Izawa Dessert is a cat cafe in the Heng Guan Building on Jalan Burma (Burma Road), a short walk from the centre of George Town, Penang. The spacious, cave-like interior is shared with a household of friendly, fluffy cats, including a short-legged white-and-grey favourite, who roam among the tables and get their own bowls at mealtimes. There is no entrance fee: each guest simply orders food or a drink. Shoes come off at the door, so bring socks, and the house rules are short and simple. The menu mixes Japanese-style meals such as omurice curry, teriyaki chicken sets and unagi with bingsu, snow ice and showpiece cakes like the salted egg yolk avalanche cake, plus smoothies and iced teas. The cafe describes itself as Muslim friendly, with no pork, lard or alcohol, and it stays open into the evening, which makes it an easy dinner stop for cat lovers.

Rendez by Meowchii is a vintage-styled cafe on Lorong Toh Aka in George Town's heritage quarter, Penang, run by the team behind Meowchii Cafe, which moved here from Butterworth. The ground floor is an ordinary cafe, while the cats live in their own room upstairs: around 25 of them, from rescued cats and kittens to breeds such as Abyssinians and curly-coated Selkirk Rex. To visit the cat room, either pay an RM25 entry fee that includes a drink, or spend at least RM25 per person on food and drinks downstairs. Keeping the dining area separate from the cats suits visitors who worry about hygiene, and the warm lighting and retro decor make the whole building a favourite for photos. The menu covers brunch and lunch plates, coffee, matcha, tiramisu, mochi brownies and pandan kaya treats, and card games are on hand for groups who want to linger.
