A cozy cat café opened its doors this week in Camden County, giving customers a chance to relax with feline friends while enjoying snacks, beverages, games and Wi-Fi
Calico Cat Café, located at 918 Route 30 in the borough of Oaklyn, held a grand opening on Wednesday, Oct. 1.
The café in Camden County features a rotating family of eight to 10 rescue cats that visitors can interact with in a specially designed lounge area.
All cats at the café have been rescued and rehabilitated, and are available for adoption to loving homes.
The café serves as a temporary home for these animals while they await permanent placement.
Visitors can book sessions of either 30 minutes for $12 or a full hour for $20 to visit with the cats.
Prices include interaction with friendly cats, comfortable seating in a cat lounge, free WiFi service, cat toys to play with and board games to enjoy.
The café also offers a special ramen bundle deal that includes instant ramen with admission at a discounted price.
The ramen is normally $5, but when customers bundle it with a visit they save $2.
The price for a half-hour visit and ramen costs $15. A one-hour visit and ramen is $23.
The café’s interior features artwork created by local volunteers, showcasing community involvement in the project.
To ensure the health and safety of the cats, visitors are asked to follow the café rules.
Customers must use hand sanitizer before entering and allow cats to approach them rather than forcing interaction. It’s also required that customers remove their shoes, and slippers are provided.
Calico Cat Café will be open daily from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Free street parking is available in front of the building.
Reservations can be made through the café’s website, and those with questions can call 856-209-4972 or send an email to: hello@calicocatcafe.com.
