The reporter found out
Yangzhou is now a public welfare cat coffee shop.
In a not-so-big coffee shop, eight furry cute kittens stayed quietly in the house, some sleeping lazily or squinting on the sofa. Recently, a coffee shop named "Cat Shuo" on Pishi Street has become popular, attracting many young people to come to find out.
The reporter learned that in recent years, there are more and more concept theme shops such as "Cat Cafe", which has become a way for urban office workers to relax and reduce stress. Yesterday afternoon, the reporter came to this cat coffee shop and saw that many guests in the house were sitting and tasting coffee while playing with cats. "instead of using cats as a gimmick to make money, the income is mainly for cats' expenses, and favored cats can also be adopted home." Zhang Sheng, the head of the coffee shop, told reporters, "this is a public welfare cat coffee shop."
"I've adopted two cats myself before, but my family doesn't agree. I've been thinking about how to make these cats have a better place to live." Zhang Sheng said, "just before I saw a cat coffee shop out of town, I thought of opening one in Yangzhou. At present, there are 8 civet cats in the shop, with different breeds, the largest 4 months and the smallest 2 months. "
It is reported that the coffee shop has high requirements for cats. "you have to do deworming and vaccination in vivo and in vitro before you can enter."
Public welfare business
Let the cat feed itself.
"many cat coffee shops in other places use cats as a profit tool." "now there are a lot of people who can't take care of their cats because of their family and work," Zhang said. "these cats have nowhere to go. My coffee shop is mainly to give these cats a fixed place to live."
It is reported that the cat coffee shop has only opened for one month with an investment of about 60,000 yuan. "it's not for profit to be a cat coffee shop, adopt cats and let them accompany their guests so that they can support themselves." Zhang Sheng said with a smile, "Last month's turnover was 4000 yuan. Apart from the expenses in the store and the purchase of cat food and cat litter, these little guys have been able to support themselves!"
Let the cat have a fixed place to live, but also let cat lovers relax, many young people like Zhang Sheng's approach. Mr. Chung from Taiwan is a regular customer of the public welfare cat coffee shop: "I often bring my friends to sit down."
"if caring and responsible guests like the cat here, they can also adopt." Introduced by Zhang Sheng.
Be considerate
Cut the cat's toenails regularly.
Zhang Sheng told reporters that he was born and raised in Yangzhou. He was born in 1993 and is still a sophomore. "I went to school in Nanjing and currently majored in animation."
The shop is full of cats, how to ensure hygiene? What if I bite or scratch the guest? Zhang Sheng said that in the store, hand sanitizer and disinfectant are readily available, and guests can wash their hands at any time after playing with cats. "I also prepare some band-aids, cut my cats' toenails regularly, and explain to customers the character and habits of each cat, so as to avoid accidents."
Plan for the future
Create a series of cat-themed stores
In the small coffee shop, Zhang Sheng designed a lot of cats: there are cat cushions, sofas, and even a long swing on which the naughty kitten looks around; on the side of the glass windowsill, a 2-month-old kitten is basking in the sun, and its pink nose and small claws attract many customers.
"the guests who come here are very loving and relaxed. I want to create a sense of home." Although he has only been in business for more than a month, Zhang Sheng is very optimistic about the way this kind of public cat coffee shop is made. "not all businesses need to be commercialized, let alone everything depends on profit to survive."
"this is the model of a small cat coffee shop." Zhang Sheng said that at present, he is planning to develop the next cat-themed store, "or in the form of public welfare, mainly books, as a cat-themed bookstore."
