Interview! Christina Ha, Co-Founder of Meow Parlour and Creator of Cat Camp NYC

"How can I bridge the gap between people who want to learn about cats and the experts who know all about cats?"

Until 3 1/2 years ago, Christina's passion was food rather than felines. But after adopting her first kitty, Mr. Socks, she decided to combine her talents as a pastry chef with a growing interest in cats by becoming the co-founder of Meow Parlour, New York City's first-ever cat cafe. "I couldn't understand why are were cat cafes all over the world and not in New York," she observes. Meow Parlour partners with Kitty Kind, an all-volunteer rescue group who provides cats for the cafe, many of whom have found forever homes in the process. Christina also details her upcoming event, Cat Camp NYC, a two day feline-focused event in March featuring speakers, shopping and interaction with cat lovers from all over.
