LA’s Very Own Cat Cafe
12.22.16
By Asma Mohammed
September 30th marked the opening of Los Angeles’s very own cat café, Crumbs & Whiskers on the corner of Melrose and Fairfax Ave! Here, cats that are up for adoption in local shelters are given a chance to socialize with people looking to adopt or simply give the cats a bit of affection.
A portion of proceeds from the café will go to benefit non-profits like Open Space and Karma Rescue. Here guests can sip on teas and lattes while falling in love with cats and kittens that need homes. It’s as simple as booking an online reservation for $22 per 75-minute block. So, next time you have a craving for a latte or croissant, stop by and give some time and love to a kitten in need!
7924 Melrose Ave. in Los Angeles.
