Four rescues throughout Virginia trust us to showcase their felines, and provide us with cat food, litter, and cleaning supplies. Kitty Kingdom charges the public to interact with the kitties while enjoying a "non alcoholic beverage." Yet when a kitty is adopted all of the adoption fees go to the rescue sponsoring our kitties. We have a relaxed atmosphere in our café. We are able to serve a variety of coffee, tea, craft beer, wine. Food options are rustic, but we have pastries, and little meals for everyone from vegan to carnivore. We work hard to keep Kitty Kingdom a safe, fun and warm environment for both felines and hoomans."
