Coo&Riku Cat Café

ペットショップCoo&RIKU
I`m a huge huge cat lover and friend and when I was in Japan last Summer I`ve visited a small cat café at pet shop Coo & RIKU. I also know that Japan is cat loving country. Think Hello Kitty and the `Maneki-neko/招き猫` (Good Luck Cat) with her moving paw, I`m 100% sure I will find happy, beautiful and playful cats in Japan.
But also dogs as well!
After a quick research on the www I`ve learned that Coo & RIKU is a chain pet shop in Japan. They only sell dogs and cats and as customers or just merely visiting the shop you can see and pet them at the shops. There`s also a barber shop and a cat café where you can relax, read books while being amongst the cats!
I have to admit that the pet shop smelled like animals and cat food.
Cat Café
15 min in heaven
The time that you want to spend in their cat café is up to you. You can choose 1 hour stay, 30 min or 15 min. With the stated fees of course. I wasn`t able to stay any longer than 15 min because I had a dinner meeting with my family but I thought the service was cute though. Just like the timer that they gave me.
Some house rules like taking your shoes off and use slippers. Just like at our home.
Meet the cats
And they are sooooo cute!! Not only the ordinary tabby house cats are there but also those cats that are IG worthy ones. Ugh the 15 min short was just too short.
A friendly cat lady here.
The cat café was relatively small but cozy with lots of wood interior. There are lots of books and manga`s available too and you can also drink tea and buy snacks for the cats as well.

DIY: customize a mug
So for my best friends birthday, one of the gifts I got her
are these mugs with my own doodles on it. I always
make a personal gift for someones birthday. This year I
decided to create this super easy DIY. All you need
is an ovenproof mug, markers and some creativity.
Bake it in the oven for 30 mins 175°C when you are done.
Don't wash the mugs in the dishwasher as it will wash the
markers away!
And what I like about this DIY is that you don't need to have super talent for it, kiddish/cartoonish style are totally acceptable and it creates a real fun, quirky look!
This year is also a special year because me and my bestie are buddies for over 10 years ^_^
You can use a pencil for extra guidelines. But if you messed up, don't panic. All you need is a scourer to rub it off.
She likes goldfishes so I drew some for her!

The Forbidden City & Peking Duck
EN
Summer 2018 was full on exploring Asia. Now whole Asia of course but I went to Japan and China for the very first time of my life. I've experienced heatwaves and I don't mind tropical temperatures at all but some were just to hot and steamy for me even.
I've also explored and walked so much in China. Everyday was pretty much a workout especially with the topnotch temperatures and hill hiking. I've had delicious cheap Chinese food and it's not the typical Chinatown version.
I almost had the one and only delicacy Peking Duck because it looked so so so good but I restrained and kept true to my vegetarian heart.
One of the things I want to do in China was to see The Forbidden City. I grew up with C-drama (還珠格格 anyone?) and movies and The Forbidden City and all the historical events that took place has fascinated me ever since.
I don't know why but somehow visiting this palace completes me being a Chinese. A proud one!

Old Dutch Delft, hallo!
EN
When you have to name a city from The Netherlands you'd probably come up with Amsterdam which is quite the obvious. Or perhaps Rotterdam. Or Delft for the real geographic go getter.
Delft lies north of Rotterdam and it's a city of art and a big chance you've heard or seen of Delfts art.
How about the 'Girl With the Pearl Earring?' Yep, it was made by a Delftenaar and painter J. Vermeer.
We have Delfts blue pottery and tiles. There's cheese.
There was also rain when I was in Delft with my colleague friend Sanneke. But it was also my first time in Delft and I was excited! We saw a lot of art related stuff in Old Dutch style. We ate at Kek (blogpost here) and we did a boattrip.
Scroll down to see our Delft adventure.

Als je een Nederlandse stad moet opnoemen, welke zou dat zijn? Amsterdam? Dat kan. Of Rotterdam. Maar wat dacht je van Delft?
Delft ken je vast ook wel!
Ik ben er nog nooit geweest wel rijd ik er vaak langs met de trein. Delft ken ik natuurlijk van Del…

They're adorable - what a lovely way to spend 15 minutes of your time
ReplyDeleteYessss! A sweet treat for every cat loving person ^____^ Xx
DeleteI don't know if I'd want to eat in a place that smells too heavily of animals and animal food, but I'd totally go just to see the cats and dogs, and not eat! So many cutiessss. -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey's
ReplyDeleteYeah true, luckily the cat café area is closed off from the shop so I didn't smell to much of the animal smell :P Xx
