Cat café opens in Downtown Greenville

GREENVILLE, S.C. —

A feline-filled café has opened in Downtown Greenville.

Organic Cat Café opened Monday on College Street in the former JB Lacher Jewelry store.

Visitors can enjoy drinks and snacks while watching cats. The café hosts 30 cats.

“Our venue is designed to offer a safe and comfortable home for our cats who let human visitors take part of their lives for about 12 hours every day. Different from the animal shelters, the cat café allows you to interact with our furry friends and learn how to treat them correctly in a surrounding which just feels like home. There are certain rules to follow while associating with cats and we can show you how it works!,” the café’s website says.

The café is open Monday through Thursday 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., Friday 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. and Saturday from 1 p.m. to 11 p.m. The website says cat feeding times are Monday-Sunday at 11 a.m., 5 p.m. and 9 p.m.

There is a $10 fee to get into the cafe, but that includes a hot or cold beverage.
