You are invited to a Private Retreat created exclusively for you.
Hidden in a quiet Kyoto alley, a traditional Japanese townhouse is reserved only for your group. This peaceful home is where uniquely spirited rescued cats live calmly and safely, away from crowds and noise.
Time moves slowly here.
Sharing the space quietly with the cats becomes a personal chapter of your journey — a moment of rest, reflection, and presence that lingers as a lasting memory.
We operate as an ethical Private Retreat that places the dignity of cats above all else.
All the cats here are rescued cats who have overcome difficult pasts and now live happily at their own pace. They are never treated as entertainment, and interaction is never forced. Each cat chooses how to spend their time.
This Private Retreat is designed for travelers who value ethical choices, tranquility, and authenticity, and who feel discomfort with places that use animals as attractions.
Within this hidden retreat, you can rest your mind and experience Japan’s mindful tea ceremony.
Your visit directly supports the cats’ happy, ongoing lives.
