What to expect
Kichijoji is one of Japan’s most desirable neighborhoods, known for its relaxed atmosphere and charming streets.
Here, you’ll find a long-established café featuring capybaras and rescue cats. It is one of the few places in Japan where you can interact closely with both animals in one space.
The cats were rescued and now live here under dedicated care. With their calm and gentle nature, the capybaras peacefully coexist with the cats, creating a unique and heartwarming environment.
Take photos, relax, and enjoy spending time with these adorable animals—just like being at home.
A portion of your visit also supports rescue cat activities and helps protect animals in need.
