Texas Cat Cafes

How much do y’all know about Texas cat cafes?  We’re fixin to tell you all y’all need to know and go. Texas is home to eleven of the most charming cat cafes you will find anywhere. Way out in West Texas, you’ll also find an exceptional thrift store + cattery tucked away in Alpine.

Each Texas cat cafe is unique and wonderful. Texas is where you’ll find  the first cat cafe in the country located in a mall. What a brilliant idea, right? How about a cat cafe with cat boarding facility attached (Texas has two!)? And only Texas has a cat cafe with their very own theme song. You can also visit a cat cafe in a cheery  bright yellow house that feels like home in every way? You’ll find all this and more in the Lone Star State.

Texas’s eleven cafes are spread evenly across the state from the Dallas metroplex to heart of Texas in Austin, and south to Houston. Not surprisingly, the Dallas and Houston metro areas are home to the majority of state’s cat cafes.

The southwestern region of the country itself has historically been pretty light on cat cafes. By historically, we mean of course the short history of cat cafes in the United States, dating back to the olden times of 2014. But now all four states bordering Texas have cat cafes. There are still many long dusty miles between sunny cat cafe destinations, leaving many locations in an all hat, no cats situation. Sounds like opportunity!
