Do cat cafés help reduce stress?

BBC story here

From the article:

Stressed out? Overworked? Feeling unloved? Perhaps you need some downtime with a furry friend, away from the pressures of a high-tech workplace. Cat cafes, a novel concept appealing to everyone from lost souls to burned-out commuters, are a growing trend in some of the world’s big cities.

who should never be exposed to pets because they just sort of attract attacks. be careful who you bring there. Like a lot of cats have a love hate relationship with me. dogs are just easier.
