For those unfamiliar with the concept, a cat cafe offers the opportunity to grab a beverage and a snack while playing with frisky and friendly felines.

A few ideas come to mind to help prevent animals from contaminating food in these establishments.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Separate food preparation from animals<\/li>\n<li>Provide one area designated for eating and one for interacting with kittens<\/li>\n<li>Serve prepackaged items and beverages that do not require on-site preparation<\/li>\n<li>Have hand-washing sinks or sanitizer stations readily available for guests<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When we talk about separating food preparation areas from animals, we mean that there should be no chance that a cat could have access to prep stations or food. This problem could be solved by having one area for food, and a completely separated space for interaction with cute, fuzzy creatures.<\/p>\n<p>Another solution can simply be to serve bagged items such as chips and snacks as well as beverages in cans, bottles or cups enclosed with lids. This greatly reduces the risk of cat dander or other pet related contaminates from mixing with food.<\/p>\n<p>With this craze in its infancy in the U.S., only time will tell what health risks these attractions pose and what food safety certifications and regulations will have to be followed.
