Enjoy a Coffee and Play with Cats at Ferndale’s ‘Catfé Lounge’
Grab a cup of coffee and play with some cat's during your lunch break in Ferndale.
The Catfé Lounge in Ferndale, Michigan gives cat lovers a new place to hang out and possibly even adopt their new cat. As part of the Ferndale Cat Shelter, the Catfé Lounge is filled with cats and kittens that are available for adoption and offers a community space where people can meet and socialize this them.
If you are looking to adopt a new cat or kitten, or just want to relax and play with a room full of cats, you can schedule an appointment to do just that at the Catfé Lounge. When you visit the Catfé Lounge, you are asked to make a minimum required donation of $15. This donation covers your choice of coffee, tea, or juice and one hour of visiting time. However, if you decide to adopt one of the cats you interact with, that $15 donation will be deducted from your adoption fee.
That's not all. The Catfé Lounge also hosts events in the facility such as Trivia Night (with cats!) and Cat Bingo.
