Walk-in spots are available for each session, but space is limited. Reservations are strongly encouraged!
Walk-in spots are first-come-first-serve and cannot be made over the phone, only in person!
You do not! A reservation will grant you access to the cat lounge, but you are more than welcome to visit the cafe, buy a drink and/or snack, and watch the kitties through the windows!
No! If you are trying to book a reservation for multiple people and it is not allowing you to add the amount of people you would like, this simply means that the session is full for online reservations.
You are welcome to call and see if there are walk-ins available for that session, but we recommend booking a different session with more space, as walk-in spaces are limited.

Most of time no. However, we occasionally do treat time a few times a day. Feel free to ask the Feline Guardian or Volunteer on duty if you would like to offer them treats! But it is not always guaranteed, as we do not want our kitties to get too chubby.
Please do not bring the cats any food or treats from outside the lounge.
Cats are typically most active during the first session of the day and closer to dinner time around 5pm, but we cannot garuantee the activeness of all the cats during your reservation. All cats are different and sleep for at least 12-16 hours a day so please be understanding if they seem sleepy during your visit!
We typically have between 18-25 cats staying at the Cat Cafe at any given time.
We adopt all of our cats from the Regional Animal Services of King County (RASKC). The cats stay with us until they find their permanent homes.
Yes, all cats have been spayed/neutered and vaccinated at the shelter before coming to Seattle Meowtropolitan.
Most cats in the lounge currently are permanent residents or "ambassadors" that are staying with us for an indiscriminate amount of time until we decide to put them up for adoption.
There are usually some adoptable cats available, but not always. If you are interested in learning about cats currently available for adoption, please visit our Adoptable Cats page!
If you do meet a cat that you think is the the right one for you during your visit, please ask the staff or volunteers about the adoption process. Or go to our Adoption FAQ page
