What is a cat cafe?
The easiest way to understand our cat cafe is to think of a regular coffee shop...with cats. Technically speaking, that's all it is. No, really. It really is that simple!
Our cat cafe offers a unique interactive experience for cat lovers where they can sit, sip, watch, and play with free-roaming, adoptable cats. The animals are housed on the premises and are cared for by cafe staff until they are adopted. Mochas and Meows is a behavior-based facility, so we differ a bit from other cat cafes in a few aspects. For example, we house primarily adult cats and do not prioritize the "fast" adoptions over the "right" adoptions.
How does it work?
"But I don't want cat hair in my coffee!"
Believe me, neither do we!
That's why we house the cats in a completely separate area from the cafe!
Patrons have the option to purchase hot and cold drinks that you can take with you to-go, sit and enjoy them while relaxing in your choice of indoor or outdoor seating areas, or pay the cover charge and enjoy your beverages while hanging out with the cats in the comfort of our living-room-type lounge area.
Why a cat cafe?
Why adopt a cat from a cat cafe instead of an animal shelter?
Easy. Because a cat cafe IS an animal shelter. Well, basically.
All the resident felines of Mochas and Meows are provided to us by Branson Humane Society and all adoptions are processed and overseen by their organization. The biggest difference lies in the housing; all cats living in the cafe enjoy the freedom of living cage-free and the socialization of being face-to-face with both people and other animals more often than those living inside shelter cages.
