Kanazawa, Ishikawa · 38 mi / 62 km

Cat Cafe nyanchi is a small cat cafe in Yokaichidemachi, in the south-west of Kanazawa, about 14 minutes on foot from Nishi-Kanazawa Station. It moved to its current, smaller premises in February 2026, with a few parking spaces in front on a busy road. The cats are rescued cats and they live here as house cats rather than trained cafe cats, so some are lively and some prefer to nap, while treats bought at the counter bring the whole room running. Visits are charged by time, drinks can be ordered separately, socks are required and picking up the cats is not allowed. The cafe is for elementary school children and older, and preschoolers can visit only on kids' days on the second and fourth Sundays. Because the room is small, booking ahead is requested, and opening times sometimes change at short notice and are announced on social media.

Nagahama, Shiga · 49 mi / 79 km

Nyan's House is an adoption cat cafe on the third floor of a building in Yawatanakayamacho, Nagahama, in the north of Shiga. Its cats were rescued from breeding operations, hoarding cases, pet shops and animal centres, and they include Ragdolls, Norwegian Forest Cats and mixed breeds, with a few permanent resident cats among those waiting for homes. The room is clean and spacious, and many of the cats have been patiently socialised, though some newer arrivals are still shy, so visitors are asked to move quietly. Visits are by reservation only through the website form and are charged per hour with one drink, with extensions in 10-minute steps, lower rates for students and children, and limited cat treats for sale. Adoption requires at least three visits, a short screening and a two-week home trial. The cafe opens Friday to Monday and closes Tuesday to Thursday.
