Kotkowe LOVE

Gdynia, Pomeranian · 7 mi / 11 km

Biały Kot (White Cat) is a cat cafe on ul. Władysława IV in central Gdynia, opposite the fire station. Opened in May 2017 by Mikołaj and Joanna Haczewski, it was the first cat cafe in the Tricity. It is a foster home for cats from the OTOZ Animals Ciapkowo shelter in Gdynia: the cats formally belong to the shelter, all of them are looking for permanent homes, and close to 200 have been adopted so far, with no adoption fee charged by the cafe. The menu has coffee from a local roastery, homemade cakes and themed drinks, and there are books and board games. Visitors should not pick up the cats or make sudden movements, as many come from difficult backgrounds. Children under 10 are not admitted, staff may ask for ID to confirm age, and visitors without an adult must be at least 13.

It is calm and quiet, and visitors are asked to let the cats decide on contact.

Kotka Cafe is a cat cafe on ul. Ludwika Waryńskiego in the Wrzeszcz district of Gdańsk. It opened in May 2017 on the old market square in Oliwa and moved to Wrzeszcz in 2025.

After changes to Polish animal protection rules in March 2026, the cats living in the cafe are now the owners' own adopted cats, while the team still arranges adoptions of cats staying in private foster homes. The menu centres on coffee and homemade cake, with board games on hand. The cafe is for visitors aged 14 and over; children aged 10 to 14 can come with a phone reservation, and younger children only at weekend workshops run with a cat behaviourist.
