Armenia, Quindio, Colombia
Don Gato Cat Café
Don Gato is the first cat cafe in Armenia, the capital of Quindío in Colombia's coffee region, and sits on Calle 8 in the city. Its 'casita gatuna' is a place to switch off, eat and spend time with rescued cats, which live there as a foster home while the team looks for adoptive families. The cats wander freely and often climb onto the tables. The menu is varied, with coffee, drinks such as mint lemonade, savoury dishes and desserts like almojábana pudding, and every visit helps fund the rescues. The cafe has board games and a film room with screenings on Thursdays, and house rules for interacting with the cats are posted for visitors. It opens every afternoon except Sunday.

Cookie Cat Café San Antonio
Cali, Valle del Cauca97 mi / 155 km
Cookie Cat Café is a cat cafe and pet shop in a house on Calle 3 in San Antonio, Cali's historic hillside neighbourhood, close to the San Antonio church and park. It was founded by Mayra Pájaro in memory of Galleta, a kitten she rescued in Barranquilla, and supports its sister foundation Huellitas Callejeras, a Barranquilla rescue group that every visit and purchase helps fund. The cafe serves coffee, milkshakes, desserts and themed food on the ground floor and terrace, while the rescued cats live upstairs in a separate cat area and a third-floor cat garden. Several of the cats have FIV or feline leukaemia, conditions that often bar them from other shelters, and many are available for adoption. Ceramic painting and cat yoga sessions are held, and a cat-themed coworking space, Catworking, operates in the same building.
