A cafe serving coffee, lattes, cakes and soft-serve ice cream is separated by glass from the cat room, where more than ten rescued cats live while they wait for adoption. The cat room is charged per 30 minutes with one food or drink order, and the cafe can be used on its own. Children aged three and over who can follow the rules may enter the cat room. The cafe is closed on Wednesdays.

Fureai Space Cody no Isu
Okayama2.5 mi / 4.1 km
Cody no Isu is a dog and cat cafe on the second floor of a building on the Holland-dori section of the Omotecho shopping arcade in central Okayama. Small, medium and large dogs, including young dogs and breeds such as a Borzoi, share one room with the resident cats, and there is also a quieter cat corner at the back. The animals are very used to people and often compete for a place on visitors' laps, so visitors are asked to wear socks and clothes that can get fur on them. Entry is charged per hour, with 30-minute extensions. Because of the large dogs, children are admitted from about age 10. Booking is recommended at weekends and for groups. The cafe is closed on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and the fourth Sunday of the month, and temporary closures are posted on Instagram.

Hayashima, Okayama3.6 mi / 5.7 km

Every Saturday and Sunday afternoon, rescued adult cats and kittens roam a free space where visitors can play with them, whether or not they plan to adopt.

A small shop sells cat goods and handmade items to support the rescue work, and a veterinary consultation is available by booking during opening hours. Opening times vary from week to week and are posted on the group's blog, and some weekends are skipped. The phone is answered only during opening hours.
