Visitors can relax in a cozy space with adoptable cats, and admission fees go toward the rescue's adoption costs. The lounge offers scheduled visits and community events such as trivia and karaoke nights. Adoptions aren't completed on the same day as a visit, so each senior cat gets a careful match and a real second chance.
