There are cats everywhere!
Even sitting on the menu cards!

The large windows create an atmosphere of warmth. Quiz: Can you count the number of cats in this picture?

Here, we have one chilling under the table-slightly perturbed by our presence :D

Since the cats are given complete freedom of movement, we saw some climbing up to the warmth of the window.

Cats are ready for a selfie, almost as if they are too used to this!

Cat's meal time

There is a fixed time to feed the cats, and its adorable to see them lined up.

And of course, post-meal comes the time to laze and go to sleep.

Wi-Fi is available in the cafe.

There are many cat cafes in Tokyo but we highly recommend visiting this one in the hip area of Kichijoji.
