Hi everyone!

We are beyond thrilled to have over 800 FOLLOWERS joining us on this exciting journey to bring Cafe Gato to life! Your enthusiasm and support are incredible, and we can't wait to share more about what's in store. Here’s what you can look forward to:

1. Plan Opening Timeline: Spring Celebration! 🌸
Mark your calendars because we're aiming to open Cafe Gato by Spring of next year! We’re busy behind the scenes crafting delightful coffee recipes, ensuring we meet all the necessary regulations and licensing, and finding the perfect location. It's coming together, and we can't wait to share this dream with you!

2. Cafe Gato's Resident Cats: Adoptable and Adorable! 🐱
We're planning to partner with a fantastic local shelter to bring in cats that will call Cafe Gato their temporary home. These cats will be available for adoption, so not only can you enjoy their company, but you might just find your new furry best friend! Unfortunately, we won't be able to accommodate outside cats, so please keep your feline friends at home, but we’re excited for you to meet our resident kitties!

3. Future Team Members: Stay Tuned! 👩‍🍳
We're incredibly grateful for the excitement about joining the Cafe Gato team! While we're not hiring just yet, we'll be sharing opportunities as we get closer to opening. We can't wait to build a team as passionate about cats and coffee as we are!

We're so excited to bring this unique experience to Providence and can't wait to welcome you to Cafe Gato. Keep following us on social media and join our newsletter for more updates, sneak peeks, and announcements. Please share our journey with your friends and family—we love seeing our community grow!

Hello and welcome to our page! We are Cafe Gato, an aspiring cat cafe with hopes to be located in Providence, RI. Never heard of a cat cafe? Well, it is exactly how it sounds, a cafe with CATS! Founded by husband and wife duo Max and Kaylin Mugica-Drumm (hi there!), Cafe Gato’s mission is simple – to bring coffee lovers together, one cup at a time, while improving the wellbeing of our guests and furry friends, one adoption at a time. By partnering with a local animal shelter, we plan to have a separate cat lounge within the sit-down cafe dedicated for our guests to meet our adoptable, furry friends while enjoying a premium coffee or specialty beverage.

Now there is a lot we are working on to bring this dream to a reality, so if you would like to see us come to Providence, please join us in our journey of bringing Cafe Gato to life!
