Seattle might be a city full of dog lovers, but it’s also a haven for feline fanatics — we even have our own annual cat convention.
Cats have also infiltrated several of our most-loved local businesses. Here’s where you can find some feline friends working around the clock to make your day.
Panama Hotel and Tea House | 605 S. Main St., Chinatown-International District
Give a chin scratch to Miu-Miu, the cat that likes to hang out at this historic building and cafe in Seattle’s Japantown.
The Whole Cat and Kaboodle | 202 Kirkland Ave., Kirkland
This pet store offers services for cats including grooming, boarding, food + toys, plus a lounge full of adoptable kitties you can snuggle — and maybe take home.
Twice Sold Tales | 1833 Harvard Ave., Capitol Hill
This maze of a bookstore is stacked full of well-priced used titles + a family of resident cats — just don’t bother Buster while he eats (he takes his food very seriously).
Seattle Meowtropolitan | 1225 N. 45th St., Wallingford
This cat cafe was Seattle’s first when it opened in 2015. Stop by for beverages + pastries, kitty-themed merch, and adoptable cats from Regional Animal Services of King County in the lounge.
Ophelia’s Books | 3504 Fremont Ave. N., Fremont
Peruse the shelves of this secondhand bookstore for eclectic titles and keep an eye out for some sneaky pals — this spot has plenty of nooks and crannies for its live-in cats.
Neko Cat Cafe | 519 E. Pine St., Capitol Hill
Stop by for a drink or attend one of the cafe’s cat-tastic events, just don’t forget to pay your respects to the real owners of the establishment — the residents + adoptables in the Cat Room.
