Cat cafes in Japan

Today I'll talk about why do neko (neko = cat) cafes in Japan are so popular🐈

Neko cafes didn't arised here, it started in Taiwan in 1994. The first one in Japan opened in 2004 in Osaka and from that moment it started the catty invasion in Tokyo :)

In Tokyo a lot of people have a rent apartment and in many apartments they not allow to have pets, including cats. The apartments that allow having pets are pretty expensive.
Some people do have their own house but they are usually very busy with their work and can't take care of a pet or a member of the family is allergic to cat or animals en general so it's impossible to have them at home.
So neko cafe is the place that cat-lovers can enjoy the company of their favorite animal and that are the main reasons why the business works.
