Coffee & Cuddles with Local Pets
|
 Why grab your morning coffee at Big Bucks when you could spend your time and money helping local pets? The first of their kind in the country, two new LA outposts let you canoodle with cats and dogs. Reservations are recommended!
The Dog Cafe
At The Dog Cafe, you can order up a latte and then pal around with rescue dogs looking for their forever homes. The ingenious idea is meant to provide a "comfortable and fun space for humans and dogs to hang out with each other away from overcrowded shelters." While helping needy pets find homes, The Dog Cafe is also heaven for people who aren't able to keep a furry friend at home. Reservations are the only way to guarantee entry and can be made online. Fee per person: $10 for 55 minutes. Drinks are sold separately.
Open Wednesday - Sunday, 11 a.m. - 7 p.m.
240 N. Virgil Ave., Los Angeles. Map it.
Crumbs & Whiskers
It's a similar concept at the new Crumbs & Whiskers cafe on Melrose, but here you'll be cuddling with cats up for adoption from Karma Rescue. The reservation fee for 75 minutes is $22-25, with proceeds benefiting local shelters, and you can order up coffee drinks and sweets. But don't be surprised if you go home with a feline in your purse; 134 cats have been adopted to date.
Open daily except Wednesday, 11 a.m. - 7:45 p.m.
7924 Melrose Ave., Los Angeles. Map it.

It can be really painful when cats' whiskers rub against the sides of their food bowls. "Whisker fatigue" is the reason some cats don't always finish their food.
You can fix that problem with Dr. Catsby's Bowl for Whisker Relief! It has a wide-but-shallow shape for easy access, plus bacteria-proof stainless steel and a non-slip mat.

make your cat purr. | |
