Not Your Everyday Coffee in a Serbia Cafe. Enjoy It in the Company of Alpacas

On Wednesday, the Tiganjica Ethno-Village resort in Stajicevo, Serbia, opened a rare Alpaca Cafe where six alpacas roam among tables, interacting with guests 50 kilometers north of Belgrade.
Resort owner Zoran Ostojin conceived the cafe after visiting Slovakia, aiming to share the animals' energy with his country. The herd began eight years ago with a gift from the Belgrade Zoo.
Alpaca carer Simona Frangi notes each of the six animals possesses a distinct personality, with Snezana leading the herd. Visitors receive buckets of carrots, lettuce, and apples to feed the animals during organized tours.
Prearranged visits cost around 10 euros , including a drink and alpaca food. Ostojin said he "very much liked the energy, the emotion that this animal sends out. Almost like a healing ability."
Alpacas are sensitive to human intentions, naturally moving away if they feel threatened, yet known for their mild, friendly disposition and gentle humming sounds used to communicate.
