Cat Cafes in United States

Destin, Florida

Cara’s Cat Café, located in Destin, Florida, proudly holds the distinction of being the city's first cat café, offering a cozy retreat where visitors can enjoy a purr-fect cup of coffee and delicious bites alongside adoptable feline friends. This welcoming space charges $18 per hour for access to the cat lounge, with all proceeds supporting the care and well-being of the resident cats, while partnering with local shelters to facilitate adoptions—ensuring adoption fees go directly back to those organizations.

With a menu of high-quality, thoughtfully prepared food and beverages, Cara’s Cat Café aims to raise awareness about animal rescue, providing a safe haven for cats to mingle with guests and find forever homes, all while offering a relaxing escape for animal lovers in the heart of Destin.
