Kotovasia ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌⁠is a private museum and gallery of cat-themed art and objects on Dzerzhinsky Avenue in south-western Minsk, about 500 metres from Malinovka metro station. It opened in July 2016, and by June 2026 its collection held more than 8,000 items from over 110 countries, from paintings and sculptures to chess sets, perfume bottles, bells and coins in the shape of cats. It is not a cat cafe in the usual sense, but rescued former street cats live on the premises (the owners say at least ten), and several of them roam the gallery and greet visitors. The gallery works with Stary Kot (Old Cat), a Minsk project that rescues injured stray cats and finds them homes, and people who adopt a cat from that project get free entry on the day. Tickets cost between 10 and 28 Belarusian rubles in 2026, depending on age and group size, with guided tours extra; coffee, juice and souvenirs are sold, and Kotobaza, a cat-themed shop run by the same owners, is at the same address. It is open every day from 11 AM to 8 PM. The entrance is on the outside of the long curved building at number 131, level with its third stairwell, on the side facing Napoleon Orda Street.

Its cats are former strays, all vaccinated, treated and with vet passports, and they are up for adoption: by October 2026 the cafe said 61 cats had gone to new homes through it. Visits are booked in advance and are more a guided meeting with the cats than a meal. In October 2026 the cafe's website listed a 90-minute visit at 15 Belarusian rubles a person, including cat-themed tea or coffee (cocoa for small children), a chance to feed the cats and a cat-drawing contest. Groups of eight to ten people can book a private two-hour session, couples can book the whole cafe for a three-hour "fluffy date", and a short tour about the project costs extra. Guests must be at least 10 years old, and children must come with a parent. Sessions are held on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 6 PM to 8 PM and on Saturday from 3 PM to 5 PM and from 7 PM to 9 PM; book through the cafe's Instagram or by phone or Viber. The cats have a separate room they can retreat to when they want a rest.
