Our Mission:
Kzoo Cat Cafe and Rescue's mission is to provide temporary housing and care to local stray and abandoned cats in a relaxed, cage-free, social atmosphere where they can interact with other cats and people in order to find their forever home.
Whether you are interested in adopting a cat, or just want to get your kitty fix - Kzoo Cat Cafe and Rescue is a great place to interact with cats, to play, and relax! Come see us today! |
What is a Cat Cafe?
A Cat Cafe is a place where humans can interact with adoptable shelter cats in a fun, stress-free, environment, while enjoying drinks and snacks (included with entry fee). Cat Cafe's provide an opportunity for people who can't or don't want to adopt cats to spend time with them without commitment, and allows rescue cats to spend their time waiting for their forever home in a relaxed, social, cage-free environment.

I am an AVID cat lover and I've had cats all my life. I've worked with a few animal rescues in the Kalamazoo area since moving here in 2014, and have been very involved from rescuing, bottle feeding, socializing and sponsoring the cats and kittens (and walking dogs!) before opening the cafe in 2017! I also have four cats of my own, Ferguson (Gus), Oliver (Ollie), Mama and Bodhi, 6 chickens, a bunny named June, two lovebirds, a 16 year old Chihuahua named Princess, and a 9 year old toothless Pom named Marv.
I first visited a cat cafe on a trip to Australia in 2016, and fell in love with the concept (and ALL of the cats...). I returned home and decided that Kalamazoo would be the perfect location for a new cat cafe, and got to work! After a LOT of research, meetings and plans, and the support of the community and an amazing crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter, Kzoo Cat Cafe was born on July 17, 2017. |
