BROOKLYN Attempt to regain your sanity as the election results roll in by cuddling up with some feline friends Tuesday night in Brooklyn Heights. The Brooklyn Cat Cafe, at 149 Atlantic Ave., will be hosting an election night comfort party from 8 p.m. to midnight.
The cafe, where about a dozen adoptable cats roam free, will be screening the election results on a projector, as well as some funny cat videos interspersed throughout to help reduce the tension, a listing for the event said. The watch party is meant to bring a sense of humor to whats been a tumultuous election season, said Anne Levin, president Brooklyn Bridge Animal Welfare Coalition, which runs the cafe.
Its been kind of a traumatic election season, Levin said. The cat cafe is a comforting place, kind of a zen environment.

In addition to his article on what amounts to "pet therapy" for the emotionally fragile, DNAInfo is asking its readership how they will be coping with tonight's election results.
Not sounding too confident, are they?

149 Atlantic.
If you leave late and walk 2 blocks in the wrong direction, you’ll need more than comfort from a cat.

My four cats will be voting Trump, although the older cats have to slap some common sense into the kitten when he starts to yowl ‘third party’.

They installed insanely bright street lights along Joralemon a few months ago. Crime is up in the neighborhood since Brooklyn Bridge Park opened . . . and Joralemon is the main corridor to the park from the subway.

I’d like to take my cats to vote, but they’re undocumented pussies.

My older male kitty is hard core Trump and has already voted.
My younger female felt the Bern earlier this year and is sitting the whole thing out.

What a pretty, adorable cat.
There’s nothing like a grey tabby.

Forget about it. My friend owns a pizzeria on Atlantic Avenue and does great business, but I hate that area. Too packed and like you said, crime is up and it wasn’t that low to begin with.

She’s actually a black tabby. The color didn’t render too well. And she’s saying, “I own this guy. Any questions?”
Tabbies rule.
