Örebro Katthem
Örebro Katthem is a volunteer-run cat shelter and foster-home network on Sockengatan in Örebro that takes in homeless and abandoned cats and finds them new homes. Besides the cats placed in foster homes, a group of cats lives at the shelter's premises, where the public can drop in during open-house hours held every week, alternating between a Wednesday evening in even-numbered weeks and a Sunday afternoon in odd-numbered weeks. Visitors can meet the resident cats, talk to volunteers about them and ask about adoption. Cats are examined by a vet, neutered and vaccinated before they are rehomed, and an adoption fee applies. The shelter publishes profiles of its cats, including those in foster homes, and news of new arrivals and adoptions on its website. It is a shelter rather than a café, and visits centre on meeting cats that are looking for homes.
