Safety Precautions:
To come see the kitties, you WILL need an appointment. We will not be accepting any walk-ins at this time. Also, only one group/appointment will be allowed in the room at a time. You must be on time for your appointment--if you're running very late or need to cancel, please call us so we can make adjustments. We're trying to keep interactions between groups to a minimum in an effort to keep everyone safe!
You MUST wear a mask to come into the shop and go into the cat room.
We also ask that you wash your hands before entering the cat room AND after leaving.
These precautions are for the safety of our staff, but also for your own safety! We want to keep things as safe as possible so that you all can see the kitties again, but no one will get sick. And rest assured, we will be thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting throughout the day as well. If you have any specific questions, please feel free to reach out!
Also, if you still feel safer staying home, but miss the kitties, we've started a Twitch livestream of the cat room so you can watch them from afar and get some cat therapy from a distance!

Ways to help us!
And more big news!We have moved to Garfield!Some of you may have heard already, but we have left Butler St. and moved up to Penn Ave. into Workshop's old storefront! Leaving Butler St. was very hard for us, the community down there and our neighbors were just so incredible and made us feel so at home when we first moved in.
After a couple years in that space though, we’re ready to expand and finally offer our dream of a larger cat room and a full coffee bar! It’s not going to be an overnight process, but with your continued support we can make this beautiful space our home! We’re so eager to be a part of the incredible community up on Penn Ave. and can’t wait to make this space our own. Thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years and been patient as we worked towards this dream. |
