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.

About me, Abbey:

I am an AVID cat lover and I've had cats all my life. I've been working with a few animal rescues in the Kalamazoo area since moving there over 4 years ago. I've been very involved, from rescuing, bottle feeding, socializing and sponsoring the cats and kittens. I also have two cats of my own, Ferguson (Gus) and Oliver (Ollie).

I first visited a cat cafe on a trip to Australia in 2017, and immediately 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!

I've since been working hard to ensure that Kzoo Cat Cafe and Rescue is the best rescue space that it can be for cats to wait patiently for their forever home. We facilitated 89 successful adoptions in our first year, and expanded in July to become our very own non-profit cat rescue organization! I've recently attended the Michigan Pet Fund Alliance's Michigan’s No Kill Conference, Getting to the Goal, and the Michigan Humane Society's 2018 Great Lakes Animal Welfare Conference, to learn more about cat welfare, enrichment and shelter best practices. My aim is to make the cat cafe the best possible place for Kalamazoo kitties to wait for their forever home, and for people in the community to enjoy socializing with the kitties, and each other.
