The Cat's Closet
Bloomington, Indiana
The Cat's Closet is a cat lounge and vintage clothing shop on South Pete Ellis Drive near College Mall on the east side of Bloomington. Founders Sydney and Clairessa sold vintage clothes online and at markets from 2021 while doing cat rescue on the side before opening the shop. The vintage racks, with t-shirts, sweaters, denim, jackets, dresses and records, are in a room kept separate from the cats and need no booking. In the cat lounge, adoptable cats from the Greene County Humane Society roam free, and visits are booked online in 30-minute or one-hour slots, with a discounted short visit on Thursdays. Walk-ins are possible but booking ahead is recommended. The cats can be adopted through an application process. The shop also hosts monthly markets and bingo, rents out the space for private events and shows local artists in a small gallery.

Btown Meow Cat Cafe
Bloomington, Indiana
Btown Meow Cat Cafe is a small cat cafe on State Road 46 on the northwest side of Bloomington, run by a mother and daughter. Its free-roaming lounge is home to adoptable cats from the Bloomington Animal Shelter, and by autumn 2026 it had found homes for more than 365 of them. The cafe sells a selection of drinks and prepackaged treats that guests can take into the lounge. Visitors pay a small fee for time with the cats and may pet them, but should not pick them up without permission. The number of people in the lounge is limited, so reservations are encouraged and walk-ins may be turned away. Children are welcome as long as an adult stays with them in the room. Adoption is by application and approval. The cafe also runs a cat of the month, storytime and silent book club events and sells cat-themed merchandise.
