Yafeng Music Cat Cafe
This location has permanently closed.
Yafeng Music Cat Cafe (雅風音樂貓咪中途咖啡廳) was a cat foster cafe in a lane off Muxin Road, Section 3, in Muzha, Wenshan District, Taipei, near Zhongshun Temple. Violinist Lin Hsin-yi opened it in December 2012 in a space first used as a band rehearsal room, combining music, coffee and rescue cats. It was run by the Yafeng Wangmiao stray animal care association she founded, whose foster and elderly-care homes held around 50 cats. Visits were by reservation; guests ordered drinks and spent time with cats waiting for adoption, and many of the cats were rehomed through the cafe. House rules included keeping drinks against the wall, putting phones and tablets away, and asking staff to open the door so cats could not slip out. The cafe has since closed, and the association continues its rescue work.

Reading Cat Garden
Taipei City1.3 mi / 2.1 km
Reading Cat Garden (讀貓園) is a cat foster home and adoption space on the third floor of a building on Xinglong Road in the Muzha area of Wenshan District, Taipei. The volunteer group behind it previously ran a foster cafe on Heping East Road and reopened in this smaller space in 2026. It is not a cafe with a kitchen: visitors pay an entry fee of NT$150 for two hours, which includes self-service snacks and drinks, and spend the time reading, playing chess or the piano, or resting among foster cats waiting for new homes. The cats come mainly from public shelters, and the group has rehomed more than 500 of them; anyone interested in adopting can ask the volunteers. Last entry is an hour before closing, it closes on public holidays, and extra rest days are announced each month. The second floor is a board game shop, and the door up to the third floor is at the back of the shared corridor, past the second-floor toilets. The room can be rented for small classes and events.

A few cats live on site and wander among the tables. Each guest orders at least one drink, and the menu runs to coffee, tea, juice and light snacks. It stays open late, until midnight and until 3 AM on Fridays and Saturdays, and because all seating is outdoors it may close early when it rains. Payment is cash only.

Cataholic Cat Café
Taipei City3.1 mi / 5.0 km
Cataholic (愛貓成癮) is a cat hotel with a small cafe on the second floor of a building on Zhuangjing Road in Taipei's Xinyi District, about a 10-minute walk from Taipei 101/World Trade Center MRT station. Its main business is boarding: visiting cats stay in private rooms with high ceilings, large windows and two 24-hour cameras, at NT$1,100 to NT$2,500 per cat per night, and the hotel has won Good Design and Golden Pin design awards. The cafe is kept separate from the hotel rooms, and the cats guests meet there are the two resident Bengal siblings that serve as the shop's cat managers, so it is a cafe with a pair of house cats rather than a room full of cats. Cafe visits are booked online, with a minimum spend of NT$300 per person for two hours, and children under 12 are not admitted. The menu runs to salads, croissant plates, coffee and desserts.
