A new cat cafe has received a £1,200 grant from a local council. Andover Catfe on Winchester Road, Andover, was awarded an Independent Retailer Grant from Test Valley Borough Council.
Owner Stuart Waue said the money was a "great help to get us off the ground and up and running".
Jennie Pell, principal economic development officer at Test Valley Borough Council, said the cafe was a "unique attraction" for Andover and that the council was "delighted" to support it.
A pretty niche 'economic development' there, I think! What's its longevity?
The Andover Catfe was first proposed by Mr Waue's son Jack at the Youth in Test Valley Awards. It was not the winning bid but attracted substantial interest, so the family decided to pursue it.
With other people's money...
