Cattyshack Cafe

Cattyshack Cat Cafe is a unique coffee shop and lounge with a dedicated, cage-free area for interacting with adoptable rescue cats and kittens. Partnered with Gulf Coast Humane Society, it typically houses 15-25 cats, providing them a comfortable space to socialize and find homes, with over 500 adoptions since opening in June 2020. Visitors can book 50-minute sessions in the “Mulligan Room” for $15, enjoying coffee, beer, wine, and grab-and-go foods like grilled cheese and pastries, all crafted with a cat-themed twist (e.g., “Catspresso” or “Meowchiato”). The cafe features a golf-inspired design with cat-friendly elements like climbable palm trees and a mini golf cart, plus events like cat yoga and trivia nights. Entry fees and an online store with cat merchandise support the cats’ care and the cafe’s mission to reduce local euthanasia rates.
