麥克Mike週:極簡行,to Minimal cafe

First of all, today is BOY's 14 years old birthday, let's go to his Birthday party~!!!!!
若有人不知道為何本月10~17號為何有Mike玩偶在圖片中,請參考本部落格右上角說明~! Learn more things about MIKE in here
小芥:昨晚,帶著麥克去極簡咖啡(要看之前寫過的極簡文章到這),在瘋狂跑台北之後,來到這個令人沉澱的美麗貓咪咖啡店~!
Michico : Last night, I brought Mike to Minimal Cafe(you can see here to see last Minimal Cafe post), after a Big trip yesterday, today I let Mike come to a relax atmosphere with fall of Cats.

小芥:極簡咖啡是我最喜歡的貓咪咖啡店。她有著跟其他貓咪咖啡店不同的氛圍,幽暗的燈光讓貓咪感受到平靜以及舒服。深沉的顏色一進去也會跟著穩定下來。我喜歡去任何一家貓咪的店,但是也唯有極簡讓我流連忘返。老闆娘也同時照顧了很多師大夜市附近的街貓,十分辛苦。也有很多人會把棄養的貓連籠子放在店門口請求收留。極簡的貓咪人口眾多,不過貓都有她們自己的生活方式,老闆娘也盡期所能的仔細照顧。

一個人的力量有限,加上員工還有配合的醫師力量也有限,老闆娘常常會遇到很多傷心無力的貓咪生老病死,但是因為有了貓咪讓人喜悅,她和所有極簡的工作夥伴一起努力打拼,今年年底因為租約等種種關係應該會進行搬遷。老闆娘表示為了附近的街貓還有工作夥伴交通等問題會盡量還是在附近找到空間營業。如果可以幫忙我也願意幫忙老闆娘一些可以做一點簡單的義賣。

Michico : Minimal Cafe is my favorite cats cafe, there are lots of cat cafes in Taiwan, but this one is my favorite. This cafe has very unique atmosphere here. Dark light let cats feel calm and comfy. Dark interior design let people go inside will also feel peace. I love going any store of cats, but only Minimal cafe will let me go and go again. Cafe's owner also taking care many street cats around this cafe shop, she is working very hard, also some people put their cat into the cage and abandon in front of Minimal Cafe ask owner to keep them. There are lots of cats in Minimal Cafe, each of them has their own life style.

One person's ability has it's limited, plus staffs' and vets abilities also have limited. Minimal cafe's owner often experience cat's birth, sick, old and died...But because cats makes people joy, so she and her staffs work very hard to keep these cats safe. At the end of 2007, because of rent, Minimal Cafe will move, but cafe owner said she will move to a place very near here, for street cats around here and also for her staffs' transportaion issue. I also will attend Minimal Cafe some charity-bazaars, I will see what I could do.

麥克:這隻貓聽說是極簡的店貓,她很溫和也會幫老闆娘招呼客人非常親人。
Mike:This cat is Minimal Cafe's main cat, she is very tenderness and helping cafe's owner take care all the customer, she is nice to every visitor~! She is very nice to ME~!

麥克:咖啡機上面非常的溫暖,是最棒的暖爐。
Mike:Coffee machine is very very warm, it's the best heater to cats.

(亦可在這看,also could see album here)
以下是這次咖啡店的幻燈片:
Here is the slide show of last night Minimal Cafe:


麥克:離開極簡後我們經過師大夜市,好多店裡面都有貓咪,看看這家精品店有兩隻貓咪在為對方洗澡真甜蜜。

Mike : After leaving Minimal Cafe we went through the night market near there, there are lots of stores has cats inside, look~! There are 2 cats in that boutique and bathing to each other, how sweet~!

麥克 : 美髮沙龍也有店貓~!

Mike : Hair-Salon also have shop cat inside~!

麥克:噢不是兩隻~!

Mike:Oah, make it 2~!!

麥克:台北(台灣處處有愛貓的角落喔)也是個愛貓的城市,可以來這邊真好~!

Mike:Taipei (there are many spots in Taiwan also could find cats lovers~!)is a city loving cats very much, it's so nice to be here.

★★★★★★★★★★★回家後back home★★★★★★★★★★

小芥:每次從極簡回家我都會先把衣服都拖掉洗手等等等才開門讓阿丹(他是個大醋醰啊,身上其他貓味太重他會對我冷戰)從我房間出來,因為他的表情就是:「說!你去跟哪個貓咪鬼混了,妳只能愛我一個妳不能出軌」XD~~ 所以要把身上的味道掩滅乾淨,不過還是會被抓包。挖哈,這時候安撫的動作是很重要的。阿丹小親乖,我真的最愛你拉~!
Michico:Everytime I back from Minimal Cafe, I always take off my clothes and washed my hands and clean my bags, then open the bedroom door to let Adan gets out, because Adan is a super jealous guy~~, if he finds there are two many strong cats smell on my clothes, he will be angry to me a hour at least, so this cleaning procedure is very important, hahahaha~! But Adan is very clever, he always could detect something, so, right now conciliation is also very important~! Adan, I really love you the best, not to worry at all~!

That cafe sounds like a wonderful place. There are certainly a lot of shop cats in Taiwan! It looks like Mike is having a great time with you. :)

Daisy said...

Minimal Cafe looks very wonderful! We would love to go someplace like that. I think it's great that Taipei is such a cat-loving place. There are no places like Minimal Cafe where we live.

Ramses said...

Oh wow a cat café! Now that's what I call living! :) Make mine a large catmilk infused with 'nip please! :)

Zippy, Sadie, Speedy and M'Gee said...

Oh, we want to come there! There are few places that allow cats here, there is one coffee shop that Zippy went to with mom called Lattitudes. They even let our niece play their piano!

我家的也會檢查呢!
原來大家的貓兒都不准媽媽花心,呵呵

LZ said...

Cat Cafes? That is SO cool! I love that there are so many cats around Taipei. Here it seems mostly woofies are allowed places and that's not fair.

Thank you for sharing your adventures at the Minimal Cafe.
What a wonderful place to go to love kitties that did not have a home. Now they are loved and cared for AND they have many many friends!

We hope all of you have a lovely day today. Here it is raining all day. I will nap in my tent and Prinnie will snuggle in her bloo blankie.
Blizzie was home yesterday but now she is back at college in Pennsylvania. It is almost like a dream that she was here petting us and loving us.

Big boy Headbutts Adan and Mike!

We don't have cat-friendly places like the cafe anywhere here. Now I really want to visit, just like Mike! I think it is wonderful how much everyone loves us kitties. It looks like Mike is having a great time. I'm jealous!

Forty Paws said...

That is so wonderful that the owner of Minimal Cafe is so caring for all the street cats! How generous and loving of her. She is a fantastic person! That is really cool that Taipei is so cat loving and lets their shops have shop cats!

Happy Birthday Adan! He doesn't look a day over 2, what a gorgeous cat he is. This is truly an adorable blog. It's nice to know that so many other people go berserk over their cats like I do over mine. I hope Mike is enjoying himself as much as he looks like he is!

It looks like Mike is enjoying his visit with yo and Michico very much. The Minimal Cafe sounds very interesting!

I LOVE the idea of a cat cafe, how wonderful is that! In our town we have a second hand bookshop that has a very old dog and a couple of cats, but that is the only store I can think of that does that. I think there should be a cat in every store and cafe : )

We've never seen so many places that allow cats before. We think it is wonderful!
