The Adopt Me Cat Cafe update dropped on September 18, 2026 — and it hit at exactly the right moment. Uplift Games paired one of the most fan-requested features in the game's history with Roblox's 20th Anniversary event, creating a double-spike that has Adoption Island busier than it's been in months. Four new cats are up for grabs, a brand-new building has opened on the island, and if you log in before Friday September 25, there are free rewards sitting there with your name on them. This guide breaks down every new pet, every drop rate, and exactly how to get each one without wasting a single Robux.
⚡ Quick Answer
The Adopt Me Cat Cafe update (September 18, 2026) added a new Cats and Coffee building on Adoption Island with 4 new cats: Catacino (87.5%), Cate (10%), and Matcha Cat (2.5%) from the 75 Robux Kitty Biscuit, plus Le Pain Au Chat free from Releaser Eggs. The Throwback Egg gives a Blue Cat or Pink Dog for 400 Bucks.
What Is the Cat Cafe in Adopt Me?
The Cat Cafe — officially named Cats and Coffee — is a permanent new building on Adoption Island. It replaces the old café footprint and has multiple areas including an upstairs section. Players can walk in, interact with the space, buy new food and drink items to feed their pets, and use the Kitty Biscuit to catch new cats that swarm around you when you use it.
This was one of the longest-running community requests in Adopt Me history. The café concept had been teased and hinted at through subtle map changes and price drops on older shop items for weeks before the official drop. Uplift Games confirmed the update on September 18 with the patch note: "A long awaited request has finally made its way onto the island. Today we unveil the Cat Cafe. A new place to hang out and get some much-needed cat cuddles." — Uplift Games, Official Patch Notes, Playadopt.me
📊 Key Stat: Adopt Me currently keeps approximately 140,000 concurrent players online on average — a number that historically triples during major updates like this one.
All 4 New Cats — Drop Rates and How to Get Each One

| Pet Name | How to Get | Drop Rate | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Catacino | Kitty Biscuit (Cat Cafe) | 87.5% | 75 Robux per Biscuit |
| Cate | Kitty Biscuit (Cat Cafe) | 10% | 75 Robux per Biscuit |
| Matcha Cat | Kitty Biscuit (Cat Cafe) | 2.5% | 75 Robux per Biscuit |
| Le Pain Au Chat | Basic & Crystal Releaser Eggs (tickets) | Ticket-based | Free (tickets only) |
🐱 Matcha Cat — The Chase Pet of This Update
At a 2.5% drop rate, Matcha Cat is the clear collector target here. It follows the matcha green tea aesthetic and is expected to hold trading value precisely because of how low that chance is. Don't go in assuming 40 biscuits guarantees one — that's not how probability works. At 2.5%, you could need 60, 80, or more pulls. Budget accordingly before spending.
☕ Catacino — The Guaranteed One
With an 87.5% drop chance, Catacino is effectively what you're getting every time you use a Kitty Biscuit. Coffee-themed design, matches the café concept well. It's going to be common in the trading pool fast, so don't expect it to hold much value long term — but it's a nice pet to have and doesn't cost you a chase.

🥐 Le Pain Au Chat — The Free One
Le Pain Au Chat (yes, it's a French pastry pun) "got lost" on the way to the Cat Cafe and ended up in the Releaser Stand instead. Spend tickets — not Robux — on Basic or Crystal Eggs from the Nursery's Releaser to hatch it. This is the one to prioritize if you're playing free-to-play this week.
Is the Kitty Biscuit Worth It?
Honest answer: it depends on which cat you're after. At 75 Robux per biscuit, here's what the math looks like:
- Catacino (87.5%): You'll get this on your first or second biscuit almost certainly. Worth a single buy just to complete the collection.
- Cate (10%): Statistically around 10 biscuits (750 Robux) for a reasonable chance. Could go faster, could go longer.
- Matcha Cat (2.5%): Statistically 40 biscuits on average — that's 3,000 Robux and not a guarantee. Only chase this if you're a serious collector or the trading value makes it worth it to you.
⚠️ Important: Drop rates are independent per pull. Buying 40 biscuits does NOT guarantee a Matcha Cat — the 2.5% applies fresh to every single biscuit. Set a hard budget before you start.
I've been around long enough to watch multiple Adopt Me updates come and go — the pattern with Robux bait pets is always the same. The rare one spikes in trade value immediately after launch, then slowly drops over two to three weeks as more people pull it. If Matcha Cat is something you want, the first 48 hours after launch is when its trade value is highest. Either pull now or wait for it to come down in trading.
💡 Pro Tip: If you don't want to spend Robux at all, focus on Le Pain Au Chat from the Releaser this week and trade up from there. A free legendary-tier pet from a new update always has trade value on day one.
Throwback Egg — What Is It and How Do You Get One?
Alongside the Cat Cafe, Uplift Games dropped a second bonus tied to Roblox's 20th Anniversary. Head to Eggburt on Adoption Island and grab a Throwback Egg for 400 Bucks — in-game currency, not Robux. Inside, you'll hatch either a Blue Cat or a Pink Dog, two nostalgic pets that reference Adopt Me's earliest days when the game was essentially just about adopting cats and dogs.
The Roblox platform itself turned 20 years old this year — Adopt Me has surpassed 40.8 billion total visits since launch, making it one of the most-played games in Roblox history. The Throwback Egg is a nod to both anniversaries at once.
📊 Key Stat: Adopt Me! has achieved a peak of 1.92 million concurrent players — the number typically triples during major updates, which explains the spike you're seeing this week.
The Throwback Egg is available only during the anniversary window, so grab it before it disappears. At 400 Bucks it costs nothing real — just play the game, complete tasks, and you'll have enough. No reason to skip this one.
