Maison de Moggy

Scotland's first cat cafe, Maison de Moggy in Edinburgh is a custom-built paradise for cats, owned by Laura and Jon who have raised all their feline residents from kittens. The cafe prioritizes feline welfare above all—cats have plenty of climbing and play spaces, cosy nooks to explore, and a separate private bedroom where they cannot be disturbed. A dedicated Cat Nanny ensures both cats and visitors have the best experience. The venue offers a delicious menu of teas, coffees, and freshly baked cakes prepared in a cat-free environment, all served in a warm, homely atmosphere.

Maison de Moggy is home to 12 carefully selected resident cats across diverse breeds: Maine Coons (Montague and Beatrice), Ragdolls (Genevieve and Didier), Norwegian Forest Cats (Nicolas and Florent), British Shorthairs (Bartholomew and Gilbert), and Oriental Shorthairs (Fleur and Maude). Every cat is an individual with distinct personality traits—some confident and sociable, others more laid-back and observant. Reviewers praised the knowledgeable, friendly staff who share detailed information about each cat, the beautiful well-cared-for felines, and the cosy, relaxing atmosphere. The playful, interactive cats clearly feel safe and loved. Visitors consistently mentioned wanting to take every cat home and highlighted excellent value despite premium pricing.
