Friday, a visit to my favourite supah-cheap sh\u014djin-ry\u014dri<\/a> bar-restaurant in Shijo and its in-house friendly feline, triggered a chain of increasingly cat-oriented events on Saturday.<\/p>\n

After taking Aya and Naomi, her friend visiting from Vancouver, to check out on the Philosopher’s Cats<\/a> (and Ginkakuji while we were at it), it was decided that the cat quota for the day had not been reached and I followed two increasingly restless cat-addicts to my first ever Neko Kaf\u00e9<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Actually, the place<\/a> was pleasantly more like somebody’s living room with a lot of cats, than “caf\u00e9”… The little critters were unsurprisingly adorable, and the range was pretty broad: from disgustingly postcard-cute 1-month old kittens, to aging ojiisan cat, with all stripes and shapes in between (Hitler-moustache included<\/a>). <\/p>\n

All in all, a reasonable deal at \u00a5500 an hour, if only for countless memorable pictures of Aya and Naomi, in full crazy-cat-ladies mode, playing and cooing at little purring balls of furs.<\/p>\n
