Gattò Bistrot
Portici, Campania193 mi / 310 km
Gattò Bistrot is a vegetarian cat bistro in Portici, on the Bay of Naples, a short walk from Portici-Bellavista station on the Circumvesuviana line between Naples and Herculaneum. Valentina Cuomo opened it in March 2019 as the first cat cafe in Campania, and its name plays on the Neapolitan word for cat and the potato gattò. About seven resident cats, all former strays from Portici, move freely around the small room and are not up for adoption. The kitchen is fully vegetarian with vegan, lactose-free and gluten-free options, from curries to homemade desserts such as tiramisù and cheesecake, and the bar has a long, changing list of craft beers and ciders, homemade iced teas and lemonades. There are board games and an open-shelf library, and the bistro hosts talks on animal welfare, the environment and human rights. It opens from late afternoon, Wednesday to Sunday, and booking is required.

Cat Cafè di Chry
Cagliari, Sardinia240 mi / 386 km
Cat Cafè di Chry is a small cafe with resident cats on Via San Giacomo in Villanova, the historic quarter of Cagliari, close to the Church of San Giacomo. Cristina opened it in November 2017 as the first cat cafe in Sardinia, and it is now the only one on the island. Six former strays live here, rescued from street colonies, roadsides and abandonment, and they were settled in with the help of a feline behaviourist. They roam freely among the tables, sofas, walkways and hiding places. Everyone at the table orders from the menu, and a small cat therapy supplement is added per person. The menu runs from teas, coffees and milkshakes to crêpes, scones, cakes, savoury snacks and an aperitivo, with vegan options. Board games and a bookcrossing shelf are available. The cafe opens in the late afternoon and evening, Tuesday to Sunday, and booking ahead is recommended.
