“Mofumofuan” in Minamichita-cho, Chita-gun, Aichi Prefecture is an inn with facilities designed for people staying with cats, and two resident cats. President Torakichi and Vice President Chatora are introduced as official staff.
Although this is a facility that mainly welcomes guests traveling with their own cats, the official guide says, “Would you like to be healed by a resident cat?” and also discloses their personalities and how to interact with the cats. On this site, we classify the inn as B as an inn where you can interact with the inn’s resident cat. However, since the two cats are not always present, it is essential to check in advance if you are looking for resident cats.
President Torakichi and Vice President Chatora
According to Official Staff Introduction, Torakichi is wary at first, but becomes affectionate and rubs against people once familiar with them. Chatora is introduced as his younger brother.
Interaction here differs from a cat café where you can immediately hold a cat. Torakichi is cautious until familiar with you, so guests need to wait quietly. The official information also notes that the 2 cats are busy and may not always be present at the inn.
If you would like to meet the cat, please inquire about the schedule before making a reservation; however, the schedule may change depending on the cat’s physical condition or circumstances. It is important not to look for them or reach into their hiding places when you cannot see them.
Facilities designed for stays with cats
Mofumofuan’s charms include a catwalk on the lobby wall, escape prevention measures, cages, cat toilets, and food bowls. This configuration makes it easy for people traveling with their cats to consider luggage and safety.
There are guest rooms 101 and 102, and a BBQ house is also available. Please check the reservation conditions for available rooms, private rental range, and facilities. Even if the inn provides cat supplies, it’s a good idea to bring extra items to help the cat cope with changes in the environment, such as the cat’s usual food, medicine, comforting blankets, and used cat litter.
Usage method different from general inns
Official information states that, in principle, cleaning and changing of sheets, including common areas, will not be done during your stay. Rather than a full-service hotel, this inn is more like renting a place where you can stay safely with the cat.
Before making a reservation, be sure to check not only the price, but also the cleaning, trash, check-in method, what to do if a cat makes a mess, and how to use the escape-prevention door. It is best to inquire with the inn about current operations, whether it is possible to stay without bringing your cat along, or if you can request a meeting with the resident cat.
Things to check before making a reservation
- The two resident cats are not guaranteed to be present, and there is no guarantee that you will be able to meet them.
- We cannot confirm that the cat will visit the guest room.
- When bringing your cat with you, please check the latest conditions such as vaccinations and health status.
- Do not rely too much on the escape prevention equipment inside the inn, and be careful when opening and closing the door.
- Cleaning and sheet changing are different from regular hotels.
- Please confirm BBQ usage and rental equipment when making a reservation.

It is suitable for people who understand that the inn’s cats are not always present and that the operation is more self-service, and who can protect the safety of the cats themselves.
