Cat cafes... have a coffee, pet a cat.

I've been informed that places exist in Tokyo for you to have a coffee with a cat...

For those unable to keep their own pets and don't carry around silvervine (またたび - I'm trying to find out where i can buy my own little plant of this stuff...) with them all the time to attract the strays... There are places where you can go have coffee with cats or kittens lounging all over the place. Generally called 'Cat cafes' [猫カフェ] or[猫喫茶 (ねこきっさ)], there are several in and around Tokyo (click the name of the cafe to link to the site):
