Have been to London Cat Village and Lady Dinah's. What's not to love, nice food & drinks and gorgeous kitties. I have two Bengals at home, but they don;t mind me sharing the love. Well cared for cats and a lovely way to de-stress.
We'd love to go to either, next time we're in London we will do our best to visit both!
