CatsHouse Nekoya
CatsHouse Nekoya is a cat cafe in Kamegahora, Midori Ward, Nagoya, aimed at people with cat allergies, about 8 minutes on foot from Tokushige Subway Station and in front of the Kuma-no-mae bus stop, with three parking spaces. About 10 friendly cats live here, chosen from breeds such as Siberians that are considered less likely to trigger allergies, and the wood-panelled room is kept low in allergens; symptoms are not guaranteed to be avoided. The cats live free-roaming around the clock and can be stroked and, once settled, held. The entry fee covers the first 30 minutes and free drinks, with a daily maximum. Visitors must wear socks and avoid strong perfume or fabric softener. The owners also give advice on living with cats. Closed on Thursdays.

Nagoya, Aichi4.5 mi / 7.3 km
Wabisabi House is a small-scale dog and cat breeder in Takamacho, Meito Ward, Nagoya, that opens its home as a petting cafe on weekends and public holidays in the afternoon and evening. Visitors can spend time with friendly cats, including Norwegian Forest Cats, and small dogs such as Chihuahuas and Pomeranians, and a pet parakeet greets guests at the door.
