The first time I walked into the International Market Place in Waikiki this year,
I stumbled upon Kitty Heaven.

There was a new business on the second level of the IMP: Cat Café MOFF.
I had never heard of such a thing before, and I was delighted!

I dearly love cats, but Terry doesn't like them.
Of course, cats love him and run to him purring!
Here was a place I could spend some quality time with kitties.
$23.00 for 30 Minutes
and a Drink!
What a Deal!

I ran to tell Terry the awesome news.
"23 bucks to sit with a bunch of cats?
Just watch them through the window!" he said.
"That includes a drink," I offered.
"You could have a nice mai tai at the Hideout for much cheaper than that!
This is what I call "bait and switch" from Terry.
He tries to distract me from one thing by dangling another.
The Hideout is my favorite bar and restaurant in Honolulu.

Terry surveyed his pickleball friends.
Many of his pickleball friends' wives and other players
had looked at the cats through the window.
Only one wife had visited the cats inside the café.
Terry rested his case. "Save the money and look through the window."

As you probably have figured out, Terry lost that go round!
I really love kitties. I had several beautiful cats when I was growing up.
You could get the cats' favorite treat for $5.00.
What do you think: Did I spend that $5.00?
The cats knew that lots of guests bought treats, and they swarmed any with treats.
Yes, please!!!

Thirty minutes goes so fast! I loved every second!
I was so engrossed that I forgot to have someone take a photo of me with the kitties.
I'll fix that next year!
And the one I'd take home?
Little Laki, the Scottish Fold cat.
She looks remarkably like my favorite kitty
in a cat puzzle I completed before the Pandemic.
Actually, I'd take any of them home!
I don't apologize for having so many photos.
As I said earlier in the post, I dearly love kitties!
I'm linking to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date, Nicole's Friday Face Off,
and Tom's Aloha Friday.
I had so much fun in Hawaii!
Hawaii '21 and '22 were challenging. I was so sick because of my thyroid.
This time I had lots of fun doing the things I love with the friends I love!
