All over the state of New York, you can find zoos and wildlife preserves that will allow you the opportunity to get up close with all sorts of animals. Sadly, not all of these attractions remain open all year long, leaving us longing for some one-on-one time with four-legged friends during the off season. Thankfully for us, more and more places of business like cat cafes have begun to pop up all over the Empire State and you’ll want to plan a visit to this one!

Out in New York's scenic Finger Lakes Region, Tompkins County is home to one of the most furry and fantastical places of business - Alley Cat Cafe.
