Fat Cat Cafe & Hotel Korat
Fat Cat Cafe & Hotel is a cat cafe and cat hotel on Mittraphap–Nong Khai Road in central Nakhon Ratchasima (Korat), not far from Makro. True to its name, the cafe's cat room is home to around ten plump, sociable cats, nearly all British Shorthairs, who greet visitors by rubbing their heads against them and are happy to be stroked. There is no entry fee: each guest simply orders one food or drink item before heading up to the cats, and the menu of drinks and snacks such as French fries is reasonably priced. The cat room is compact but clean; visitors sensitive to cat hair may want to bring a mask. Alongside the cafe, the business runs a cat hotel with air-conditioned VIP rooms, wall-mounted climbing shelves and staff on site around the clock, so owners can also board their own cats here.

Nakhon Ratchasima0.7 mi / 1.2 km
This branch of the Koi Kafae Sot coffee shop in Nong Krathum, on the northern side of Nakhon Ratchasima (Korat) city, doubles as a quiet neighbourhood cat cafe. The bright, minimalist room is shared with around six resident cats, mostly pedigree breeds, who wander between the tables or doze on the seats while customers eat and drink. Cat food is sold at the counter if you would like to feed them. The kitchen serves a wider menu than most cat cafes, with Thai dishes alongside Western plates such as pork steak and spaghetti carbonara, plus coffee, tea and a long list of other drinks, all at modest prices and with options for children. It is generally calm on weekdays, which makes it a good place to read or work with a cat nearby. Parking is on the street opposite the shop.
