Must-Visit Cat Cafés for a Purrfect Day Out

Cat Cafés You Must Visit

Cat cafés are a wonderful combination of great company, cozy environments, and of course, feline friends. Here are five outstanding cat cafés that provide both memorable experiences and the highest standards of care for their cats.


Maison de Moggy – Edinburgh, Scotland

Maison de Moggy, Scotland’s first cat café, has captured the hearts of cat lovers since it opened its doors. Located in the heart of Edinburgh, the café is home to a delightful variety of feline residents. The cats roam freely around the beautifully designed space, which is filled with soft lighting, cozy corners, and comfortable furniture for both humans and cats to enjoy.

Maison de Moggy is known not only for its ambiance but for the exceptional care given to its resident cats. Each cat is treated as part of the family, with regular vet checks and ample space to play, rest, and socialize. The café emphasizes a stress-free environment, ensuring that the cats’ well-being is always a priority. This commitment to care is a major reason for its glowing reputation and high visitor ratings.

Maison de Moggy holds a special place in our hearts at Kitten Kaboodle. It’s where we first met the delightful, beautiful and cheeky Elodie Chauve, who inspired our journey into the world of Sphynx cats. Sadly, Elodie passed away on 31st August 2023, making her memory even more poignant for us. Her grace and charm left a lasting impact, and it was after meeting her that we adopted our own Sphynx, and founded Kitten Kaboodle in his honor.

Guests can book time slots to spend with the cats, and while you’re there, you can enjoy tea, coffee, or cake sourced from local Edinburgh bakeries. The café’s unique breed selection also gives visitors the opportunity to interact with cats they might not normally encounter. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a regular, Maison de Moggy offers a tranquil experience where both humans and cats feel right at home.
