NyankoDB has built a platform called "Oshi Neko Meets" that turns cat cafe cats into the stars of fan support culture, with the concept of "cats you can visit and support."
"That regular really loves our cat..." Now those fans can support their favorite cat even when they can't visit.
When fans spend on their "Oshi Cat," the revenue (minus a service fee) is distributed to your cafe. Part of the operating fees also goes toward activities to help rescue cats (planned).
Fans enjoy supporting their favorites, and their activity helps rescue cats. Fans, cafes, and cats — everyone wins.
Sound familiar?
The fan support (oshi-katsu) market in Japan is worth about 1 trillion yen (NyankoDB research, 2026). Idols, anime, VTubers... fan culture is now mainstream. Cat cafe cats can be "oshi" too. The system just hasn't been built yet.
When regulars can't visit for a while, there's no way to receive their support
Even when cat photos go viral on social media, it doesn't translate to revenue
No way to respond to fans who say "I can't visit but I want to support you"
Vet bills pile up, but in-store revenue alone has its limits
No visits means no revenue. That's been the common sense of cat cafes. But people who want to support your cats aren't limited to those who can visit. The system to convert that passion into revenue simply didn't exist until now.

Revenue Model

About NyankoDB
We love cat cafes and have been running info sites like the Cat Cafe Map and Cat Breeds Guide across Japan. With over 400 cafes listed, we wanted to create a better way to support cat cafes — and so this service was born.
