Cat Cafes in Johor

Johor Bahru

KATE ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​​​​​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌⁠in the HOUSE is a cat cafe and cat shop on Jalan Mutiara Emas 10/2 in Taman Mount Austin, Johor Bahru, which opened its cat lounge in January 2026. Visitors are quickly surrounded by twenty or more cats of all sizes, from calm adults to lively kittens, most of them happy to be petted, and treats can be bought for feeding. It is one of the cheaper cat cafes in the city, but the menu is limited to drinks and light bites such as nuggets, so it is best to eat before you come. The business also sells cats and kittens and offers cat grooming, along with boarding for cats and small dogs. The owner and staff are friendly and patient, and happy to explain the personalities of the cats.

HOME ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​⁠by Tales of Paws is a large pet cafe on Jalan Serampang in Taman Sri Tebrau, Johor Bahru, with separate lounges for cats and dogs. The cat cafe is home to sociable breeds such as Ragdolls and British Shorthairs, many of which will settle onto visitors' laps without being bribed with treats, and the room is kept clean. The dog side is known for its corgis and bigger dogs, with timed sessions run by handlers who brief guests before the dogs come out, and even a pool. Admission is by time slot and includes a drink and ice cream; prices are higher than at most JB cat cafes, and there is a pet shop on site. It is a good choice for mixed groups where some prefer dogs and others cats. HOME is run by Tales of Paws, which also has a grooming shop in Taman Molek.

Memo ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌⁠Koice Pet Cafe is an animal cafe on Jalan Austin Heights 7/7 in Taman Mount Austin, Johor Bahru, a short walk from several other Mount Austin cat cafes. Cats share the space with a mix of other animals here: besides a dog enclosure, there is a cat room where guests can sit among five or six hairless Sphynx cats, a Persian, a British Shorthair, a Ragdoll and other friendly cats, some of which will actively compete for attention. Rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, hedgehogs and ducks complete the line-up, so it suits families with children who want to meet several kinds of animals in one visit. Guests can relax with a drink while the animals wander around them. The space is fairly compact and litter boxes sit in the animal areas, so visitors with allergies should take note.

IMIAOU ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌⁠CATFE is a newly opened cat cafe in the Eco Botanic neighbourhood of Iskandar Puteri, on Jalan Eko Botani 3/5. Around 18 resident cats, mostly young, playful and very well groomed, share the bright and spacious cafe with guests. No reservation is needed: walk in, order a drink, and stay to spend time with the cats. The menu focuses on specialty coffee, handcrafted beverages, teas and cakes, with no pork and no lard. The cafe describes itself as a cafe, not a playground: the cats feel safest when it is calm, so running and noisy play are not allowed, and it is not suitable for children under six. The space is kept exceptionally clean, with remarkably little fur or smell for a room full of cats, and the owners are friendly and happy to chat about each cat. It makes a peaceful stop after lunch elsewhere in Eco Botanic.

Enn ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌​‌⁠Cat Cafe is a homely, family-run cat cafe on Jalan Adda 3/1 in Adda Heights, Johor Bahru, that feels more like visiting a relative's house than a commercial venue. Its friendly, affectionate cats wander freely and happily demand to be petted, and some can be held, depending on their personality; one of the best known is Jebat, an enormous cat. Entry is RM15 per person, one of the lowest fees in the city, and the owners know their breeds well and enjoy explaining them to visitors. The kitchen serves hearty cafe food such as chicken chop with fries, spaghetti with meatballs, chicken wings, cheesy wedges and brownies with ice cream, and the cats are trained to leave diners alone. Enn also runs a cat hotel. Bookings are taken by WhatsApp, and it is wise to message before visiting.

Catzz ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​⁠Pavilion is a three-storey cat shop on Jalan Eko Botani 3/4 in Eco Botanic, Iskandar Puteri, with a cat petting area upstairs. The ground floor is a pet store selling cat food and supplies, while the upper floors house grooming, daycare and a boarding facility, plus a lounge where visitors can play with the shop's own cats. The resident cats are large, healthy and tame, and unusually keen to play with guests. Entry to the petting area is charged by the hour (RM25 per hour in 2024), and only simple drinks are available, so come for the cats rather than the food. The petting area has been open only on certain days in the past, so contact the shop before visiting. Ventilation upstairs can be stuffy on busy days, and members get a discount.
