Do you like pets? Dogs, cats, birds, snakes, fish, crocodiles, whatever you have there. Yes? Then we are on the same page! Just like how we treat our family and friends, we also show love and care to our pets. In the first place, pets make our lives sweeter and meaningful so there’s not a reason not to pet one. We can’t just resist their cuteness. Right?
And talking about cats, they are definitely one of the most commonly petted animals. With some of the breeds having thick fur or none at all just like the sphynx cat, big or small in size, or having uniquely patterned coats or colored pair of eyes, what’s not to love with cats? This is why most of the households own a cat or even a dozen.
OR
No? Then at least you love good food?
Love either cats or good food or both? Great news for there is this restaurant in Cagayan de Oro which is regarded as the first cat-themed restaurant in the city. Named MEOW Resto, it is located along Corrales-Dolores Streets just right across FICCO.
More than a month old already as of this posting, MEOW Resto instantly captured the hearts of many Kagay-anons who are confessed cat lovers.

The resto has 2 separate closed rooms. One is mainly for dining with small tables and chairs, and the other room is where the cats’ room is located and is with 3 small tables. Either you want to only try their food, or take a peek at the cats, it depends on you.
The Cat Zone where the cats are housed is fully air-conditioned and carpeted, with a “poop” station located at the far corner. Cats of MEOW Resto are all toilet-trained. You’ll be required to leave an ID, read the House Rules, sign the waiver, and pay the Cat House Maintenance Fee of P20 good for 10 minutes.
Before you can enter the cats’ room, you need to change your footwear with readily provided sandals as part of keeping the cleanliness of the cats’ room. And upon entering the room, you need to have your hands sprayed with rubbing alcohol as part of the MEOW Cat House Reminders. Other house reminders include in the point of view of cats:
- Silence please
- Don’t Disturb us when we are asleep/eating
- Don’t carry us
- Don’t pull our tails
- Don’t play using your hand/foot, use cat toys
- Don’t feed us anything
- Take picture without flash
