ANELLA Group Co., Ltd., which operates the welfare-oriented rescue dog and cat interaction cafe "ANELLA CAFE" nationwide, opened ANELLA CAFE Kawasaki Ekimae on Thursday, January 22, 2026, at 12:00 PM in Kanagawa Prefecture.
This location is the first new opening of 2026 and marks a milestone as the 20th ANELLA CAFE nationwide.
By establishing a new location in the Kawasaki area, the cafe aims to expand opportunities for rescue dogs and cats to meet people within the local community. The time spent with dogs and cats at the cafe directly supports rescue activities.
Making Encounters with Rescue Dogs and Cats More Accessible
ANELLA CAFE has been expanding locations nationwide as a place where rescued dogs and cats can spend time safely interacting with people and meet new families.
"I'm interested in rescue dogs and cats, but I don't know where to start."
"Going to an adoption event feels like a high hurdle."
In response to these voices, the cafe provides a space where people can become familiar with rescue dogs and cats through the experience of interaction.
The Kawasaki Ekimae location also aims to be an entry point for encounters with rescue dogs and cats, positioned as an easily accessible place in everyday life.
In the bright and open interior with a classic Hawaiian concept, unique rescue dogs and cats warmly welcome visitors.

ANELLA CAFE's "Sanpo Yoshi" Philosophy
"Saving one dog may not change the world, but it will change that dog's world forever"
ANELLA CAFE values being a place where meaningful relationships can be built among rescue dogs and cats, customers, and operating staff.
The time spent with dogs and cats at the cafe and the experience through interaction become opportunities to learn about the existence of rescue dogs and cats, and the revenue from admission fees and other sources supports the continuation of rescue activities.
To date, ANELLA CAFE locations have collectively facilitated the adoption of approximately 3,000 rescue dogs and cats to new families.
The moments that visitors spend at the cafe become the power to support the future of rescue dogs and cats, leading to new encounters.
▼ Regular gatherings are also held with adopters and graduated dogs and cats

A Workplace Where People with Disabilities Thrive, Connecting People and Animals
ANELLA CAFE functions not only as a space for interacting with rescue dogs and cats but also as a Type B continuous employment support facility.
Through employment support initiatives, people with disabilities can gain training and practical experience toward social participation through tasks such as caring for dogs and cats and customer service.
Interaction with dogs and cats is expected to have animal therapy effects, and the environment is arranged so that users can feel connections with people, with animals, and with the local community while developing pride and fulfillment in their work.
Through these community-based initiatives, the cafe aims to realize a society where people and animals can live together comfortably.
CEO Daiki Ito's Comment
We are engaged in this business with the fundamental belief that we want to "save the lives of dogs and cats nationwide and make their world a little better."
ANELLA CAFE is neither a simple shelter nor a cafe chain.
It is a place to meet rescue dogs and cats, an opportunity for visitors to think about life, and that time and experience become the power to support the next life. We aim to create this circulation within the community.
As we have expanded locations nationwide, establishing our 20th location in the Kawasaki area is a significant milestone for us.
We hope this place will be a comfortable place for rescue dogs and cats and a memorable meeting place for visitors.
Rescue dogs and cats, the people involved, and the local community.
Building meaningful relationships for all of these is the "Sanpo Yoshi" philosophy that ANELLA CAFE values.
From this Kawasaki Ekimae location as well, we aim to expand this circle one by one.
