TELACOYA Co., Ltd. today announced the grand opening of “NyanNyan-Ji Yufu Annex” (officially Shoki Myoshu Head Temple NyanNyan-Ji Yufu Annex) in Yufuin, Oita Prefecture, scheduled for Wednesday, August 12. Located near Lake Kinrin, this new museum and shop is dedicated exclusively to cat-themed art.

Following the success of the original location in Yase, Kyoto, which has attracted significant domestic and international attention, the Yufuin location will serve as a new permanent facility for the brand.
The museum does not house live cats; instead, it operates exclusively as a cultural and artistic venue showcasing cat-inspired paintings and merchandise. The facility prominently features the work of acclaimed cat artist Kaya Miyano.
Visitors can experience an immersive artistic environment featuring traditional Japanese sliding doors (fusuma), ceiling paintings, and an enshrined feline deity statue, all designed around cat motifs.
