About Bedford Cat Café
Bedford Cat Café re-opened June 30, 2025 under new management, continuing the tradition of offering relaxation, quality refreshments, and cuddles from rescue cats. All residents are rescued by partner Peterborough Cat Rescue; notably, the cafe prioritizes disabled and special-needs cats, providing homes to animals that desperately need them. Managers Brenda Sackett operates under Animal Welfare Licence (LIC/2/22/07, Bedford Borough Council). Current resident cats include Boo, Bumble, Camino, Etham, Lando, Olive, Sugar, Tang, Waffle, Willow, and Ziggy—each with distinct personalities and stories. Expanding beyond the cafe experience, Bedford launched three new projects: Table Top Games evenings (Thursdays, starting July 30, partnering with Hobby Hive), Cat Yoga (monthly, £20/person), and Cat Grooming services (Tuesdays/Thursdays from August). Bookings recommended especially weekends and school holidays.
Reviewers emphasize excellent staff knowledge, genuine cat welfare focus, and clean facilities. An 8th-birthday celebrant reported the manager went "above and beyond" accommodating dietary allergies (gluten-free available). Cats are "so well loved and content," described as adorable with unique personalities (one reviewer particularly loved Lando, the Norwegian Forest cat). One guest enjoyed "cream tea" (afternoon tea service) and appreciated the peaceful atmosphere. Visitors note staff explain each cat's story and background.
Pricing: £10 per person admission (included in all bookings). Afternoon Tea £30/person (standard, gluten-free, vegan options; 48-hour notice required; email bcc@jns.me.uk). Birthday Parties £200 (2-hour visit, includes entry, meals, drinks, cat ears, tattoos, dedicated staff; requires 7 days notice; capacity up to 4 adults & 6 children under 12, or 2 adults & 8 children 12+). Cat Yoga £20/person (1-hour session + 30 mins refresh/cat time + free water). Table Top Games £10/person Thursdays 4–8pm. Kids (ages 6-10) need proof of age; under 6 not admitted. 1 adult per 2 children under 12. Group bookings (6+) require advance discussion. Open daily except some Mondays in spring.
