Cassie’s Cats is a cozy cat lounge and adoption center that opened its doors in June 2021, born from a 501(c)(3) non-profit founded in 2020 with a mission to place rescued cats and kittens into safe, loving homes. Unlike traditional cat cafés, it doesn’t serve food or drinks but focuses entirely on feline welfare, partnering with local shelters and rescues to socialize and rehome cats—boasting 177 adoptions by September 30, 2024—while offering a welcoming space for visitors to interact with adoptables for a small fee. Run entirely by volunteers, this haven features a gift shop with cat-themed merchandise and emphasizes educating the public on adoption benefits, spaying/neutering, and caring for neonatal kittens, creating a community-driven sanctuary where every visit supports the cats’ journey to their forever families.
