Taipei Pet-Friendly Day Trip ItineraryCat Cafes, Photoshoots, Metalworking: A Full Day of Healing Companionship

If you're looking for a special connection, it's not just at the Matchmaker Temple—you can also find it at 転運棧! Come find your purr-fect match with a feline friend!

Step into 転運棧 and you're greeted by the aroma of simple meals and pour-over coffee, along with the incredibly therapeutic presence of cats! The cats here are extremely friendly, roaming freely among guests and corners of the venue. It's clear they are well-cared for, and when one curls up on your lap for a cuddle, even non-cat lovers will feel their hearts melt. The dining time is approximately two hours, and all cats are available for adoption. Who knows, you might just form a special bond with one during your visit!

Cat cafes can be a second stop! For our next destination, we walked to the nearby Neko coffee 貓珈, a timed cat cafe where your "healing index" refreshes every second. The pricing is a minimum drink purchase of $90 for unlimited refills, plus NT$40 for every 10 minutes on weekdays, and NT$50 on weekends. Stay for 100 minutes and you'll even get a discount. On weekdays, you can also ask staff for a hand stamp to allow free re-entry.

At Neko coffee, you can relax on a bed or sofa with over a dozen cats. The venue also features massage chairs, manga, and a Nintendo Switch. Since it operates on a walk-in basis, there's often a queue on weekends, so cat lovers should plan to arrive early.

CHUN3 Studio offers a modern Korean-style photography space for solo pet portraits and pet-and-owner sessions. The photographers are excellent at guiding subjects, and you can view the shots on a monitor in real time, ensuring you and your furry friend capture beautiful salon-quality photos.

On the day of your shoot, we recommend arriving 5-10 minutes early to check in. Please bring your pet's leash, carrier, and a pet diaper or waste bag. Some packages include hair and makeup services for owners, as well as a dedicated proofreader to confirm image details and handle post-production editing. This ensures both efficiency and quality, with same-day photo pickup, adding another cherished memory with your beloved pet!

After your pet photoshoot, head to the nearby Dine in cafe for afternoon tea! The retro dark green decor, accented with plants and flowers, creates an instantly warm yet stylish atmosphere. They offer a wide selection of healthy and delicious meals; we highly recommend the Thai Hot and Sour Seafood Macaroni, and their signature "Wild Garden" dish. Both are flavorful and layered, yet light and refreshing, so you won't feel weighed down. Plus, the portions are generous, so even those with a big appetite will leave satisfied!

Turn your pet's unique paw print or nose print into a cherished piece of jewelry you can keep forever! Twosevenths' Ermao Yin pet print jewelry workshop sends you a material kit in advance, so you can easily collect your furry friend's print—be it a nose or paw—with near 100% success by following the kit's simple instructions. Once collected, just bring the print to the workshop to transfer it onto your chosen jewelry piece, and voilà!

This isn't just for cats and dogs; if you want to carry any pet's unique mark with you forever, you can discuss the feasibility and details with the instructor beforehand. While we can't stop time, we can transform precious imprints into tangible keepsakes, creating an eternal memory!

If you're traveling but can't bear to leave your feline companion behind, 愛貓成癮 ("Cat Addiction") is a combined cat hotel and café near Taipei Medical University in Xinyi District. The independent accommodation is located on the second floor, ensuring a safe and quiet stay. The entire venue operates by reservation only, offering 16 loft-style rooms, including options with floor-to-ceiling windows, abundant sunlight, and tranquil views. Each room features independent heating and air conditioning, a medical-grade air purifier, and a vertical cat tree to satisfy your cat's natural climbing instincts.

Each room can accommodate up to three cats and includes 24-hour CCTV monitoring and dedicated playtime. Cat butlers provide daily play, grooming, and status updates, carefully respecting each cat's personality. From pheromone diffusers upon arrival to thoughtful reminders to bring familiar items, every detail ensures your furry friend enjoys a relaxing vacation, giving owners peace of mind.
