\nSo, what exactly is a cat caf\u00e9? Some may think it\u2019s a place to take you kitty for a coffee break or to meet up and play with other cats, but it\u2019s not. It\u2019s actually designed for people who love cats, but can\u2019t have one of their own. At the Frisky Cat Caf\u00e9, people have the opportunity to cozy up with a sweet, purring kitty when they want.<\/p>\n
Upon entering Frisky Cat Caf\u00e9 guests are welcomed by the scents of craft coffee, fresh baked goods and more. Guests are welcome to enjoy their favorite coffee while making new friends or even adopt one of the furry cat residents.<\/p>\n
Cats are waiting beyond the caf\u00e9 area in a room divided from the eatery by a door and windows. This creates a complete separation between the food and felines. However, guests are more than welcome to bring their food or drink with them into the cat lounge. Those with allergies, or who do not wish to visit the cat room, may enjoy a view of the cats through the glass panel. play.<\/p>\n
Why a cat caf\u00e9? <\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cFirst and foremost, we\u2019re here to save lives,\u201d Carla Forrest, founder of Small Lives Matter, says. \u201cMost cats are not able to handle the stress of living in cages at a shelter; they can shut down, become unfriendly and aggressive and seem \u2018un-adoptable\u2019 (a fast-track to euthanasia). We work with dedicated cat guardians to provide a quiet, interactive, free roaming and cageless environment where adult cats can thrive.\u201d<\/p>\n Cat caf\u00e9 proceeds will directly support rescue efforts such as vet care, support for foster homes, and the trapping, neutering and returning of feral cats (commonly known as TNR, helping to curb the feral cat population).<\/p>\n \u201cOur cat caf\u00e9 is saving lives by enriching humans with cat interaction while providing relief for both stressed-out cats and humans,\u201d Forrest explains. \u201cWe believe people become much better people when they\u2019re around animals and we believe all cats are adoptable.\u201d<\/p>\n Don\u2019t believe it?

Much like people, cats and kittens need love, affection and a space to call home.<\/p>\n The Frisky Cat Caf\u00e9 has a chic minimalistic vibe.
