Kitty City Cat Cafe
About
Kitty City Cat Cafe in Roanoke, Virginia, offers a space to relax with feline friends, functioning as a unique "cat museum" concept that prioritizes ethical cat welfare. While the cafe generally has no entry fee, allowing unlimited time with the cats, one visitor noted a $15 entry fee that contributes to its non-profit mission. All ages are warmly welcomed, though children require close parental supervision. Guests can discover cats ready for adoption, with availability changing weekly.
