While most people leave therapy sessions happy and relaxed, pet cafe-goers leave the healing session sad and worked up – the complete opposite of what we’d like to achieve. But that’s normal. Nobody wants to leave after meeting the cutest, furriest cats and dogs of pet cafes.
These 10 pet cafes in Malaysia will see you exit its doors drenched in tears, unwilling to part with the cutest bunch of friends you’ve ever met. It’s an addictive therapy session that you’ll never be cured of!
Clawset Cafe is a place for freelancers to cozy up and get some work done, as they offer comfortable corners and free Wifi connection. Your furkid can come along too! At the same time, there’s a pack of cute pomeranians to keep you company during your break led by Mr Dollar, the friendly but grumpy-looking cat.

GG was a stray, before being rescued from abuse to become a part of Kopicat cafe’s clowder of cats. A desperate plea by GG’s rescuer on Facebook was promptly answered by Wan, the owner of Kopicat, who then sheltered it. Formerly Coffee Cottage, the cafe is home to many rescued cats that you can play with in the special interactivity room.

Huskies require sensitive treatment – because of their stubborn nature, time and patience are needed to nurture these energetic pets into loyal furkids.

The cafe houses purebred Siberian Huskies for adoption, for dog lovers to give them a forever home when ready for the responsibility.

The Hound is a spacious cafe with a rustic charm for your dogs to explore. It’s a popular gathering spot for pet-lovers with their little ones in tow. The interior design is simple but fun – the humble decor isn’t jarring for dogs who get easily excitable so they’ll (usually) remain calm throughout the experience!
Those coming without a furry friend in hand can expect Cookie, the cafe’s cute Beagle host, to greet them at the entrance. The cute house pet may be shy, but it loves visitors so don’t be afraid of getting close. In the menu, delicious bakes are aplenty for purchase, like the Lemon Curd Tart, Chocolate Banana Cake with Caramel Buttercream and Raspberry Almond Cake.

As a pet owner, you’ll need to be responsible for your feline’s/canine’s welfare as well as upbringing. It’s like nurturing a child! But unlike kids, pets don’t react the same way when in distressed so owners need to be extra sensitive to understand their needs. Bring them to pet cafes – they are outlets to let loose and assume their natural behaviour.
As a pet-less animal enthusiast, hangout with the furry friends at these cafes and shower them with love and attention. Be rewarded when they take a liking to you (or your scent)!
