Meet The Cats and Kittens for adoption
Our cats and kittens are the stars of the show here at Lady Dinah's Cat Cafe in Bethnal Green, London!
All of our cats and kittens are rescue cats, coming from all walks of life. Our goal is to aid in socialising young felines to be confident, happy cats, and to be a fulfilling, fun and nurturing long-term foster home until they are successfully re-homed. When you visit our cafe, you are visiting cats and kittens for adoption. If you fall in love with someone during your visit, you can apply to adopt them!
At our cat cafe, we take rescue cats in directly. Our mission is to reduce the burden on shelters and for this reason, we usually take in animals that shelters have turned away. In 2024, Cats Protection reported that there was a 30% increase in animal abandonment and we ourselves have seen a sharp increase in the number of cats we've been asked to take in. Thanks to your visits, purchases and donations, we are able to cover the preventative medical care, labour and necessities for the cats we can take in, and can pay our staff a liveable wage to give these animals the best of care. Your support is invaluable and we are delighted to be able to welcome cat lovers from all around the world to dine with our cats.

We keep them with us for a little while rather than rapidly rehoming them, to help ensure a calm and safe space for animals and guests. This also allows us plenty of time to ensure a perfect match with their new family and undertake rigorous rehoming checks to make sure everyone is happy - our success rate for cat and kitten adoption is 99.99% - only one cat has ever been returned to us due to being an unsuitable match.
When we do offer our cats and kittens for adoption, we keep in touch with their families long after the cats have been adopted, and often keep up with them on social media.
Our residents’ behaviours are constantly monitored by our team of trained cat carers, who are experts in determining when they are ready to move on from café life. We rehome our cats one at a time and give very application careful consideration. We will rehome cats and kittens to indoor and outdoor homes, depending on each cat's personality and preferences.
