What is a cat cafe?
“Chukotka” Cat Cafe is a unique project and a home for many adoptable cats.All cats are socialized and healthy. There are over 40 cats walking about the cat house, ready to purr and play with the visitors.
Things to do at the cat cafe
There is an abundance of entertainment aside from the cats in our cat cafe - 8-bit video games, wi-fi, self-service area with tea/coffee and a variety of sweets. We also have a children’s section with fun activities for kids of all ages.You can take any cat you like “to go” so their sweet face and cheerful purrs keep you happy at home.
Where do the cats come from?
“Chukotka” Cat Cafe evolved from the cat department of “Nadezhda” animal shelter.First, the cats are quarantined at the shelter where they receive all necessary veterinary care, after which they arrive at the cafe. The shelter is located in the basement of the same building where the cat cafe is and is also open for visitors.
Our cats get here for different reasons. Volunteers and shelter employees often pick them up on the street and it’s not always clear how they got there in the first place - they could have been dumped, lost or born there. Sometimes owners bring their cats to us, as they can no longer care for them due to new family member’s allergies, fights with other family pets, death of the original owner and other reasons. Some cats come to us from animal control or veterinary clinics where healthy cats are sometimes brought in for euthanasia or sick ones are dumped.
All our cats are spayed/neutered, vaccinated against viral infections and rabies, dewormed, deflead, and healthy. Cats are transferred to the cafe only after all necessary veterinary procedures have been completed.
Since opening it’s doors, the cat cafe has found new loving homes to over 150 cats!
