Owner and staff completely unprofessional, my wife adopted a cat two years ago and it died several weeks later after the cat was sick .Alexis Dexter is an unprofessional business owner, if you want a cat I highly recommend Queen CIty Cats in Burlington a lovely service

Terrible business I was ignored by staff when I wanted food and decided to go elsewhere. Cats do not look well cared for and some are kept in cages, my friends cat died from FIV a month after adopting it.

Delicious baked goods and coffee, AND you get to visit with sweet adoptable kitties? What’s not to like? Went for my daughter’s birthday today to this cat sanctuary, and she loved spending time with their cats. They have a large cat room with the biggest, coolest cat tree I’ve ever seen. These cats are definitely well cared for. They had cool cat decor and novelty gifts everywhere, and my daughter picked out a space cat tshirt. I had the best iced sugar cookie I’ve ever had from a bakery. We’re from South Burlington and it was definitely worth the drive. They even decorated my daughter’s to-go box with birthday wishes and a friendly feline. ❤️ Thank you both for making my daughter’s birthday a very special one.

I decided to bring my boys to the Kitty Cafe - we have a kitty at home who is very apprehensive around them, and they were craving some snuggly kitty action. We weren’t sure what to expect here but we are SO GLAD we went! We had to wait a bit for a time slot to enter, so we enjoyed some delicious baked treats while reading about the adoptable kitties on the cafe wall. When it was finally our turn to enter, the boys and I were overjoyed to see so many friendly cats (the container of treats we purchased to dole out may have earned us some attention!) our half hour was the perfect amount of time to get our fix, although my five year old was quite sad when it was time to say goodbye. We will definitely be back! Thank you for creating this wonderful kitty haven (and loving on these kitties so well) for our whole community to enjoy.

My daughter has raved about this place since she moved here so when I visited I had to go.
A quaint cafe with a limited menu and freshly baked goods provided by a local bakery with adjoining cat haven that you can visit and enjoy.
To my knowledge all the cats here are rescues needing a forever home. So some may come and go if you visit often. Interactions may vary depending on the day and time. I recommend paying for a small ramekin of treats to have a better experience with the cats. They'll enjoy it more too. Just keep in mind cats do whatever whenever and that may or may not include you in their plans. Many times I visited and had no trouble petting many, getting them to engage with toys and treats, and also just lounging with them while the vocalize for attention. Though the last time many cats had a lot of eye discharge and lots of sneezing going on.
I commend this place for what they do for the cats and community. I understand the unique challenges that presents with the framework they have to operate in and will not fault them for any of that.
However my only complaints have been both times I've ordered food things have been incorrect, forgotten, or made worse. Post ordering it can be troublesome just to get someone's attention especially if they're busy for its size. One time I had ordered a bacon and cheese sandwich as part of the daily combo just for it to be completely missing the bacon. By the time I could bring it to their attention it would have been a hassle to remake/fix and declined so not to trouble further hoping it was a one-off mistake. Sadly the next time I came in and ordered food I was correctly charged and rang up for a muffin, but was left off my food when delivered to the table. Eventually when it could be brought to their attention they randomly reached into the case and grabbed a random muffin from a completely different shelf/location. I had ordered and looked forward to an orange cranberry muffin just to eventually be handed a mountain berry/mixed berry muffin.
I recommend the cats and helping support that endeavor.
I assume if the food and service was consistent I'd could possibly recommend tha, but in my multiple experiences I can not in good faith do so.

This is where I adopted my sweet kitty, a very happy addition to my life!
My Son and I wanted to come in and check this place out due to the cats that we always see and we each ended up getting a cookie. I was really looking at first because most of the times they’re so hard and then we each got hot chocolate while he got a mental one I will tell you this cookie is so fresh that I take a bite of it in the whole huge cookie for we got two medium hot chocolate mine with whipped cream foamand the two cookies and was right around $13 very nice atmosphere. Lots of things to look at lots of cats to watch and play I am so glad we chose to come in.

I love this place. The food is great with amazing creativity for item names. The cat sanctuary part is so delightful and such a draw I had a breakfast panning and coffee. The flavor of just their regular coffee really tickled my taste buds. Its hard to find a decent cup of regular coffee these days. I enjoyed the staff as well. So polite and genuinely helpful and kind.
