Hogo Neko Cafe SOLTEA is a small adoption-based rescue cat cafe in Tamadenishi, Nishinari Ward, about eight minutes on foot from Tamade Station on the Yotsubashi Line and from Kishinosato-Tamade Station on the Nankai Line. It opened in April 2026 and is also a Type B continuous employment support facility, where people with disabilities work at the cafe. The idea came after the team found a dying kitten on their office stairs. The resident cats are all rescues, among them a cat saved after a serious injury, two from a multi-cat hoarding situation and one from a breeder, and they are available for adoption. Visits are booked as 30- or 60-minute courses, plus one drink. Children of elementary school age and younger pay a slightly lower rate. The room holds only four or five visitors, and socks are required. The cafe is closed on Sundays.
