The Tenjin location of Neko Cafe Keurig opened in September 2009 as a companion facility to the original Daimyo store, operating on the same rescue and adoption mission while inhabiting a distinctly different physical space. This location occupies the fourth floor of the Jolis Building in Fukuoka's central Tenjin district and features loft-style (attic) inspired interior design, creating a vertically-oriented environment where rescued cats navigate catwalks and multiple height levels while visitors can observe from various vantage points throughout the space. The design notably incorporates expansive glass windows along one wall, framing seasonal views of the Kego Shrine's surrounding greenery and creating a contemplative backdrop to the cat interaction experience. The facility houses approximately 31 rescued cats (as of 2020), maintaining the same commitment to accepting animals with complex behavioral and medical backgrounds as the flagship Daimyo location.
Operating hours at Tenjin run from 11am to 8pm daily, year-round, with no closure days. Admission pricing mirrors the Daimyo location: ¥1,250 for 30 minutes or ¥1,500 for one hour, with pricing including unlimited soft drinks and snack access. The space maintains rigorous cleanliness standards and provides a relaxing environment where visitors can spend unrushed time with cats. Like the Daimyo store, staff demonstrate attentive, responsive caregiving behaviors—immediately addressing any behavioral concerns or stress signals displayed by cats, ensuring resident animals remain calm and content. Guest reviews emphasize both the spacious environment and the high quality of cat care visible through staff attentiveness and the evident bonds between cats and permanent staff members.
Guests frequently highlight the value proposition of the Tenjin location: affordable admission with extensive included amenities (fresh fruit juices, hot and cold beverages, pastries, and snacks), a peaceful setting for cat interaction, and the knowledge that their visit supports the rescue mission. Many reviewers explicitly note visiting to support the cafe's adoption and rescue work, with cats described as "fluffy and friendly" and "adorable." Some visitor comments acknowledge that certain cats display lingering stray behaviors (occasional litter box inconsistency), but note that staff address any incidents immediately and thoroughly. The combination of the loft aesthetic, natural window views, carefully selected rescued cat population, and welcoming staff creates a compelling visitor experience that directly communicates the cafe's commitment to demonstrating that rescued street cats can become confident, affectionate companions in proper circumstances.
