Espai de Gats

Espai de Gats, located at Carrer de Terol 29-33 in the Gràcia district of Barcelona, Spain, holds the distinction of being Barcelona's first cat café, offering a unique blend of relaxation, education, and feline companionship in a vibrant neighborhood known for its bohemian charm. This pioneering space charges a modest entry fee (starting at €6 for one hour) to enjoy the company of rescued cats, all sterilized, vaccinated, and adoptable, while sipping coffee or tea from its self-managed cafeteria. Beyond a typical café, Espai de Gats serves as an adoption center and school, partnering with local shelters to give visibility to adult cats often overlooked in refuges, and hosting workshops by feline therapist Rosa Aguilera to deepen visitors' understanding of cat care and welfare. Just steps from Gràcia's lively streets, this non-profit sanctuary invites cat lovers to unwind, learn, and potentially adopt, with a mission to reduce feline abandonment in Catalonia's bustling capital.
