The Cats

Willow and Whitney have been adopted in early 2023 by the café owners.

They are sisters, both around nine years old and they absolutely love to eat, play and getting long naps. And they never bite or scratch, totally kind cats!

@mahanuimatcha My newest project is to renew my coffee station, so that I can have the espresso machine, the mill and the kettle all in one place. Good news: The new cabinet arrived yesterday 📦✨ Until it's fully assembled and furnished, I had to quickly make a Mango Iced Matcha Latte ☺️🫶🏼 #matcha #icedmatcha #icedmatchalatte #matchalatte #coffee #espressomachine #homecafe #makeadrink #matchatok #coffeetok #matchalover #ecm ♬ BIRDS OF A FEATHER sped up - Dear.angel.lacy14
