WHO WE ARE
The goal of Gem City Catfé is to foster positive interactions between cats and people in an expectation-free environment. We are a cafe space with free WIFI serving fair-trade coffee, tea, delicious bakery items, and wine and cocktails. Our fully separate cat lounge is home to over a dozen adoptable feline friends from our 501(c)(3) non-profit rescue partner, Gem City Kitties. We also have an art gallery upstairs, which serves as extra seating for co-working or activities like classes, meetings, and workshops.
CATS
We have up to 18 rescue cats living in the cat lounge! Come to say hi and help socialize or adopt if you meet the right friend!
COMMUNITY
Our upstairs art gallery features local Dayton artists with large tables, cozy chairs, and plenty of seating for working or meeting friends!
COFFEE
Espresso bar with coffee, tea, assorted bottled beverages and locally made bakery items! Vegan drink options available.
OUR RESCUE PARTNER
Gem City Kitties is a 501(c)(3) non-profit created to partner with Dayton's Cat Café, Gem City Catfé. Together, both organizations work to improve the lives of cats in Dayton. We collaborate with local rescues and shelters to help find homes for cats in need. In 2021, Gem City Kitties opened Gem City Vet, a low-cost nonprofit clinic in Trotwood to expand the ways we are supporting cats in our community.
