Love cats and coffee? You’re in for a treat. We’ve rounded up all the cat cafes in Texas, and we’ve included the addresses, opening hours, and everything else you need to know (regularly updated).

Let’s take a “paws” and explore them all!

 

These are all the cat cafes in Texas!

 

9 Whiskers Lounge in Katy

 

While the lounge works with rescue organizations and has adoptable cats, it also maintains a substantial group of resident felines that are permanent members of the lounge. Those residents include Ragdolls, Maine Coons, Scottish Folds, Munchkins, a Sphynx, a Russian Blue, and Siamese cats.

Katy itself is also worth more than a quick cat cafe stop. You’re close to Katy Asian Town, which has become one of the strongest Asian food destinations in the Houston region. If you visit 9 Whiskers, pairing it with an afternoon of eating your way through the surrounding area makes more sense than treating it as a standalone destination.

 

  • Address: 9 Whiskers Lounge, 510 S Mason Rd Suite H1, Katy, TX 77450, USA.
  • Opening hours: Monday, 01:00 pm – 05:00 pm. Friday to Saturday, 01:00 pm – 06:00 pm. Sunday, 01:00 pm – 05:00 pm. Closed on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.
  • Prices: $18 for 1 hour.
  • Reservations: There’s a maximum capacity of 20 visits per hour, so it’s best to reserve in advance.

The Bubble Cat Cafe in Denton

The real advantage is the location. Denton has one of the most distinctive downtown squares in Texas, plus a strong live-music scene that feels noticeably different from Dallas or Fort Worth.
