Owl Cafes Are Officially a Terrifying, Awesome Thing
Move over, kitties.
Tokyo, Paris, Madrid, Vienna, London, San Francisco. If you’ve spent some time on the Internet, you should spot what these metros have in a common: cat cafes. These are establishments where felines and humans can mingle with cozy cups of tea, for a fee. They are a bit of a regulatory nightmare. They are also old news.
Now, all of Tokyo’s cool kids (let’s be real: mostly tourists) are headed to the city’s owl cafes.
