Koneko
Koneko ("kitten" in Japanese) is a cat cafe located on the Lower East Side of Manhattan.[1] The cafe's format is based on Japanese cat cafes.[2] Koneko is partnered with Anjellicle Cats Rescue, a non-profit rescue organization based in New York City that specializes in pulling cats from the city's euthanasia shelters.[3] All of the cats at Koneko are adoptable.[4]
Koneko was founded by Benjamin Kalb, a chef who worked previously at Bouley and Momofuku Noodle Bar.[5]
