Here at TSL, we’re lucky enough to have 2 resident cats – Pika and Jaymee. The duo roams our offices in search of head pats and belly rubs from anyone in need of a convenient cat-sized distraction from the daily grind.
If you find yourself in need of a similar release from the pressures of work or school, SGCatHouse is a cat cafe in Paya Lebar with kitties that are ready to deliver some super paws-itive vibes. We’re talking Ragdolls, Munchkins, and Shorthairs amongst other breeds.

Comprising a pet shop, cat cafe, groomer, and hotel for felines, the establishment is a one-stop shop for anyone who identifies as a cat person. Right now, they’ve got 9 different breeds for you to play with at their cat interaction space.
From chonky American and British Shorthairs to adorable Russian Blues, you’ll find cats with great purr-sonalities awaiting you. There are toys provided too, so you can tease and play with these well-cared for kitties to your heart’s content.

Guests are not allowed to feed the feline residents with outside food. But if you’re looking for treats to lure the cats, you can purchase cat feed for $1 from the counter.
Rates start at $9/hr, $15 for 2 hours, and $28 for an entire day filled with felines. You can even spring for a $65 pass that grants you 10 1-hour visits, valid for 6 months.
Entry into the cafe includes free-flow canned drinks from their choice of 15 beverage options.

The owners advise making a booking in advance to avoid long wait times, and to not use flash when taking photos with your new furry friends. Kids under 12 must be accompanied by an adult as well.
All cat “rooms” enjoy centralised air-conditioning.

Aside from offering the chance for customers to get up close and personal with their exotic cats, SGCatHouse also offers overnight stays. If you’re on the lookout for a place to house your cat for a few days, your beloved feline will be tended to by their staff with time slots allocated for both grooming and playtime. Cat hotel stays range from $50-$70/day.

Cats that could use a haircut can do so with their cat grooming services starting from $35. Btw, even doggos can get themselves groomed here from $30-$80, depending on their weight. If you’re seeking individual services like ear cleaning or nail clipping, those cost $10 per service.
Had a cat-astrophic week? Make plans for a cat-hartic day at SGCatHouse. You can get there by hopping onto Bus 40 from Aljunied MRT. We can’t guarantee that things will get better after petting a few cats, but at least you’ll fur-get about your troubles for a while.
