A nice contrast to the sleepy atmosphere of your typical cat cafe, Miacis was positively frenetic with activity during our evening visit, with cats running amok and chasing one another across the length of the spacious playroom. When we entered we were asked to tread carefully as there might be kittens underfoot, and we counted at least five kittens among the resident population of twenty, all of them quite frisky.

One of the most popular furnishings is a nylon-clad Y-shaped tunnel structure which cats enjoy alternately crawling through and pouncing on after running the length of the room. Perhaps because of all this vigorous activity, the cats here seem friendlier and more outgoing than average, some of them spontaneously approaching visitors rather than waiting passively.
