Nagoya, Aichi, Japan
Wabisabi House
Wabisabi House is a small-scale dog and cat breeder in Takamacho, Meito Ward, Nagoya, that opens its home as a petting cafe on weekends and public holidays in the afternoon and evening. Visitors can spend time with friendly cats, including Norwegian Forest Cats, and small dogs such as Chihuahuas and Pomeranians, and a pet parakeet greets guests at the door. As a breeder, the business raises and sells puppies and kittens, so it is not a rescue. It is a quiet, home-like space with a small number of animals rather than a large cafe; the cafe is also open on public holidays that fall on weekdays.
