Cat Cafes in Thailand

Bangkok

Catsanova ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​​​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌⁠is a non-profit cat shelter and playroom on Sathu Pradit Road in Bang Kho Laem, Bangkok, where every cat is up for adoption. Founded in 2019, it has found homes for over 100 cats. Visits are by reservation only: for a 200 baht entry fee, which goes towards the cats' care, a cat sitter leads a tour of four rooms of about an hour and introduces each cat. The cats are kept in separate rooms by temperament and health, so shy cats, unwell cats and sociable ones each have their own space, and they are fed premium food. Adopters are matched with a cat, and the shelter delivers the cat to its new home.
