Kitty Corner Social Club
Iowa City
Kitty Corner Social Club is a cat lounge on South Clinton Street in downtown Iowa City, next to The Airliner and across from the University of Iowa campus. Opened in February 2025 as the city's first cat lounge, it is a living-room style space with couches and a TV where visitors relax with adoptable cats from the Iowa City Animal Care and Adoption Center and other regional shelters. Almost 600 cats have been adopted so far. No food or drink is sold; water and tea are free, and guests may bring their own snacks. Entry is paid in 15, 30 or 60 minute blocks, walk-ins are taken every hour and reservations are recommended for groups. Adoption applications are reviewed weekly. The lounge also hosts private parties and movie nights, and in late 2026 it moves to a larger space at 375 S Clinton St.
