Cat Cafes in Ichikawa, Chiba

Ichikawa, Chiba

Iyashi Biyori Gyotoku is a rescue cat cafe combined with a massage salon on the third floor of a building about one minute on foot from Gyotoku Station on the Tokyo Metro Tozai Line in Ichikawa. Its cats include strays rescued in Chiba City and Funabashi, former community cats from Gyotoku and cats from an elderly owner's multi-cat household. The shop is a registered volunteer adoption partner of the Funabashi public health centre, and adoptions are arranged with staff after a meeting to discuss conditions. Visits are charged per 30 minutes or per hour, with a small weekend surcharge, 10-minute extensions and a weekday free-time option. No food or drinks are served, but water is available. No reservation is needed, the room holds up to six people, and children of elementary school age and older may visit with a guardian. The cat cafe is closed on Tuesdays.
