To take my cat for a coffee!

(Lighthearted, before any one moans) Since dogs are allowed in coffee shops, i can't see why Cheddar couldn't come along for a latte with me. (Other cat would hate it, but cheddar tells me she would love it!)

I'm all for it.

Does Cheddar like dogs? Because an animal-friendly coffee shop is likely the have a fair few of them…

OoooohMatron · 28/12/2022 11:49

Cheddar looks angry at the mere thought of it!

Sparklesocks · 28/12/2022 11:49

I guess she could have a meowcha ☕️

I am imagining my local pet friendly cafe and the reaction of the dogs that will be there. Handbags would not be enough of a description.

There are two cat cafes in Belgium I have been to, one in Brussels, one in Ghent. Both have rescue cats that are being introduced to humans again after the traumas suffered by them.

And then take her to Tescos . I’ve seen lots of non assistance dogs at Tesco lately

Youngatheart00 · 28/12/2022 11:50

Cheddar looks like such a character, gorgeous

WunWun · 28/12/2022 11:51

Because the cat would probably hate it and you'd look like an attention seeker.

DorisParchment · 28/12/2022 11:51

I think she would enjoy a Catpurrchino.

Alexandernevermind · 28/12/2022 11:52

Ha ha, that face!
We had a couple of cat cafes locally!

Needmorelego · 28/12/2022 11:52

I dunno.... Cheddar looks like she would want to "speak to the manager".

Withholdingvitalinfo · 28/12/2022 11:52

Why should coffee shops be reserved for dogs? They aren’t in charge.

if Cheddar isn’t fazed by dogs and can stand her ground, she should def go. I for one would love to see more cats out & about.

I’m not a big cat fan but Cheddar is adorable 🥰

I must make a return visit to Belgium.

Cheddar is absolutely cute 😍 I'd take my Lilly to a coffee shop too
She'd love it

She's 17 years of age and plays like a kitten

She looks like she would prefer a catpuccino

Cheddar looks how I feel.

(what a beautiful cat btw!)

Prescottdanni123 · 28/12/2022 11:56

Why not? If dogs are allowed, why not cats

I think she's ok with them. She lived with two bonkers setters when she was In the rescue.

I've been to Cat cafes but the cats avoid me!

She's the soppiest, most affectionate cat you could ever meet. She adores people, especially men. And I rarely have visitors so she has no opportunity to flirt!

I'm lead training one of my kittens as he has gotten very attached to my retriever who I do take to coffee shops. Once trained I will take him with us. I can't see why not.

FOJN · 28/12/2022 12:01

Cheddars face is saying "fuck off and leave me alone". I think you'll have to find someone else for your coffee date.
