It's Raining Cats and Dogs
Brentwood (May 2) - -[1]- Brentwood City finally has its very own cat café called Catastrophe and dog café called Hotdogs, both opened by owners Kevin and Ginger Blake. Both cafes opened last month to fanfare and a great deal of press coverage. -[2]- "Business has been booming," says Kevin Blake. "We knew we'd be successful; we just didn't think we'd be this successful." Not only are customers enthusiastically flocking to both cafes to hang out with the animals while drinking coffee and tea, many of them are adopting the animals and giving them forever homes. -[3]- "We thought it would be a good idea to take in some of the animals because of the overcrowding in many of the shelters," explained Ginger Blake. "And customers have a chance to interact with the animals, which is the best form of advertisement for the shelters." Since the cafes' opening, more than 10 dogs and 15 cats have been adopted. "I don't yet own a dog, but I've always wanted one," says Laurie Jordan, a regular customer. "I come here to play with them. Maybe one day I'll find a dog that I really want." -[4]-
Because of the success, the Blakes are considering expanding by purchasing the adjacent shops. "We need more space to fit all our customers and the animals," explained Kevin. "It can get very crowded at times." The Blakes are looking to renovate the dog café next month and the cat café during the fall.
