Hiroshima · 0.9 mi / 1.5 km

Neco Republic Hiroshima is a rescue cat cafe on the second floor of a building in the Showa-era Takanobashi shopping arcade, about three minutes on foot from the Takanobashi tram stop and 15 minutes from the Peace Memorial Park. Run since 2016 as a partner of the Neco Republic adoption cafe brand, it keeps the number of cats to around 13 to 15 adults so the room stays calm, and all of them are looking for new homes through the cafe's adoption process. Visits are charged per 30 or 60 minutes at the same rate for adults and children. On weekdays only one group is admitted at a time, while several groups can share the room at weekends, so booking through the online form or by phone is recommended. The cafe also sells original goods, with proceeds going to rescue work. It is closed on Tuesdays.
