Takamatsu, Kagawa · 0.2 mi / 0.4 km

SPHYNX CAT CAFE is a small cat cafe in Konyamachi, central Takamatsu, dedicated to hairless cats. Opened in September 2023 by a breeder, it is home to about five Sphynx and Elf cats, a curl-eared hairless breed, which are known for being sociable and enjoying close contact; their warm, bare skin also makes the cafe an option for some visitors who react to fur. Visits are by reservation only, and each booking has the room to itself, so one group at a time spends the session with the cats and the owner. The charge is per person per hour. Kittens bred by the owner are raised at the cafe until about six months old and then sold to new homes, and visiting first is encouraged before deciding. Visitors must be 11 or older, flash photography is not allowed, and there is no parking.
