Neko to Asobo Happy Cats
Sendai, Miyagi5.6 mi / 9.0 km
Happy Cats is a cat room in Takatamamachi, Izumi Ward, Sendai, next to the Sento animal hospital, which arranges adoptions of the cats. It is a place simply for spending time with cats: no food, drinks or cat treats are sold, and visitors may bring their own drinks in capped bottles or flasks. Many friendly cats, a large share of them rescues, move freely between three rooms, and many will settle on laps. Visitors put on slippers, wash their hands, buy a 30-minute or one-hour ticket from a machine that takes only 1,000-yen notes, and pay for extensions the same way. Socks are required and are not sold on site. The cats take 30-minute breaks at quiet times, entry may be limited when busy, and booking by phone is recommended. The room is closed on Thursdays.
