The newest addition to Charleston's dining scene is purr-fect. Cups & Cats Cafe is a new downtown coffee shop - with cats. Let me explain. You walk into the coffee shop area, which has a number of drink options, plus some snacks. That includes these cute little charcuterie-to-go boxes from Saving Thyme. I went with a simple hot chocolate. So if you want to enjoy just a drink or snack, you can stay put on the cafe side. However, for $10, you can go to the space next door and play with kitties for an hour. You can take your drink inside if it has a lid. There are tons of toys and stuff to play with the cats. But you need to respect their boundaries and not pick them up if they don't want to be, etc. So, I took my hot chocolate inside and watch as the kittens played and other cats laid in the sun. Honestly, it was just a super chill vibe to relax with the cats, a drink and enjoy the passersby outside. I did momentarily fall in love with this little gray kitten, but I saw he was adopted a few days later. I love the concept that these kitties then can find new homes. Have you been? Grade: A
