Changes that Everyone Hates!
Earlier this month, we lowered admission to make visits more affordable. With more cats in our care than usual, that price no longer covers the basics and repairs needed to keep our cats safe and the space open. We want this public foster home to be here every day for you and for the cats, so we need to adjust to stay sustainable.
Starting Friday, September 26, weekday admission will return to $7.50. On weekends, it will be $7.50 for a 30-minute visit and $12.50 for an hour. Mondays and Tuesdays will shift to reservation only so our team can catch up on the behind-the-scenes work that makes everything possible. As winter approaches, we may extend reservation only days.
We still want to welcome as many neighbors as possible. To encourage local visits and adoptions, we’re adding a $2.50 discount for local residents. We’re also extending our free community time from Sundays to Saturdays as well. If you’re planning to adopt, please have waivers signed and your Animal Protective League application completed so we can help you faster.
Thank you for understanding and for sticking with us. If you want to help right now, share this post so more neighbors find us, bring a friend for a visit, or book a party at our website (spicatpjs.com). Also, share our Taylor Swift Music Bingo with Cats on September 29 to pack the place. Events like this help café cats move in and keep the lights on.
We want to thank our community for keeping us motivated, and we'll do what we can to stay open. We'll keep our cozy corner open 12 to 4 pm at 524 E Capitol Ave every day. Your support helps keep our mission alive!
