Gatuari

Gatuari, located at Carrer de Sant Lluís 14, Local 2, in the Gràcia district of Barcelona, Spain, is a pioneering cat café dedicated to the welfare and adoption of "invisible" cats—those often overlooked in shelters due to age, color, or shyness. Open Wednesday to Friday from 5 PM to 9 PM and weekends from 11 AM to 2 PM and 5 PM to 9 PM, this non-profit sanctuary offers a tranquil space where visitors can enjoy organic coffee, tea, or juice (included with a €7-€9 entry fee) while bonding with adoptable felines during 45-minute sessions, all designed to prioritize the cats’ comfort with a limited capacity and advance booking system. Beyond a café, Gatuari serves as a co-living hub for cats from shelters across Spain, providing catsitting services, balcony safety netting, and educational workshops on feline care, all aimed at fostering responsible adoptions and deepening human-cat connections. Nestled in the bohemian Gràcia neighborhood, just a short stroll from Barcelona’s vibrant streets, Gatuari blends relaxation with a heartfelt mission, making it a must-visit for cat lovers seeking to support a transformative cause.
