If you’ve ever thought, “I wish I could sip my latte while surrounded by cats,” then Central Purrk Cat Café in Georgetown, Kentucky, is your dream come true. Located at 401 Outlet Center Drive #260, this quirky café is the purr-fect spot for coffee lovers, cat enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates a cozy hangout with a side of whiskers.
Coffee, Cats, and Chill
Central Purrk isn’t just a coffee shop—it’s an experience. On one side, you’ve got a café serving freshly brewed coffee, frappés, bubble tea, and baked goods that will make your taste buds dance happily. Their macarons alone (with more than ten flavors to choose from) are worth the trip. On the other side? A cat lounge filled with adoptable feline friends from the Scott County Humane Society. Whether you’re looking to adopt or just want to spend some quality time with cats, this is the place to be.
And here’s the kicker: the café and cat lounge are completely separate. So if you’re allergic to cats or just not a fan (we won’t judge… much), you can still enjoy the coffee shop vibes without any fur flying around.
Adopt a Cat, Change a Life
Central Purrk isn’t just about sipping coffee and petting cats—it’s about making a difference. Every cat in their lounge is up for adoption and ready to find their forever home. The adoption process is simple: fill out an application, and in most cases, you can take your new furry friend home the same day. Even if you’re not ready to adopt, spending time with these cats helps them socialize and show off their personalities. It’s a win-win for everyone involved.
Events That Are the Cat’s Meow
This isn’t your average café. Central Purrk knows how to keep things interesting with events that are as unique as they are fun. Ever tried yoga with cats? It’s exactly what it sounds like—stretching and posing while curious kitties wander around (and sometimes join in). They also host trivia nights, paint-by-numbers events, and private parties. Got kids? Check out their Kiddie Cat Hour for some family-friendly feline fun.
Why Cats?
The husband-and-wife team behind Central Purrk started the café with one goal in mind: to help cats in need. With millions of cats entering shelters every year—and far too many being euthanized—they wanted to create a space where rescue cats could thrive outside of cages. Here, these cats can interact with humans, show off their personalities, and increase their chances of being adopted.
It’s not just about helping cats; it’s about creating connections between people and animals. Whether you’re adopting or just visiting for an hour of cat therapy, you’re playing a part in giving these animals a better life.
Plan Your Visit
Central Purrk is open Wednesday through Saturday from 11 AM to 7 PM and Sundays from 12 PM to 5 PM (closed Mondays and Tuesdays). Reservations are highly recommended for the cat lounge since space is limited. Don’t forget—you don’t have to visit the cat lounge to enjoy this spot. The café has plenty of seating, free Wi-Fi, and enough caffeine to fuel your day.
So whether you’re looking for your next favorite coffee spot, considering adopting a cat, or just needing an excuse to hang out with some adorable felines, Central Purrk Cat Café has got you covered. It’s not just a café; it’s a community hub where coffee meets compassion and every visit makes a difference.
