About Cat Living Shelter Cafe
Cat Living Shelter Cafe in Meguro represents an unusually comprehensive professional rescue operation spanning 28 years of animal welfare work. Located 30 seconds from Toritsu Daigaku Station in a dedicated two-floor salon space, the facility functions as professional rescue hub integrating adoption services, sanctuary care, concierge consultation, volunteer training (CAT LIVING ACADEMY), and lifetime support for seniors and ill individuals unable to continue cat care. The organization maintains multiple first-class animal handler licenses and emphasizes cat welfare as absolute priority over profit, refusing adoptions deemed unsuitable and providing unlimited post-adoption support.
Customer experiences emphasize professional care standards and personal attention from the owner. Reviewers highlighted the welcoming atmosphere, genuine animal advocacy evident in every decision, willingness to consult on adoption readiness, and transparent operational costs. The facility houses rescued cats from nationwide shelters, multi-cat hoarding collapses, and abandoned pregnant mothers. One reviewer noted initial concern visiting alone but appreciated the owner's genuine warmth and non-judgmental approach. The space reflects genuine rescue dedication—not Instagram-aesthetic but authentically cat-centered. Visitors describe feeling honored to support genuine animal welfare rather than commercial entertainment.
Admission pricing: ¥2,200 (1 hour) or ¥4,800 (3 hours) weekdays; ¥2,400/¥5,000 weekends. Private consultations cost ¥11,000/hour (consultants address adoption, surrender intake, and first-time owner guidance). Operating Monday, Thursday–Friday 12–8 PM; Saturday 11 AM–8 PM; Sunday 11 AM–7 PM (Tuesday is consultation-only, Wednesday closed), the cafe requires sock wear and ¥500 rescue fund contribution per person. All revenue supports rescue operations. Adoption process includes rigorous screening, home visit, 2-week trial, and lifetime follow-up. The organization prioritizes paired adoptions (siblings together) recognizing psychological stress of separation. Griffith animal hospital partnerships ensure comprehensive medical care.
