I’m giving this place a low rating because of how the cat room is set up. There is no place for the cats to go where they can get away from people when they are touched out. We went around 3pm and all the cats were in bad moods because they had been touched by so many people all day, there should be more respect for these animals. I won’t be going back here I feel bad for cats kept at this cafe. They need either a place they can escape to when they are done being touched or less people allowed in per hour, the groups they are letting in are huge and often have many small children in them which from my experience is clearly affecting these cats negatively. It was very sad to watch these cats run around trying so desperately to find places to hide to get away from people.

We got 2 cats from here about a year and a half ago. My daughter and I enjoyed the cocktails and visiting with all the cats. I would say there was probably 20 other people in the room so even though you are in there an hour, I'm not sure you really get to "bond" with any one cat. I have to agree with other reviewers that the staff was interesting to interact with but would expect there has been turnover since then. I too was also taken back with the declawing question and I also voiced that this organization should be transparent on their website. The owner seems to have made it clear that won't be changing so hopefully others will see the review if that is your preference. I didn't mind having to choose that we wouldn't declaw the cats, I did mind the process. The adoption staff took us in the back room and really made us feel like horrible people for even considering it. In retrospect, they had a lady in the cat room asking questions about this as well which both my daughter and I had commented that she was odd. The cats both had respiratory infections and one of our cats had a hernia which I felt should have been disclosed. We had went to our local shelter to get a cat but they had shipped all the younger cats to this place which is why we ended up here. I would have preferred to go through the shelter.

Went with my mother and my brother on a Wednesday afternoon, looking to adopt. We were a few minutes early of our booked time and grabbed a drink ahead of hanging out with the cats.
The staff were all friendly and helpful. The cats were all cute but with us being picky, we didn't leave with one. There were two other people sharing our time slot but that was no issue.

I want to leave a warning about getting a cat here. My boyfriend and I got Jasper at the end of June. Immediately after we picked him up we noticed he was severely ill. I reached out to them to let them know he was sick and they told me I had to directly reach out to the rescue Jasper came from and that they had saw no signs of sickness. He had snot coming out of his nose and watery eyes when we picked him up and when he got home his conditions worsened. We took Jasper to the vet 5 times in the span of 4 months. The first visit he had a UTI and a severe upper respiratory infection. When we told them we got Jasper at Purrfect, the vet said he had quite a few cats come from Purrfect all with respiratory infections. We ended up having to continually take Jasper to the vet because he was having severe runny nose, watery eyes, and seizures. I had snot everywhere in my apartment. They couldn’t figure out what was wrong with him.
I came home one evening where I found Jasper limp. We rushed him to the ER and all the lady had to do was run some vitals to deem liver failure. After $2500 in vet bills and only having him for 4 months, we had to put him down. It was extremely heart breaking. We tried to change our experience with Purrfect Day Cat Cafe by going recently. After 30 minutes we left even more traumatized because two cats showed signs of respiratory issues and another cat had eyes so infected that it could barely open them. I’m so disappointed in my experience with this place.
I like the idea of the this establishment. Super cute themed decor and lots of toys and structures to keep the kitties busy. The drink menu has good variety, and this is a fun place to hang out, while supporting a good cause.
I feel that there are a few things that could be improved, but overall this is a nice place to go with friends or if you have older kids.
After visiting other cat cafes prior to this one, I felt keeping litter boxes out in the open to be a bit unhygienic to have drinks around. The litter box odor was quick to hit our noses.
Part of my concern is that small children may try to play with the litter box contents.
Cleaning boxes between guest groups could possibly help this, or having hidden litter boxes.
One other note-
If you don’t like crowds and want to meet the more reserved kitties, avoid the weekend, and choose your time slot wisely. I wish that the groups sizes were a bit smaller to help encourage the shy cats to interact, and increase their chances of getting adopted.
With that said, I really like that sessions are offered for ages 18+.

Great experience, 10/10 recommend to anyone in need of some cuddle therapy. The adoption process for little Cookie was quick and stress free!
