House Rules

Our cats are calm, friendly, and confident — and we’d like to keep it that way. These simple guidelines ensure a safe and enjoyable visit for everyone.

Stay Calm and Relaxed

Keep your voice soft and your movements gentle. Sudden actions, loud talking, or running may stress the cats or disrupt the atmosphere. Please walk at all times inside the cafe.

Don’t Offer Your Fingers to the Cats

There’s no need to place your hand in front of a cat’s nose — it doesn’t help them get to know you and can actually feel intrusive. Also, avoid putting your face too close or making direct eye contact for too long — cats may see this as a challenge.

Let Them Come to You

The best way to meet a cat is on their terms. Lower yourself by sitting or crouching, and approach slowly from the side, not from above.

Gentle Pats Only

Once a cat approaches you, feel free to give them 3 to 5 gentle strokes on the back, then pause and give them space. This prevents overstimulation and keeps the interaction positive.

Strict No-Patting Zones

Please avoid patting bellies, paws, faces, noses, and whiskers. Picking up or hugging the cats is not allowed — it can make even the most confident cat feel unsafe.

Socks Are a Must

Socks are required to enter the cat area. If you forget to bring a pair, don’t worry — we have adorable socks available for purchase at the counter.

Children Under 10 Need an Adult

For safety, children under 10 must be accompanied by an adult (please note, domestic helpers do not count as accompanying adults).
