Chapristea, Cat café in central Toulouse, France
Chapristea is a cat café located at 4 Rue Jules Chalande in Toulouse, spanning two floors. The space serves tea, coffee, and light meals while visitors spend time with the resident cats throughout the building.
Chapristea opened in 2015 as one of the first cat cafés in the Occitanie region of France. The venue was founded with partnerships in place to connect visitors with local animal welfare efforts from its earliest days.
The cats at Chapristea come from partnerships with local animal rescue organizations, reflecting the café's commitment to adoption and welfare. Visitors interact with these animals in a setting that promotes compassion for cats in need.
The café operates daily with varying hours depending on the day of the week. Advance booking is recommended, particularly if you plan to order food or visit during busier times.
Several of the cats have distinct personalities and preferred areas within the space where they spend most of their time. Regular visitors often recognize these patterns and develop bonds with specific animals.
