The Catfé is a coffee shop environment, which is quieter and targeted for adults, to keep the stress levels as low as possible for the cats in our care.

AGES | Kids must be at least 5 years of age. Groups may bring one child who is not a member of their immediate family but they must be over 5 years old and have a waiver signed online in advance. Teens 15-18 may visit without a parent or guardian present, but must have a waiver signed online in advance. Since we have limited space in the cat lounge, people of all ages must have a space reserved.

RATES | The cat lounge entry is $10 for non-members and $5 for members. Having 18 living beings on site 24/7 is expensive and this helps us keep our adoption, TNR, and foster programs running!

MEMBERSHIP | Membership is only $25 for one year per household. Members may apply their discounted entry rate of $5 to anyone visiting with them. Read more about how to become a member or make reservations as a member by clicking here. 

ACTIVITIES | Bringing your own activities is a great idea! Coloring, reading books, or favorite games are great ways to spend time together and with the kitties!

WAIVERS | You'll sign a waiver in person for your children visiting with you. The online waivers are only for unaccompanied teens.

BRINGING FRIENDS | Parents may only bring one child who is not their legal minor at this time.

BIRTHDAYS & EVENTS | While we love to be included as a special surprise for birthday celebrations for one on one visits or your immediate family, we are not scheduling birthday parties at this time. 

RULES & GUIDELINES | Keeping the lounge stress free and safe for the kitties our top priority. To accomplish this, we ask people to follow the following behavior guidelines:

• Use quiet voices, move slowly, and play or pet gently.

• Let kitties come to you, instead of chasing them.

• Let sleeping kitties stay asleep. It can startle them to be woken up suddenly.

• Take plenty of photos! Just keep the flash off so it doesn't hurt their eyes.

• Let the kitties come to you. Do not pick them up.

• Do not let the kitties eat any human food. It makes them very sick.

• Be respectful to the other guests and don't invade their space. They are here to have a nice visit with the kitties too.
