Teo Cat Café
La Paz337 mi / 543 km
Teo Cat Café is a cat cafe on Calle Montevideo at Avenida Capitán Ravelo in La Paz, opened in January 2026 by Gisel Rodríguez and presented as the city's first cat cafe.

Customers can go into the cat area to play with and stroke the cats under house rules: cats must not be forced to stay or touched on sensitive areas such as the belly, and they may only be given treats approved by staff. The cats come from the owner's shelter and can be adopted, and spending at the cafe supports the shelter. Information and reservations are handled by phone and WhatsApp.
