Nice idea - but -

What stops the cats from wandering out into busy, traffic ridden streets?

Who cares for them when the cafes are closed?

Lovely idea, but , I think I read that they're having problems with hygiene regulations. Wouldn't worry me though, the more cats the better.
Anyone who loves them can always volunteer at cat rescue centres to socialise kittens!

Re: Moggie munchies

You can thank a Russian chap called Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov who in 1912 was on holiday in Austria. He was probably better known as Lenin, and he was more in exile than on holiday.

While in exile, the revolutionary enjoyed visiting a certain revolutionary café. It wasn’t full of Bolsheviks or political dissidents – we mean the other kind of revolutionary. It was full of cats. Actual cats. It was the world’s first cat café – a coffee shop with a posse of pussies.

Rumour has it that, with the outbreak of the First World War, the owner donated his resident cats to the war effort. Stop imagining cats with uniforms and guns; their fur was used to line soldiers’ boots. We like to think that’s not true, but – with or without Puss in Boots – the café closed when the war broke out.
