the kittens until they get big enough to leave the nursery (known among staff as “the coffee cage”) and go home to their foster families. These kittens are not predators, when it comes to their best friends rats.
