Whoever came up with having a coffee and a catch up at a café with a cat should deserve a medal. Well, we know that they originated in Japan in the early 00's as an opportunity for those who didn't have cats to spend time with them, and we agree there's nothing more delightful than enjoying a hot beverage and cuddling a furry feline. Luckily, London has a few options when it comes to enjoying an environment like this and we can tell you first hand, they're the cats' whiskers! 

So if you love kitties, snuggles and coffee (or tea) look no further and read on to discover our London list of cat cafés.
