Coaster Cats Cat Cafe Chambersburg

Carlisle, Pennsylvania · 31 mi / 50 km

Coaster ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌⁠Cats Cat Cafe is a cat cafe on North Hanover Street in downtown Carlisle, a short walk from the town square. It occupies the former Round-A-Bout Bagels cat cafe, which opened here in April 2025; Roxy and Nick Moseley, a husband-and-wife team from the animal care industry whose love of roller coasters gave the cafe its name, bought the business in the summer of 2026 and reopened it as Coaster Cats in August 2026. Visitors pay timed admission, in 30- or 60-minute slots with lower prices for children, to spend time with adoptable cats from Furry Friends Animal Rescue, and drinks and snacks such as specialty lattes and bagels are bought separately. Reservations through the online booking page are suggested, especially on weekends, though walk-ins are welcome when there is space. Every guest needs a ticket and a signed waiver, and children 12 and under need a chaperone. The cafe runs regular events, such as book nights, teen nights and movie nights.

Well-behaved dogs on a leash are welcome, and a fenced dog patio is planned. A small shop sells cat-themed items, with proceeds going to the cats' care, and the space can also be booked for events and meetups with friends.

Give ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​⁠Purrs A Chance is a nonprofit cat adoption center and cat cafe in a two-story Victorian house on Independence Street in Berkeley Springs, a short walk from the town's historic spa park.

It is one of the largest cat cafes in the country by floor space and usually has a large number of cats in residence, including a dedicated kitten room. Visitors pay a low admission fee, with a reduced rate for young children, which gives all-day access, and no appointment is needed. The house also has the Catique Boutique, selling vintage and new cat-themed items alongside work by local artists, and a kitten cam online.

Catty ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌⁠Corner is a nonprofit cat rescue and cat lounge on 13th Avenue in downtown Altoona. It operates from the former Second Chance Strays Cat Rescue and Lounge, which took on the Catty Corner name in late 2025, and gives rescued cats a home-like space to live until they are adopted. Visitors can come in during the weekly open hours simply to spend time with the cats, or to meet one they might take home, and a modest visit fee helps cover food, litter and veterinary care. Around twenty cats and kittens are usually in residence, all spayed or neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and tested before adoption, with reduced fees for adopting two kittens together. Adoption applications are handled through the rescue's online form. The lounge is staffed by volunteers and has relaxed seating and plenty of climbing space for the cats.
