Mindful meoweler tips

New York City has a "cat" cafe!

Visit Meow Parlour, where you can pet adoptable cats and enjoy treats from their bakery cafe. Don't forget to make a reservation first!

The "cat"-stronomical Empire State Building

Take a visit up to the 86th floor observation deck of this iconic skyscraper and see Manhattan from above. Fun fact: the building has its own ZIP code!

Times Square's "cat"-astrophic crowds

While this bustling tourist mecca may be a must-see, be prepared to navigate through the crowds of people and bright lights. Try to visit during off-peak hours to avoid the mass of people.

Central Park's "cat"nip for nature lovers

Escape the city chaos by visiting this urban oasis. Rent a rowboat or take a walk on one of the many picturesque paths. Don't miss the Alice in Wonderland statue or the Central Park Zoo.

The "cat"walk of Fifth Avenue
