Animal Cafes in Tokyo Japan - Cat Cafe, Owl Cafe, Rabbit Cafe

Unusual pet cafes and animal cafes in Tokyo Japan

TL; DR watch our video on Youtube instead

Japan has more than just cat cafes now

There are now snakes cafes and bunny cafes

You can pet and drink coffee with bunnies, owls, cats, snakes, and iguanas (visit the subtropical cafe). Did I mention that there are hedgehog cafes now? 

Why animal cafes? For Japanese it is the healing effect, for travels is a priced selfie opportunity

Imagine taking selfies with barn owls. Reminded of Harry Potter. Psss, John, you're a wizard!

In a country where space is limited even for humans, pet ownership can be a far fetched dream. Animal cafes are used for de-stressing and healing. Do you know the Polar Bear Cafe anime? That's known as a healing anime Iyashikei (癒し系)

The animals have names!

Some owl names :  MR. Yamashita, Gorilla

Some cat names: 

The best part about petting an owl? It also enjoys tickling! Snuggle and gentle strokes. 

Visit bonus occasionally includes grooming, feeding, even administering medicines

Steps to enjoy : make an RSVP, grab a seat, select a drink, and pet an owl or rabbit or cat or snake or iguana

Strange facts - the owls are imprinted on humans shortly after birth

These animal cafes are in Harajuku, Akihabra, sprinkled all over Tokyo

Reservations highly recommended. Animal cafes are popular with hour long queues.

Logistics - $15 an hour with advanced advance reservation, actual petting time is 35 minutes of less, reservation includes one drink and also one souvenir (depends on the cafe)

Logistics - animals are for sale for serious buyers

Expectations - space is limited, the animals are more tranquil, chillaxing, even sleeping not a whole lot of action.

Expectation - space is constricted, some of the animals can appear sad. Space is extremely limited even for humans.
