B Cat Cafe in Phuket Town is one example, letting guests relax with 15–17 resident cats while having drinks and cake near the old town streets.

B Cat Cafe Phuket is a fun place where every cat lover can sit and play with 15 to 17 furry and fluffy felines while enjoying a cake and a drink. The location on Thepkasattri Road, just next to the old historical street of Phuket Town, makes it very convenient.
