Welcome to Pink Paws Cat Cafe: our story so far

From a family cattery in Jacksonville to a whimsical café built around the cats we raised — here's how Pink Paws Cat Cafe came to be.

Pink Paws began as a family cattery, raising British Shorthairs with an almost embarrassing amount of love. Over the years we noticed something: the happiest moments weren't the paperwork or the shows — they were the afternoons when families sat on our floor and let a kitten choose them.

The café is our way of bottling that feeling and sharing it with the whole city. The cats you'll meet are our own — resident cats who are part of the Pink Paws family and are not available for sale — and we designed the space around them like a storybook come to life: castle nooks, climbing turrets, and a coffee bar that takes drinks as seriously as we take cats.

From time to time, kittens may be available to join a new family, and when that happens we take our time finding the right match. The rest of the time, the cats are simply here to be visited, admired and adored.

We're opening our doors soon. Come say hi, drink something pink, and let a cat find you.
