Cat Cafes in Seogwipo, Jeju

Seogwipo, Jeju

Jeju Cat World is a large outdoor and indoor cat sanctuary cafe in Namwon-eup, Seogwipo, on the south-east side of Jeju. It began in 2022 when the owners started caring for a few street cats, and it has grown into a forested site of about 2,500 pyeong where around 120 cats move freely between indoor rooms and the woods. Many of the cats were rescued from difficult situations, including cats facing euthanasia, street cats and cats with disabilities that struggled to find homes. Visitors pay an entry fee and can buy coffee and other drinks at the cafe, then walk among the cats in the forest or relax indoors. From Jeju Airport, bus 131 runs to the Namwon terminus, about 450 metres away.
