Cape Town and its exquisite restaurants brought about places for you to enjoy your coffee alongside a furry friend. Cat cafés in Africa were first introduced in Cape Town on 2 December 2017. Cafés with felines offer a unique way to experience the Mother City’s charm and learn more about cats. They are also a great way to de-stress and relax after a long day of sightseeing.
Here are some of the most popular cat cafés in Cape Town:
Curiosity Cat Café
Siberian cats, a beautiful breed, are available to meet and greet at the outdoor Curiosity Cat Cafe in Noordhoek, where you can also enjoy homemade baked treats, tea or coffee.
Visitors can pet and pick up cats while taking in the view of Noordhoek beach. The cat café also offers an Airbnb stay above the café.
Located in Noordhoek, Cape Town
Cat Heaven Gift Shop
The first ever cat café in Africa, Cat Heaven, is also a non-profit organization. It has 22 rescue cats, each of which is named and introduced to visitors on a pamphlet. Visitors can sit down at a table under a sun umbrella and be surrounded by cats. You can sponsor these cats on a monthly basis and become their adoptive parent. This will give you free access to visit the cafe and receive regular updates on the cats.
The menu consists of cat treats to feed the felines for better engagement and human desserts and drinks.
Cat Heaven has the biggest cat-themed gift shop on the continent with an array of different cat-themed utensils, cat supplies, decorations and so much more!
Located at 35 Bright St, Audas Estate, Somerset West, Cape Town.
