About us

Cat Café Budapest opened in 2013, not so long after the concept of cat café arrived to Europe. Cat Café Budapest offers you a comfortable place to pet, play and socialize with our lovely cats, while relaxing with a cup of coffee. It’s a pawsome place for cat lovers to enjoy and interact with cats.

You can choose from our wide range of hot beverages, sodas and alcoholic beverages, as well as cakes and sandwiches.

You also have the opportunity to organize your private events here; birthdays or other. Our staff will stand ready, and our guidelines will help to make the most out of your visit here.

We are looking forward to see you, who likes cats and is ready for an extraordinary experience!

Good to know things about the Café’s cats:

Every one of our cats are:

spayed or neutered.
negatively tested for infectious cat diseases.
vaccinated and given antiparasitic medications regularly.
under a continuous control by our vets, and at any given problem all the needed treatments are granted (e.g.: dental interventions).
only and exclusively are fed by the best quality pet food according to their individual dietary limitations.

Good to know things about cats overall:

Cats need plenty sleep, which can add up to 20 hours a day. As nocturnal animals, they sleep mostly throughout the day. So, when you see the cats sleeping only, do not be alarmed, they are not sedated, they are just taking their much-needed naps. This is why we ask you not to bother sleeping cats as it can affect their health negatively eventually. Please, let them rest peacefully when they need it.

Cats are incredibly sensitive to loud noises or speech, and unexpected movements. Because of this they might run away or accidentally scratch you. But please keep in mind, they are not attacking, they just feel insecure. Make sure to approach cats carefully and with love, this way they will be more than happy to interact with you. They are overly sensitive to strong lights as well, so please turn off the flash of your phones and cameras.

Cats need to be held properly as are delicate to incorrect touches, please, do not try to pick them up. If you would like to get a closer connection with one of your cats, please ask our staff to help you in bonding with the cat.

It is crucial to feed our cats with proper food only. Please do not give them any food items we sell, nor things you brought from home. You might have the best intention, but they can get sick when not followed their dietary restrictions.

Although cats are very curious animals, they are not always in a playful mood, they might not want to play when you wish to. You might be one of the many who wishes to play the same game, but the cat is bored with it already. Cat’s attention is hard to be kept on so, please, be patient and accept the rejection, they are not upset with you, they just need some rest or something else to do.
