With the rapid development of society, people are under increasing pressure and need to get proper decompression in their spare time. As a docile, lovely and proud pet, cats can be used as spiritual sustenance to soothe people's hearts. Many businesses have discovered this and smelled business opportunities very sensitively. Therefore, there have been many cat-themed life houses, and all kinds of goods with cats as carriers have emerged one after another. However, these cats are used as propaganda means.

A cat-themed coffee shop called Cat Bar is emerging in Chongqing and other places. Cat Bar originated in Japan, and then spread to the mainland from Taiwan Province Province. Because the cat's slow temper and the atmosphere of the drink shop cooperate well, a theme culture has gradually formed. In a cat bar called LunaSea Meow Sauce Teahouse in Chongqing, you can see a few lazy Scottish folded-eared cats wagging their tails as soon as you open the door. Customers can order a cup of tea, read books and play with lively and clever cats. This theme coffee shop is different from the traditional coffee shop that occupies downtown areas, and most of them are hidden in office buildings. Relying on regular business and low rent, some well-run cat bars earn tens of thousands of yuan a month.

The clerk said, "The cat itself is a docile and clingy animal. The cats in the shop are very clean. Every day, the staff will take them to take a bath, and the cats in these stores have been vaccinated, which will basically not affect the safety and hygiene of customers. " There is also a "cat man" home in the store, with cat jumping platform, sofa cushion ... entertainment and rest facilities. "Here, people and cats can live in harmony and set each other off." The clerk said, "almost every day, guests come to the cat to play or take pictures." Cute cats don't refuse to sell cute, and they are often caught by cute gestures. " ?

In addition, Zou Pu, a student studying environmental art in Chongqing Vocational and Technical College of Industry and Commerce, also found business opportunities from cats. He is a young man under 24 years old. He creatively painted cats on pebbles and found his own way to start a business. These cats painted with pebbles as "canvases" only show their heads or stretch, and each cat is designed according to the shape of pebbles, which is lifelike.

"At that time, I posted this work in Baidu Post Bar. I didn't expect someone to ask privately whether to sell it soon. " Zou Pukai's Taobao shop only customizes stone cats. More than 60 stone cats were sold in the first month, and the popularity of the online shop "Buduoduo Stone Cat" is getting higher and higher. Now, Zoupu's Taobao shop "Buduoduo Stone Cat" has been in business for two months, and has received orders exceeding 100, and the price of each work ranges from 200 to 900 yuan.

So, are these business practices really popular? Take the cat restaurant as an example, people generally have different views.

For example, cats are cute.

Cai and Mai, students studying in Lingnan Normal University, said that they came to the cat theme leisure hall specially because they like cats. They say cats are smart animals, and this kind of cat theme pavilion is very good. It is especially good to see lovely cats around, which meets their dual needs of enjoying food and playing with pets.

Dong, a student at Cunjin College of Guangdong Ocean University, believes that cats are quiet animals and will not run around and harass guests for no reason. The sanitation of such a cat theme pavilion can still be guaranteed. "Sometimes you have to wait for someone to eat. If you can Doby cats in the restaurant, time will pass quickly and you will feel tired all day. " Some customers said that they like cats very much, but they can't keep cats at home. They can go to a small restaurant to play with cats, which can be regarded as satisfying their little wishes. Mr. Dong, who lives in Cunjin Community, believes that the combination of cats and cafes is a way to stimulate consumption. Cats are very popular pets, and there are many cat lovers. The cat theme pavilion meets the needs of these people, and it can also attract the attention of many consumers, so as to go to the store for consumption. ?

Objection: cats are unsanitary.

"The cat is cute, but it may not be suitable for the restaurant." In the random survey, although there are many fans of cats, there are also many centrists and even "opponents". Miss Xu, who works in a bank in Chikan, said, "Cats are very proud animals. You put the cat in the restaurant to receive guests like a clerk and let the cat play with you. Have you considered the cat's feelings? If you annoy the cat, it may hurt people! "

Are cats in restaurants hygienic? Many cities have regulations that cats in restaurants do not meet the hygiene standards. Ms. Ding said: "I went to a restaurant to eat, and I heard a meow without eating two bites. I looked down and saw a yellow cat rubbing against my foot. Later, the waiter of the restaurant came to say hello to the flower cat. " Ms. Ding said that the black fish fillets just served by the waitress went to tease the cat without washing their hands, and the animals all carried germs. How can this be hygienic? Although the environmental sanitation of the restaurant looks neat, at the thought of a cat "swaggering" in the restaurant, Ms. Ding suddenly lost her appetite and rushed to pay the bill.

Another Ms. Qiu said that she would not choose those restaurants for consumption: "Those small shops are generally opened by petty bourgeoisie young people and may not know about food." Although she doesn't think she hates cats, for restaurants with cats, "animals will shed their hair and they may steal food." In addition, the excrement should be cleaned up. Even if you take good care of it, it is still not as clean as those shops that don't keep pets. "
