  I love this place and their mission to save the kitties! They even have kitty yoga😻 Just remember you have to make an appointment to see the kitties and there is a $10 per person, per hour fee. You also cannot pick up or awaken the kitties, this is for the safety and comfort of you and the cats. You can also get small refreshments and cat merchandise while you're there. I highly recommend the hot chocolate ☕

  I love the Cafe Meow for what they are doing for these cats (all are up for adoption) and supporting local businesses through the cat products, food, and beverage items they sell. This is about doing something for the right reasons and in my opinion, they are achieving that goal! It’s a learning curve and with positive feedback and new ideas, they will keep growing and adapting. I love to bring my kids here to see these cats. I appreciate the work that went into the fostering process before the cats could be selected for the cafe environment. We can’t have a cat so we choose to come and socialize with these cats as often as possible. We have been there four times and have four more reservations booked already. To me, when I think of the costs for food, litter, the nice play area they have and vet bills, $10 per person seems reasonable to me. I have had dogs that cost me hundreds of dollars each month in food and vet bills. Yes, your experience one day won’t be the same as the next - that’s cats for you. We enjoy walking around and seeing them sleep or stroll around. If one wants to play, it’s hilariously fun. The kids are learning to be patient and let the cats decide. I respect the reservation process and rules of interaction because it protects the cats. Cafe Meow - Please keep up the hard work because I know how much you care for these cats and I have had only positive experiences with the cats and staff!! I hope you continue to grow and achieve your vision. Clearly the goal of finding homes is working well - given the number you have adopted so far!!

  Honestly I love this place. It functions as a foster home for cats and gets them adopted as well as socialize them. What I love about the cafe is that it’s designed for the cats. There’s not a lot of sitting area but that’s perfectly fine because the design of the room is for the comfort of the cats, not the pleasure of the humans. Overall the staff are super friendly and really helpful, and it’s obvious they love cats. I think the rules that they’ve set in place are for the cats safety and comfort. Obviously there’s a rule that you can’t pick up the cats- how are the staff supposed to know whether or not you know how to properly hold a cat? And it’s just kind of rude to wake a sleeping cat. Cats sleep like 16 hours a day, how would you like it if someone woke you up multiple times throughout the night when you slept? Also, I think $10 is perfectly reasonable. Obviously cats aren’t free to sustain; they need food (wet and dry, to get a balanced diet) and toys and cat litter and new scratching posts and all the necessities that it takes to own a cat. Plus, they have to pay rent on the building, which isn’t going to be cheap. I think the Cafe Meow is fantastic. Obviously if I could go see cats for free I would, but I’m a reasonable human being that understands that it costs money to take care of cats.

  This place is a wonderland for the adoptable cats, about 15 cats in total. The cat space allows for the animals to crawl and sleep in all sorts of nooks and crannies, and for that I applaud them. The cat visitation area has plenty of windows so those not visiting can see the animals (great idea). The drink menu is fairly basic, with a small dessert case that I didn't partake in. I think it's a lovely idea overall, but the cats seemed exhausted by the perpetual stream of people. You can't bother them while sleeping, nor can you pick them up to snuggle. The visitation room is truly designed for the cats, so there is a limited amount of comfortable seating for the visitors- it was a challenge to get truly comfortable and enjoy the cat company.
