2Pm Cat is a compact cat cafe in Shanghai's Huangpu district on Chang Le Lu. Also known as Gogo Neko or Afternoon Cat, the cafe uses a multi-floor setup: guests order on the first floor, eat and drink on the second floor, then visit the cats on the third floor, where food and drinks stay out of the cat area. The experience is simple and focused, pairing coffee with dedicated playtime among resident cats that enjoy toys and interaction. Its pink signage and neighboring storefronts can make it easy to miss at first glance, but the layout gives the cats a separate space while keeping refreshments nearby. 2Pm Cat is best for visitors who want a quick, low-key feline break in central Shanghai rather than a large lounge-style cafe.

Cat Eyes猫咪咖啡馆 is an apartment-style cat cafe in Shanghai's Jing'an district, tucked inside Jiafa Mansion at 129 Datian Road near the Shanghai Natural History Museum. The cafe sits on the 17th floor, with a gated parking-lot entrance and elevator access that make it feel more like visiting a private lounge than a street-front shop. Inside, guests can settle into a cozy, cat-forward room with books, games, toys, hot and cold drinks, cake, and a few light dishes. The resident cats are the main draw: a friendly mix of around a dozen cats, many affectionate and playful. Prices can run higher for drinks, and access may depend on staff being available, so calling ahead is sensible. Outside cats are not allowed; the experience centers on Cat Eyes' resident cats.

Cat-cafe Bliss is a small, Japanese-style cat cafe in Shanghai's Xuhui district at Lane 8, 1 Taiyuan Road, near Fenyang Road. Set above street level, it has a quiet, house-like arrival: ring the bell, wait to be greeted, change into slippers, and head upstairs into a calm cat room. The mood is delicate and low-key, better for slow green tea, dark chocolate cake, and gentle time with resident cats than for a busy cafe stop. Its compact size and soft atmosphere make it especially suited to visitors who want a peaceful break in the Former French Concession area. Call ahead to confirm access and current hours, since entry depends on staff greeting guests. Outside cats are not allowed; the visit centers on Cat-cafe Bliss's resident cats.
