First saw this on a new Bobby Flay show. He gave it good reviews so I decided to try it. First it's not too far from other great places so I decided to take a day trip. ( I live 114 miles away.) I save my pennies and make a day trip out of it. I get in the are have a quick Thai lunch nearby, walk around for a bit then go to Crumbs and whisker for a coffee and a sampler of the menu to take with me on the way back. I told them, like many others I'm sure, to take their time while I enjoy the environment. I used to have a small farm, no kill, but my current situation I have no animals so I treasure any time I'm able to interact with animals. It's very cathartic. It was awesome. I could describe it for you but your experience will be different and hopefully, but doubtfully, better. It was definitely worth the trip. Cats are great. Always had some on the farm. Highly recommend "cats" and "Crumbs & Whiskers."

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. OMG this is like literally heaven on earth for me. I love cats so much, and there are so many of them here 😍 it’s like on steroids. I am pleased. My heart is full. This place is spotless clean, cats are healthy and well-fed and well-taken care of, warm, professional & welcoming staff who are gladly taking pictures for you while playing with the kitties (thank you and shoutout to Amber & Anne, you both did an amazing job when I was there!). Hanging out with kitties really fulfilled my heart, I am so overjoyed with bliss and pure love, especially when cats are purring 🥹🥰 Totally worth the trip, time & money, 30minutes went by so fast when you are having a blast. Although they allowed walk-ins, I’d suggest booking an advanced reservation on their website before your visit to save time. Parking is plenty on the street, and make sure to leave your dogs at home 😉😆

Heart melted! Super cute spot for you to pet some furry friends. The staff offer a free Polaroid to each group and bring the kitties to you when you are shy. Instructions were clear and easy to follow.

Great space where the emphasis is on the cats and not on the cafe. If your looking to adopt a cat this is the perfect way to do it. The cats are already pre screened to be friendly and it provides an easy environment to find a cat you have chemistry with

You can make a reservations online or take your chances by showing up. As far as drinks (non-alcoholic) and sweets are concern, you'll place the order there as you arrived and they will bring them to you. I hope I understood your question correctly and provided you with the answer.

Can you bring our own cat as well. We are looking to adopt a cat to go along with our other cat want to see how he handles another cat.

Queenie | Sep 18, 2021
Amani Young | Sep 18, 2021

You are not allowed to bring your own cats. During the adoption process with the partner rescue, they will do a home check, as part of the adoption process, to see if the two cats are compatible.

Are kids 4+ allowed?

Brenda Artiga | Sep 18, 2021
Josephine Luu | Sep 18, 2021

They only allow age 7 and up for safety of the kittens and child.

Do tgey adopt or take cats

Robin Schlosser | Sep 18, 2021
Amani Young | Sep 18, 2021

All adoptions go through their partner rescue, The Cats Meow. The team at the store can help you fill out the application. Crumbs & Whiskers does not take cats directly.

is there an entrance fee go get int?

pee wee | Sep 19, 2018
Saul Vidal | Sep 19, 2018

There is a service fee yes but you can choose from 20mins or 70mins. The 20mins you cant get cafe service though.

Do you have to book if you want to hang out with the cats????

Laila M M | Sep 19, 2018
Michelle Lee | Sep 19, 2018

It's pretty recommended. I think they will take walk ins but only if there is available space. I might also recommend booking earlier to opening time or later after the cats have napped and ate in the evening...otherwise you'll be hanging out with a lot of sleeping cats like we were lol.
