Yoga is better with cats!
Boston yoga studio Yoga at Connie's recently partnered up with a local animal shelter to bring several cats into the studio. The idea is the brain child of Jeanette Skaluba, the studio's social media volunteer, who came up with the plan after a video of a cat riding on her shoulder went viral.
The cats are all adoptable adult animals, and by having them available in the yoga studio, Skaluba hopes that it will help people see the cats' individual personalities and "envision these pets in their home easier, because they're outside the shelter."
The cat yoga studio is surfing the trend for "cat cafes," where people can visit with shelter cats while sipping a latte. Cat cafes have opened in several cities around the United States - are cat yoga studios the next big thing?
