How to open a cafe for cat lovers

Some Russians treat their four-legged favorites with special trepidation. They are ready to do anything for them. This is what can be taken as the basis of ideas for business. In Russia, there are already hotels for cats, hairdressers, but the cafe has yet to be opened. You may be the first!

In Japan, there are places where visitors can not only eat and drink, but also spend time with their favorites. The leaders of the cafe did not stop there, they gave visitors the opportunity to play with cats of the entertainment establishment. For this, special rooms were equipped that contained houses for furry pets, claws, baskets and other household items.

Customers of such establishments have the opportunity to play with a kitten, stroke it and even treat them to their favorite treat, which, by the way, is also sold in a cafe. Psychologists say that communication with cats has a beneficial effect on the psyche and human health. But opening such a business is fraught with many different problems, because in Russia this niche has not yet been developed.

What do you need to open this business? First, you must register your company with the tax office. To do this, collect the necessary package of documents. Secondly, draw up a business plan, as it will help you follow a clearly defined goal. In the document, try to identify costs, revenues, possible risks and options for solving some problems.

Get all the necessary permissions and licenses. For example, you need permission from Rospotrebnadzor to place a cafe indoors. Get permission from the fire department. If you plan to sell alcohol, get permission for this type of trade.

Rent a room. In order not to have problems with the sanitary and epidemiological station, provide for the presence of two rooms: one for absorbing food, the second for communicating with cats. In the hall where visitors will have lunch, be sure to install a washstand. Think about where you will have sewage, electricity, water supply. All this must be indicated in the technological project.

Remember that pets that belong to the institution must be regularly examined by a veterinarian. Keep order in the cafe, otherwise your company may be fined and even closed.

Get a variety of equipment, both for cooking and for keeping four-legged pets. In your institution there must be purebred and not purebred cats, that is, for every taste and color. Get dishes, tables and sofas. Take on staff waiters, cooks, staff for the care of animals. Design a menu with the chef. Be sure to think over the design of the room, the name. Order a sign and run an advertisement.
