Louisville cat café celebrates 10,000 adoptions with Kentucky Humane Society
A Louisville cat cafe is celebrating a huge milestone with 10,000 adoptions.
Purrfect Day Cafe, located at 1741 Bardstown Road, became the first cat cafe nationally to facilitate 10,000 cat adoptions Sunday just after its sixth anniversary, the Kentucky Humane Society stated in a news release.
First opening in 2018, Purrfect Day Cafe works in partnership with the Kentucky Humane Society to adopt out cats "who would otherwise be homeless or in a shelter," the release said, and 10,000 adoptions mark a "significant achievement in animal welfare and community engagement."
Cats adopted at the cafe come from 37 Kentucky counties and cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and microchipped before Purrfect Day acts as a foster home.
