Cat House Golonyan
Kuroishi, Aomori
Cat House Golonyan is a rescue cat cafe in Nakagawa, Kuroishi, in a blue building next to a Chinese restaurant, with a kitchen car on the ground floor. It was opened in April 2024 by a young local founder to help rescued cats find homes. More than 20 rescue cats live here, including kittens, and most of them can be adopted; the cafe also takes part in regular adoption events. Visits are booked in 30-minute, one-hour or two-hour blocks, and reservations can be made online or by phone, with same-day bookings by phone only. The last entry is 30 minutes before closing. The cafe opens later on weekdays than at weekends and on holidays, and it is closed on Mondays and some Tuesdays. A cat hotel for boarding is run alongside the cafe.
