That's what will never go out of fashion - it's kindness!!! A very cozy place, incredibly polite and kind people from the staff. Seals are a miracle! Sweet buns🤗
Yes, there is a smell, but these are small things. The guys are doing a great job, for this only respect, respect and only respect!

I do not recommend visiting. Divorce for money. The ticket costs -20 Br for adults and 15 br for a child. There is nothing to look at, all the walls are covered with children's drawings. I saw 3 cats and a dog. There were about 8 people. There was nowhere to turn around. There is a room to drink coffee/tea. It's dirty, it feels like they've made a "museum" out of a communal apartment.
Usually such an institution is called an anti-cafe or kotokafe, but not a museum. And such establishments are always clean and tidy.

The price is slightly too high for such an institution IMHO, for two adults and a child - 49byn (by the way, it is cheaper in the WWII museum). People who perceive odors should avoid this place. Cats are all stressed out in principle (there is little room, of course). Creativity is good, implementation is lame. + For a good cause (you can take any cat with you - they are all "brooches"). In general, a place for people who do not have the opportunity to pet or "feel" cats or cats, as well as children who are not allowed to have a cat at home. If you are one of the above-mentioned, go in

Suitable for children and cat lovers. My children were looking for the director of the Donut there, while my wife and I quietly walked around the Upper Town.

Cool museum. The children liked it very much. You can play walking, draw your cat on paper and stick it on. there's a huge collection of drawings there. Cats are calm, give themselves to be stroked, climb on their knees, there is even a small cafe where you can drink tea, eat goodies. If desired, the cat can be picked up from the museum. We were there for a long time. The delight is complete

It's a good place from the point of view of the idea, caring people work there, but the room is unsuccessful: very narrow corridors, cramped, insufficiently ventilated. The seals and exhibits are, of course, beautiful.

This is not a museum. Rather a cat cafe, but you need to take into account that there is not a very good smell and not all cats look healthy. This is partly due to the fact that they immediately say that cats are taken from the street for overexposure, they are looking for owners, and they are treated and vaccinated. This may be the reason for the bad smell. On the one hand, it's good, they work as a shelter, but you could invest more in your business, connect more charity. It is possible to keep new animals temporarily somewhere else (I have seen options with glass walls), to learn from the experience of other cats.
There are several paintings/prints from the museum and several cabinets with various figurines. It is more aimed at spending time with cats.

There are a lot of cats, a lot of creativity, any visitor can cuddle cats and draw a picture, of which there are a lot, it is interesting to walk around and examine the creativity of people of different ages and from different cities not only in Belarus.

I didn't like it. It doesn't look like a museum. I feel sorry for the seals - the children are dragging them, they are not allowed to hide, they are not allowed to eat - I had to make a remark, since there was no staff.

It's a pity we didn't read the reviews. The stink, the dirt. Layers of dust on the shelves. The admin with dirty sneakers offers to spray everyone's hands. What are the prices for, just a dirty attic with cats. It stinks of piss and the clothes smell. Sanitary and epidemiological station is needed here

The institution is in a state of "complete nightmare", cats just lie in a half-dead state almost all day, the smell is simply terrifying, a cat was found near the "cafe zone", which in its condition looked more like dead than alive. The museum is located under the roof, can you imagine how hot it is there? So we didn't notice a single bowl of water for cats, but we noticed a wonderful "cat's entrance" fragrance that starts right from the first floor (the museum is located on the third). We were also amazed by the bowls of food, where there is just a huge mountain of food. The passability of this "beautiful" place is probably sufficient, after all, the center of Minsk, so I suspect they should have had funds for normal ventilation, food and organization of space, but they have gone somewhere.
The only plus of the museum is the person looking after it / the cashier, a very nice man, thanks to him for a mini-excursion into what is happening here.
To sum up: a nightmare and a horror, animals literally need to be rescued from there, because they live in such conditions that you would not wish this on anyone.

The owners of this museum are doing a really good deed: they give shelter to homeless cats, so they are undoubtedly 5 stars.

It's funny, interesting, and emotional... Creative approach in the design. There is hot tea, cookies, which is important in the winter cold. 💁♀️
Seals can be petted, there are several breeds. 👌😁 But, there are very few of them. 🤷♀️ I would recommend getting pets.

The best museum!!! There are a lot of seals, picked up, cured and ready to be attached. You can draw a cat and leave your drawing in the gallery. The smell is a little confusing, but the staff keeps the place clean and takes good care of the animals. You can have tea and coffee. There is a toilet, benches, rooms where you can retire with a cat, play, pet. I advise everyone!!!

To be honest, more was expected. The price does not justify the quality. It is clear that the money for the ticket goes to feed the cats, but somehow it is still not pleasant. There is just a terrible smell of cat urine, the animals themselves look tired. And besides the cats themselves, there is nothing to look at. It looks more like a shelter than a museum. The museum worker inside me is crying 😅

A great idea, the implementation is weak. The seals are wonderful, but they are clearly not very comfortable there. At the same time, 15 rubles are charged for admission from adults. Guys, you are doing a very good job, but still, make the life of fluffy guests at least a little more comfortable... It's a pity to look at them...

We were "lucky" to look into this museum somehow.... I immediately remembered the days when I was sick with a crown and did not feel the smells ... When I entered, I immediately felt the stunning "aroma" of a cat's toilet, chilling to tears. Yes, the idea is cool, the idea is cool, but it would also be cool to keep it clean. They offer tea with sweets, but it is unclear how it can be drunk in such conditions? Yes, there are seals who mark the territory, but I think for the money that they pay at the entrance, they could be castrated. Hands are disinfected at the entrance, but after visiting the museum you will not wash off the smell. I don't understand how people work there and at the same time smile and cheerfully greet visitors. We saw only 4 seals, and it stank like all 24 …

The first thing we visited in Minsk was the cat Museum. There are wonderful seals who are looking for a home, some of them need treatment, as there are many seals, there is a characteristic smell, but this did not frighten us)
Big greetings to the guys from Moscow.
A great place for adults and children, where you can play with cats, and draw, and for responsible people you can also cut down.
I wish the kittens to find a home and a loving family.

An interesting place to come and play with cats. All cats are affectionate, they make contact easily. There is a corresponding smell in the museum itself, but not strong, although judging by the condition of the floor, not all cats go to the tray, so be careful)))
But the idea is great, they take care of and, if possible, put the seals in good hands)))

Not what I expected. A shelter for cats where you can look at them, pet them and take them home. Cats are normal, sleeping, well-fed, satisfied, they don't need anything. They live well.
Children and adults can pet pets, play checkers, and drink tea. There are many drawings drawn there.
Once again, this is not a MUSEUM)
There is no museum and exhibits, there is tea, cats and drawings...
In general, a very touching and even peaceful place, but not a museum!
The price is off the charts. SOOOOO EXPENSIVE!
05.2024 ~ 1200₽ for three. Two adults and a child

Leaves a lot to be desired: 1. The condition of the animals; 2. Sanitary conditions; and other points. In particular, the exposition is far from being defined as a museum. This is rather not a cat museum, but a thematic place. In general, because of clauses 1 and 2, it is difficult to be there. I feel sorry for the animals.

We visited the museum. It's a good place. But it's not a museum anymore, it's a shelter. There are few seals. There are painful ones. We wanted to play, but the seals are cramped. On the one hand, it's good. You can take the seals home if you like. The ticket price has already increased compared to the price on the website. In general, we have contributed to the maintenance of seals. You can view statuettes in the form of seals and buy souvenirs.

You can clean the trays more often. Cats don't have their claws sheared. The stench. There's nothing to promote a brand about. Of all the things I've seen in Minsk, this is the last place to visit.

The "museum" left contradictory impressions. On the one hand, it seems like a good idea to do something informal in our favorite city. And I want it to stay in him. On the other hand, an unreasonable entrance fee is charged. The maximum can be sustained for 15-20 minutes there. Because the smell makes its way through all the incense that has been placed throughout the museum. They don't save. The smell of cat urine breaks through all the disguises. But this is not the most important thing. Cats scratch! The museum contains not little kittens-guys, but real mature kittens. And it is better not to touch them, especially during feeding. And so - everything is fine🤗

The museum is very good. The girl who is there, you are super, kind, responsive. The cats are all cute, good, I wanted to take that little black girl who wouldn't let anyone in, but I stroked her))) But, alas, I'm from another city, and I'm constantly on the move. There is tea and coffee, there is a toilet. Good impressions

A spiritual place, we were here on July 13th. All the cats are clean, well-fed and each is wonderful in their own way.
Thank you very much to the man who works here and talks about cats. Plus, you can shelter a cat.
We will definitely come back to you!
Thank you for your kind heart and hard work!

We visited this place with children. They gave 58 rubles, which is not a little, but it wasn't worth the money, after a minute I wanted to leave. The smell is terrible, now there are so many remedies for the smell of animals that could be used. The windows are small, the room is not ventilated. The cats were all asleep. There's nothing for the kids to do there.
I would call this place not a museum, but a shelter for cats, more correctly.
I understand that cats need to be kept, but the price for visits is very high! It would be better if the price was lower, but it was possible to make donations or buy animal feed than that.
I put 3 stars only out of love for animals, but we feel sorry for the "thrown away" money, and then we couldn't get rid of the smell in our nose for a few more hours.

It's a creepy place! I definitely do not recommend it. We went there with my husband and child. Already on the stairs it was clear where we were going - it smelled of cats, but when I entered the room of the so-called museum, I could not stay there, because I barely restrained the gag reflex from the unbearable smell of urine.
Why this room, which is actually a shelter, is called a museum, I do not understand!
There is nothing to do there, semi-wild cats roam, the child tried to stroke one, he hissed and almost scratched. The receptionist said, "It's better not to touch most of the animals here." The cat immediately came up and, raising his paw, peed around the corner of the room🤦
The price of the ticket is unreasonably high, for such money you can go to an art gallery and other museums.
It would be fair to call yourself a shelter for homeless animals and collect donations

The museum is conveniently located, the staff is friendly and helpful. The museum itself is small, located in a former communal apartment. The kids like it. Not really for adults. Of course, there is a specific smell of cats' vital activity, you either get used to it and do not pay attention, or you want to leave as soon as possible!

Of the advantages, you can take any cat with you
of the cons:
1) pungent smell due to incense on every corner mixed with urine, the head starts to hurt after 10 minutes,
2) I felt sad for a dog that eats cat food (instead of special food)
3) at lunch, 90% were asleep, and the remaining 10% did not make contact and did not react to toys, they were obviously tired of attention
4) some cats have dirty eyes, look sick or insufficiently groomed
