Virginia Could Get its Own Cat Cafe

Virginia might be getting its own cat cafe.

A fundraising campaign has launched for an Alexandria cat cafe. The name is a doozy:  pHinicky pHeline. The campaign says founder Nyree Wright is working with Alexandria city officials to find a location. They're also still looking for adoption partners and figuring out exactly how things would work from a regulatory standpoint.

D.C.'s first cat cafe, Crumbs & Whiskers, opened in Georgetown earlier this summer.

The Washington Post first reported news of the Alexandria project.
