Your visit to the lounge helps support the work we are doing! Thank you for choosing to spend time with our cats and for your generosity!
Reservations allowed at one time: 4. We limit the number of guests in the lounge to help you get more quality kitty time and minimize the stress on the cats. We can accommodate a single group of up to 6 people but please let us know in advance. Please have each adult sign the waiver prior to your first visit and have a responsible adult sign for each minor: Adult Waiver Here — Minor Waiver Here
Current cats at the lounge: View our Available Cats page. If the number and/or age of the cats at the lounge is important to you please look at who we have prior to making your reservations. We cannot guarantee a particular number or particular behavior available at any given time. Our main mission is helping cats get adopted.
Interested in adopting? We do not do same-day adoptions. It is a process that includes meeting the cats and talking with us, an application, and a home check. Hoping to take home a cat today? Consider HSVC (Ojai), VCAS (Camarillo), and SPARC (Santa Paula).
Children are welcome. If they will be walking around independently you will need to pay for their entrance. If you’ll be holding them or hovering within arm’s reach the entire time then no entrance fee is required for them. We require 1 parent or guardian for every 2 children 13 and under. We will review our policies with you and your child when you come to visit so that cats and humans will have the safest and most enjoyable time possible. Children 14 and older may visit the lounge without a parent but the minor waiver must be submitted by a parent/guardian ahead of time.
We cannot guarantee that all (or even any) of our cats will be awake and wanting to play during your visit. Cats can sleep 15-20 hours a day. First and last appointments tend to see the cats more lively. 2pm tends to be a sleepy time.
Our fees (which all go toward the care and housing of the cats):
Weekdays: $6/30 minutes or $10/60 minutes
Weekends: $8/30 minutes or $14/60 minutes
Private Party (weekends): $168 for 1.5 hours, $210 for 2 hours
Private Party (weekdays): $120 for 1.5 hours
Private parties are for groups of up to 6 people and everyone in the group must be able to respect the calm environment we strive to maintain for the cats. The same rules apply to children 13 and under (1 adult for every 2 children). Private party rates include 15 minutes in advance for set-up and 15 minutes after for our clean-up. Please contact us with your idea!
