We found my favorite pub in the entire world. Yes, we’ve been to cat cafes around the world – oh, we’ve seen some things.

A cat cafe in Thailand with color matched cats. A resort in Malaysia with dozens of well behaved rescued cats who happily lounged at the pool, in your room, and under the tables at the restaurant. A San Francisco cat cafe where you could adopt the cats. We’ve discussed the absence of cat bars and what you could call one. Suds and Siamese. Pints and Pussies. Ale and Alley Cats.

But here in Bristol we visited The Bag of Nails. Going forward always referred to as Kitty Heaven. Cats for me, beers for him. Kitties on the bar, kitties on your lap, at one point eight cats were visible in this not large pub. Oh, did I not mention that my wonderful travel guy is allergic to cats?

Cat cafes tend to be very controlled environments. More so in California due to health regulations. Here at Kitty Heaven the list of amusing but serious rules includes one definitely aimed at me “no squealing.”.

We only stayed for one pint, but what a happy pint it was.



Vinyl on the sound system. Beer in hand. Cat on lap. Heaven.



If you’re a cat lover and in Bristol, it’s a great place to visit. Review the rules first and do not squeal.
There’s a cat park in Lima.
Oh love that park – Kennedy park I think it’s called? And many of those kitties are pet able too.
Did you see rule #8? Babies and toddlers must be stored in the cellar????
So funny! And the round glass bits on the floor let you see into the cellar… so maybe it’s true…?
Definitely would have been thrown out for breaking the no squealing rule too many times!
The cats were all so chill. I had to try really hard to match their chill level…
