I booked 1 hour with drink before I went there. Staff there were very friendly and they gave me many helpful advices about how to take care of cats. Before getting inside, they asked me to wash my hands to keep it clean for myself and for cats. Although they had many rules to follow, it was not hard and it was good for the quiet environment they wanted to keep. They also had introduction which I could read and know more about the cats which were rescued and staying in their house happily. The cats were cute and huge. It was easy for me to pet them because they were comfortable with that and allowed me to pet them. The drink was hot, smelled good and tasted nice. The view from the window was beautiful, too
View on GooglePeaceful and quiet place, especially in the evenings. Popular during school holidays in the day time. So if you prefer more space and quiet to yourself, evenings or early mornings will be your best bet, plus the cats will be more active during those times. Rates go from 1 hour and above. But to get bang for your buck, 3 hours/whole day pass will give you more time for them to familiarise and open up to you more. Sometimes, I even bring my work over to do it with the kitties. They're relatively friendly, considering the sensitivity of cats in general. If they don't like the interaction, they'll mostly simply move away instead of biting or scratching, which is good for kids. Approach slowly and gently, especially if there's a lot of ppl in the room who are vying for their attention at the same time because they may feel a little overwhelmed. If you're not sure, you can always ask the staff. Shop assistants and owners are very hospitable and helpful, checking in to make sure you're comfortable and if you need anything, especially if you have a hard time connecting with the cats. They'll show you how to get the cats' attention or how to play with them and provide with the toys to do so. If you have any questions on cat care, they'll be happy to answer you too. For food and drinks, it's good, even if a tad pricey, but expected of a cafe in the city area. I love their hot/cold tea options, and their Earl Grey Ice Cream Cookie especially. I just wish they sell hot food too, but they're strictly only desserts and drinks. So if you are hoping to have a meal, you need to have it somewhere else first before coming in. Make this place an after-meal/dessert hang out. They also have adorable merchandise both for felines and feline lovers. I got the crocheted paw coasters, which worked well for both hot and cold drinks. They engage local artists to design their merch and all cats are adopted from shelters. Support for both local artists AND cats! ♡
View on GoogleStaff were polite and friendly, shared about the cats and how we could interact with them. Cats were all soft and cute with a great view of the river by the windows! However, most of the cats were sleeping or were not very interactive at the time when I went at 6pm with around 10 customers in the cafe. Still a great experience with lots of food & beverage options and even card games to play with!
View on GoogleLoyal customer+1! Hands-down the best cat cafe I’ve ever been to. Having visited most of the cat cafes in Singapore, this is my top pick for the cafe views and the playful cats. Staff are really friendly and would share with you the little details about each furry friend!
View on GoogleVery chill place as long as there aren't noisy people..you can get drinks and cakes/tarts here. Cats are well taken care of, but customers have to understand that it is not a petting zoo and don't disturb the cats when they're sleeping, eating etc. I like the selection of souvenirs and cat-related merchandise. Staff are friendly and you can ask how to book for private event also
