[First Store in Hiroshima Prefecture] Protected Dog and Cat Interaction Cafe "ANELLA CAFE" Debuts in Hiroshima, a Leading Prefecture for Animal Welfare. Hiroshima Midorii Store Opens on May 6 (Wednesday)!

ANELLA Group Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Setagaya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Daiki Ito) will open a new welfare-oriented protected dog and cat interaction cafe, "ANELLA CAFE Hiroshima Midorii Store," on Wednesday, May 6, 2026.

This will be the 27th store nationwide and the first in Hiroshima Prefecture.

The Hiroshima Midorii store will open in Midorii, one of Hiroshima City's leading popular commuter towns, located in Asaminami-ku, Hiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture.

The store will be located along Kabe Kaido, one of Hiroshima's main roads connecting the city center and the Kabe area in the north.

ANELLA CAFE's concept is "Classic Hawaiian."

A sign featuring the eye-catching "Anela-kun" logo, with a contrast of "Anela Blue" reminiscent of a clear sky and "Dark Brown" evoking the Hawaiian land, will welcome everyone.

Dog Area

At the Hiroshima Midorii store, as with other ANELLA CAFE locations (excluding some), both dogs and cats are present.

The dog area and cat area are separated, making it an enjoyable cafe for both dog lovers and cat lovers, as well as those who love both.

Cat Area

For two days, on May 6 (Wednesday) and May 7 (Thursday), as an open campaign, everyone can use the cafe with 30 minutes of admission free of charge.

Please take this opportunity to visit ANELLA CAFE Hiroshima Midorii Store.

What "ANELLA CAFE" aims to achieve

"ANELLA CAFE" has connected approximately 3,500 protected dogs and cats with new families.

It operates a unique model that integrates animal protection facilities with Type B continuous employment support offices, enabling people with disabilities to participate in society through caring for dogs and cats and interacting with customers, while also fostering self-esteem through animal therapy effects and a sense of pride in their work.

Beyond mere protection and welfare, ANELLA CAFE continues to be a gentle place where people, animals, and local communities respect each other, and everyone can feel a connection to society.

Comment from Representative Director Daiki Ito

The "ANELLA CAFE Hiroshima Midorii Store" is the first in Hiroshima Prefecture and the third in the Chugoku and Shikoku regions, following the Kurashiki and Marugame stores. Hiroshima Prefecture is a leading prefecture that continues advanced initiatives towards "zero culling." We are very pleased to have expanded the ANELLA circle as a base for connecting new lives in Hiroshima Prefecture. In this region, where the local community has collectively strived for protection activities, we aim to be a bridge that connects more people with protected dogs and cats through the "interaction" entrance, contributing to the realization of a community-rooted coexistence society.
