Would you like reading books with a lap cat?

A book store for cat lovers has opened in Nanjing, East China's Jiangsu province, drawing in countless furry felines and their friends to spend their day together.

As more people are reading books online, traditional stores are recording decline in sales. In order to retain and attract more customers, some book stores are no longer selling just books now. They also provide value-added services such as sell coffee and plants, offer comfortable space to customers to read, and have even "hired" cute animals to attract readers.
