A unique London café

The Metro reports that Britain's first cat café is set to open in London after members of the public helped raise £100,000 for the venture on crowd-funding website Indiegogo.



They say that the café, which will be filled with cats looks set to open in the coming months, and that thousands of feline fans are set to battle it out to be the first through the door:

The idea has sparked interest in cat lovers across the country and despite not even advertising, Ms Pears revealed she has received over 700 job applications for less than 10 expected positions.

Pre-sales of tickets to enter the café (it will cost £5 for every visit), have also gone through the roof, with around 3,000 passes being sent out to those ‘crowdfunders’ who helped raise capital for the business.

Australian entrepreneur Lauren Pears told the paper that the idea has sparked interest in cat lovers across the country and despite not even advertising, she has received over 700 job applications for less than 10 expected positions.

They add that pre-sales of tickets to enter the café (it will cost £5 for every visit), have also gone through the roof, with around 3,000 passes being sent out to those ‘crowdfunders’ who helped raise capital for the business. She plans to have around 10 cats in the café, with 40-50 people maximum in the property with the animals at any one time.
