Photography: Valerie Hansen Catpuccino anyone?  If you are a lover of coffee and cats, then  "Meowtropolitan"  cafe is a must see destination! The Wallingford area of Seattle is home to this new coffee shop and cattery. Cat cafes are quite popular in Europe, and are starting to gain popularity here in the states.

When I heard the Meowtropolitan was coming to town, I knew I had to get there asap!
