PURR Cat Cafe in Brighton Has Opened

by Marc Hurwitz

After a long and at-times wild ride, Boston's very first cat cafe has become reality.

According to a Facebook post from the place, PURR Cat Cafe in Brighton is now open, with the note saying that the Inspectional Services Department has confirmed that the place has the proper licensing to open and that it has four cats onsite at this point in time. A reservations page for PURR shows that the price of admission is $15 for one hour, though it is not known exactly what is included for the fee.

More information will likely be coming, but for now, Boston is officially home to a cafe cafe.

The address for PURR is 167 Chestnut Hill Avenue, Brighton, MA, 02135. Its website can be found at https://www.purrcatcafe.com/>
