You’re not going to believe this, but we found what very well could be the single greatest place in the entire Hoosier State. We’ve covered countless gorgeous trails, breathtaking landscapes, eerie haunted places, ghost towns, and more, but this – this – might just be the best of the best. Okay, are you sitting down? Good. Y’all: we found a cat cafe in Indiana. It’s in Indy. And yes, it’s real life.

The cat lounge part of the cafe requires a fee (which is really just a donation since it, of course, goes to the welfare of the feline denizens of the cafe) to enter. It's just $10 for 55 minutes, and it's so much fun.
