Santa Barbara’s only cat cafe, Cat Therapy, is celebrating its seventh anniversary with a kitten party on August 24th. The event is being held in partnership with the Animal Shelter Assistance Program (ASAP).
Since opening in 2017, Cat Therapy has been fostering cats in their downtown lounge and they are almost at the 1,000th adopted cat milestone. Their mission is to provide a home-like environment for rescued cats, allowing them to be out of cages and socialized while they wait for their forever homes. The cafe is open to visitors regardless of their ability to adopt, with entrance fees helping to sustain their work.
