    FAQs

    Do you accept walk ins?
    Walk ins are accommodated on a space available basis, but reservations made at least two hours before the session ensure entry.

    Can I arrive the day of?
    Yes, but walk-up reservations include only 30 minutes of playtime; online booking 24 hours in advance is suggested.

    What's on the menu?
    Our full menu is available on our website.

    Are the cats adoptable?
    All cats are fostered through The Rescue House and may be adopted after speaking with staff or volunteers.

    How do you make sure the cats stay happy and healthy?
    The number of visitors is limited and guests must maintain a calm environment; disruptive behavior results in removal.

    How many cats will be in the Cat Cafe?
    We typically host 10 to 12 cats, though numbers vary with adoptions and rescue needs.

    The reviews paint a sharply divided picture, with customer service being the major point of contention. Many visitors rave about friendly, accommodating staff and wonderful experiences with well-cared-for cats available for adoption. Families particularly love the concept, and several reviewers mention the owner's kindness and the cafe's genuine commitment to cat rescue. The feline residents get mixed reviews themselves, with some finding them friendly and playful while others describe them as less socialized. However, there's a consistent pattern of complaints about rude or disengaged staff members that's hard to ignore. Multiple recent reviews describe unwelcoming interactions at the front desk, from eye-rolling to dismissive responses to basic questions. Some visitors report feeling like an inconvenience rather than a customer. There are also concerns about the appointment system not being clearly communicated and occasional early closures. If you decide to visit, making a reservation in advance is essential, and you might want to prepare for the possibility of inconsistent service depending on who's working that day.

    My daughter wanted to go to a cat cafe while we visited San Diego. We were surprised with a relaxing hour hanging out with cats. Some of the cats slept while others played. The Staff was friendly and answered all our questions. We enjoyed our time so much we spent two hours with the cats before going to the airport & heading home.
