Northeast Ohio and Cleveland's First Cat Cafe!
(198)
LAST CHANCE TO ENTER YOUR CATS! 🗓️
We’ve extended the deadline until midnight tonight, so hurry and enter your to be considered for the 2025 calendar! It’s free to enter, just fill out the form linked in our profile or highlights!
We’ve already gotten so many cute pictures, we can’t wait to share them tomorrow when voting starts!
Atom has been with us so long it's spooky!
Atom is a sweet black cat that wants to be your best friend! He's equal parts playful and affectionate, especially with the people he loves and trusts. He has two front teeth that are too big for his face, so taking cute pictures is super easy (for any prospective cat instagram afficionados).
Want to really get to know him? Make a reservation for the entire morning with our comewter pass!

We will be CLOSED tonight, 9/12.
It's our slow season once again, so we may be adjusting our hours too!

LOOK. LOOK AT HOW CUTE THESE ARE. 😭
Join us from 3pm-7pm THIS FRIDAY during for a pop-up artist spotlight! Get here early, we expect these to be popular!
The talented .sofia will have a limited number of these ring holders and incense holders, prints, stickers, and glasswork available in the cafe side. Come grab a Chai Apple Cider, and admire her work and our cute cats!
Is your a meowdel like Lexi? 📸 2025 Calendar entries are open now!!
The entry link is in our highlights or on the website! Since the calendar is pretty minimalist we won’t be able to use them all, but it’s free to enter!
It’s ok if non-affoGATO cats or other pets are included in group shots (the more the merrier!) but entries must include at least 1 cat adopted from affoGATO. Alum can be from anytime, not just 2024!
All entries will be put into a voting pool for 2 weeks to gauge interest before we pick the finalists to go to the printer!
Entries will close on Wednesday 9/18 at 11:59pm!
Do you want amazing local cafe goodies that help an awesome cause? We have you covered!
We have so many delicious vegan pastries in this bad boy and amazing to pair with it! Here's the kicker, it all goes towards maintaining the rescue cats' luxurious lifestyle. (Those freeloaders—it's a good thing they're so cute!)

Kelly took her stuff to go. She's enjoying her snacks in her furrever home!
Feel free to grab drinks and snacks to go. They all go toward taking care of the cats!

If you want cozy vibes, you know where to find them
..It's here, at your local cat café!
Weekday mornings are perfect for a co-mew-ter pass, which lets you stay the entire morning to sip coffee, relax, do work, rest, whatever you like! Feel free to show up any time in the morning and feel free to hang out until close.
We are always welcoming new feline friends, so you never know who you'll meet!

We will be closed Monday. Happy Labor Day, the day brought to you by unions!
Did you know that if you rent an apartment, you can form a tenants union with your neighbors? It's a great way to make demands of your landlords and lock in rates! There has been a massive uptick in these unions, and there are lots of success stories. More money in your pocket means more money to spoil your kitties!
But on Monday it's time to relax! Maybe with a Twitch stream?!

We're hitting our slow season, which means we have to let some cats go. About 4 cats have already gone to their furrever home this week, and we're looking to make more cuts to our kitty staff.
The guy from McKinsey said we need a lean force that can still deliver the best possible consumer experience without inhibiting the workflow with a bloated workforce, because that doesn't maximize shareholder value.
He charged us $100k for that advice, so it has to be good.
📷😺:Riley, 5/F, ADOPTABLE
Beans are ✨️magical✨️
The more you boop, the better you feel!
So reserve your spot if that appeals!
📷😺: Lexi, 2/F, ADOPTABLE
We love hosting you, so if you decide you want to come to the shop on the weekend for a special event, like a birthday, please, please, please make a reservation.
Hope everyone has a nice week!
📷😺: Ayla, 8/F, Adoptable

Will Lexi snuggle, or will she scratch? That kind of high stakes ante is what being alive is all about! Carpe them diems! Feel the rush of hanging out in a cozy space with delicious beverages and snacky-poos.
📷😺: Lexi, 2/F, ADOPTABLE
Atom seen here doing his best vampire bat impression.
He's been one of about 6ish or so cats that seem to have just fallen through the cracks and has been with us for a sneakily long time. Probably because he's a good mix of social butterfly and goofy goober, so he doesn't really stick out despite being an awesome little dude.
Our vegan donut pop up is Saturday, but we almost sold out with pre-orders, so if you want one, try and get here early!
📷😺: Atom, 4/M, ADOPTABLE

¡Hoy es el día de los gatos internacional! Es la hora de relajarse con los gatitos en nuestro café.
Stardust is ready to meet you! This seven year old lady can be a little timid but really opens up once she knows she can trust you.
This morning is starting to fill up a bit, so grab your spot for this morning or afternoon soon!
📷😺: Stardust, 7/F, ADOPTABLE
Sometimes, we get a cat so cute that it gets scooped up before we can post. But then y'all get a photo dump, so here you go!
Here's Tanuki! She's already shape shifted into a cat with a furrever home!
Hopefully, we'll have an exciting pastry pop-up announcement tomorrow, so stay tuned!
📷😺: Tanuki, JUST WENT HOME
And if you gaze for long into a void, the void gazes back.
Does... does anyone else feel the sudden urge to hoard all of the churru meat tubes? *shiver*
Got a couple of other events we're cooking up in the cat lab. But don't forget that the Cozy Cat Book Club is live on our site! (link in bio)

It’s finally here!! The Cozy Book Club will start on August 22nd. Reservation LINK IN BIO!
Hang out with rescue cats and discuss “cozy fiction”! Includes some free time to play, and themed cafe drinks will be available for purchase. This month’s books will be a pair of novellas by Becky Chambers: “A Psalm for the Wild-Built” and “A Prayer for the Crown-Shy”.
We beg you, please don’t order books from Amazon if possible! The wonderful folks have offered our readers a discount on these two books, links in highlights! You can also order via email or call, just name drop affoGATO!

We’re not affiliated with the author in any way, just really enjoyed these books and can’t wait to share a cozy evening discussing them with you!

BTS with Wisteria
Wisteria might be the most food motivated girlie we've met. Despite having just one tooth! 🐈⬛️📷: Wisteria, 12/F, ADOPTABLE
🤯🤯🤯 Ayla has recently decided to show her affectionate side!! She used to bat at us and get upset when anyone tried to pet her, but weeks of bribery and playtime at the cafe have finally unlocked her trusting, sweet self! She is a cat, so it’s still gotta be on her terms, but we hope you’ll continue to help shower her with love, patience, and playtime until she finds her furever home! On that note, we currently have lots of space for teen and adult walk-in bookings this evening from now until the lounge closes at 5:50pm! Come spoil them! 😻 📸😻: Ayla, 8yo/F, ADOPTABLE!
Ohio cats are under attack, my friend's mother's cousin said so. 📷😺: Atom, Lexi, Bubba, Little Debbie, Wisteria, ALL ADOPTABLE #catcafe #cleveland #ohiocats

Beautiful Cloud serving floofy eyebleach. You can put in adoption applications on our site, or better yet, make a reservation to meet her in person! 📷😻: Beautiful Cloud, 3/F, ADOPTABLE
Meet some of the adoptables we have at affoGATO! #catcafé #rescuecats #catsofinstagram #cleveland
Little Debbie….Big Deborah. (Vintage TT, but we couldn’t resist once Little Debbie joined the adoptable crew!) 📸😻: Little Debbie (1yo/F) and Riley (5yo/F)
To everyone who has donated to help Wisteria, we have great news. Because of your donations, we have been able to get her blood work done, and it came back with the fantastic results! The hydration therapy that you've paid for/donated is working, and she's now overthrown Blue Diamond as the new matriarch of the lounge. If you want a cuddly old stub-tailed lady who is also an assertive queen when it comes to food, fill out an application on our site! 📷😺: Wisteria, 12/F, ADOPTABLE
KitNip Box June 2024!
Blue Diamond 🔹️ has a problem harassing employees. She's constantly escalating (climbing) and has no volume control when talking to co-workers. She's really not a good cultural fit. It's probably best if she moved on (to her furrever home) Summer hours are now available to book online! We will be open Wed & Thur evenings now, too! 📷😺: Blue Diamond, 4/F, ADOPTABLE

As Cleveland’s first cat cafe, affoGATO’s mission is to improve our city by creating a safe, comfortable haven for adoptable cats, cultivating a fun and inclusive space for cat-lovers to work and play, and teaming up with other local businesses and artists for the betterment of the community as a whole.
For our commonly asked questions, such as how reservations work, our policy on children, employment info, and where the cats come from, CLICK HERE.
We provide a safe home for adoptable cats. You can then pay a small cover charge to relax, work, and enjoy coffee and snacks with these friendly felines. We partner with several local businesses and artists in order to host fun, unique events and produce food, drinks, and merchandise.

Cat cafes like affoGATO aren’t just a fun place to visit. They actually have important benefits for rescue cats, people, and the community, too!
