Kahului, Hawaii
Cat Cafe Maui is a rescue cat lounge on the second floor of Queen Ka'ahumanu Center in Kahului, near Kahului Airport. Founded by Moriah Diamond, it opened in August 2022 as the first cat cafe on Maui and is run with the nonprofit Maui Cat Rescue in partnership with the Maui Humane Society. Visitors book a session of about 50 minutes in the cat lounge, which is entered through a separate door, and get complimentary coffee or tea and wifi. Walk-ins are accepted when space allows. Everyone signs a waiver, one adult must accompany every two children under 15, and clean socks are required, with cat-print pairs sold in the gift shop. All cats are adoptable, more than 1,000 have found homes, and the Fly Hawaii Cat program matches travelers with cats flying to adopters on the mainland. Events include cat yoga, kitty bingo, movie nights and sound baths.
