橘光呼嚕X背包Cat is a long-running rescue (halfway-house) cat cafe that has moved from Tunghai Art Street to new premises in a lane off Yongfu Road in Xitun District, Taichung. The new building separates people from cats: the ground floor is the dining room, the second floor is home to the healthy cats, and the third floor houses cats receiving ongoing care, some of them older cats or ones prone to colds. A large group of cats lives here, and many become friendly once offered a lickable treat. There is a NT$150 minimum spend per person, ordering is by QR code at the table, and Wi-Fi is available. The menu covers brunch, waffles, pasta, curry, cakes and drinks at gentle prices. Seating is limited, so booking online is recommended.

先龍覺醒貓咪咖啡廳 is a bright cat cafe on Section 3 of Liming Road in Xitun District, Taichung.

There is no time limit on time with the cats, which makes it popular with families: children can play with the cats while parents relax.

The menu offers burgers, set lunches with a drink and panna cotta, cakes and late-night barbecue. Weekend visits should be booked through the cafe's LINE account.
