1. Cat Cafe Neko no Niwa, Singapore.

The main mission of many cat cafes around the world is to draw public attention to the problem of abandoned and homeless animals. The owners of the Singapore cafe, Sam and Sue, opened their cafe for this very purpose: to give an opportunity for ordinary cats without a breed at home to become loved and take care of them on par with pets.

2. "Republic of Cats", St. Petersburg.

This place combines a cafe and a cat museum at the same time. The opening of this institution is dated the summer of 2011. At the moment, 20 cat breeds from Maine Coon to Sphynx have found a place in the cafe. The cat cafe in St. Petersburg is wildly popular, so if you want to get here, then take care of an appointment.

3. Le Cafe des Chats, Paris.

This cat cafe opened in 2013 in Marais, Paris. Of course, it would be a good time to call it a restaurant, considering what a varied and rich menu this place offers, but many visitors still cannot understand why such a luxury if cats cannot be fed from the table with their foie gras.

4. Lady Dinah's Cat Emporium, London.

This cafe was the first to announce such a new format in all of London in 2014. Cat Cafe instantly gained public popularity. Registration for visiting this institution is carried out many months in advance. Perhaps this is due to affordability because a two-hour stay in such a cafe will cost you only 5 pounds (and this is mere trifles by the standards of the British).

5. Temari no Ouchi and Nyafe Melange, Tokyo.

Tokyo is a real storehouse of various cat cafes. Due to the fact that many Japanese people will not be able to keep animals in their own homes, more than 40 cafes have opened in Tokyo in a short time, where you can come and have a good time in the company of furry friends. Each cat cafe in Japan is specialized in a certain breed, color, or even physique of cats staying there.

6. Il Neko Cafe, Turin.

The first cat cafe in Italy accrues only 7 cats. Coming here, you will not only be able to relax, drowning in the caress of purring tails, but also play a board game or, for example, read an interesting book.

7. Purrfect Cat Cafe, Penang.

The peculiarity of this cafe in Malaysia is that only 8 cats “work” in it, which come out in shifts. Therefore, it is unlikely that you will be able to see them all at the same time. Since Penang is mostly a resort town, it is not at all surprising that the first cat cafe in Malaysia opened to the delight of tourists here, and not in the capital.

8. Cafe Neko, Vienna.

This unusual cafe format came to Vienna from Tokyo and was opened by a real Japanese woman. Therefore, visitors here, in addition to the exotic in the form of a company of cats, can also try unusual Japanese teas.

9. "Cats and people", Moscow.

The most distinctive feature of this cafe is that you can come here as an ordinary person with your problems and worries in your head, and come out as the owner of a warm, purring creature. This cafe works in support of homeless animals, helping them find a new home and caring for owners in such an unpretentious way.

10. La Gatoteca, Madrid.

This cafe also pursues the noble mission of supporting homeless animals. Everything is arranged here for them: from soft toys that you can chew on and rugs on which you can lie down and end with a huge variety of boxes and drawers where you can lie down, substituting your belly for scratching ...
