Cat Cafes in Jacksonville, Florida

Jacksonville, Florida

Pink Paws Cat Café is a cat cafe and bakery in the BJ's shopping plaza on Atlantic Boulevard in east Jacksonville. It opened in October 2026. The front cafe serves coffee, ceremonial matcha, boba drinks, imported French croissants and other pastries and breakfast items, and guests can then go into a pink, storybook-themed cat lounge to spend time with the cafe's resident cats. Unlike most cat cafes in the area, the cats are pedigree residents rather than rescues waiting for adoption, with breeds such as Maine Coons and Savannahs among them. The cafe is aimed at coffee dates, family outings and groups of friends, and it is open every day.

Bold Kitty Cafe is a cat lounge inside the City of Jacksonville's Animal Care and Protective Services shelter on Forest Street, west of downtown Jacksonville. The shelter opened the room, together with a community cat room, in July 2026 as a place where visitors can relax with adoptable shelter cats, not only meet a cat they plan to adopt. Guests are encouraged to bring their own coffee or a book and settle in among the cats; the lounge does not sell food or drinks. All the cats are in the care of the city shelter and are waiting for homes, and adoptions are handled by shelter staff on site. The lounge follows the shelter's public hours, every day from noon to 7 PM. It is one of the few places in Jacksonville to spend time with cats since the Caffeinated Cat in Jacksonville Beach closed in April 2026.
