Café is a purrfect blend of coffee and adoptable cats and kittens
BY FRANCINE FULTON
Twin Valley High School
alumna Calla Gibson of Elverson, who founded Calla’s Critter Rescue in May of 2021, has expanded her efforts to find forever homes for rescued cats and kittens through a new partnership with Craig’s Cat Café. At the café, which is located in the Riveredge complex in Spring City, visitors can not only enjoy coffee and sweets, but they also have an opportunity to meet and interact with adoptable animals and complete an adoption application. If approved, adopters can pick up their new pet at the café to take home. Since Craig’s Cat Café opened on July 15, five cats have been adopted from the location.
The coffee shop is owned by East Coventry Township resident and special education teacher Rachel Craig, who was introduced to Calla by a mutual friend, local author Michelle Brownlow of Morgantown. Craig also owns and fosters cats. “I went to a cat café on vacation, and I said, ‘We need one of these at home,’” said Craig.
Craig created a cat room in the café that is surrounded by an acrylic glass wall and is separate from the coffee shop area. Visitors are asked to pay a cover fee to enter the cat room, which
features toys and cat trees for the animals to enjoy.
Calla and her mother, Stephanie Gibson, who is a pet groomer and a foster, visits the café regularly to check on the cats and change their litter boxes, which are located in a separate area from the cat room.
The cat adoption process, which includes checking veterinarian references, is handled by volunteer Steve Brown.
The first residents of the cat room at the café were kittens that Craig acquired through one of her students. “One of my
students asked me to take her cat. I took her to the vet and I (learned) that she was pregnant, and she had kittens that week, so I had her and her five babies, and they all got adopted,” said Craig.
“So, I started out with a litter of my own kittens, and I met Calla

The community is invited to attend the 48th annual Hay Creek Festival, to be held on Friday through Sunday, Sept. 6 through 8, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at historic Joanna Furnace, 1250 Furnace Road, Geigertown. Attendees will be able to savor seasonal treats, enjoy live music, purchase handmade arts and crafts and learn about the past through re-enactments and displays. The festival, which is being presented by the Hay Creek Valley Historical Association (HCVHA), will also feature children’s activities and a display of antique vehicles and machinery.
A highlight of this year’s festival will be a Civil War encampment. This year, re-enactors will be from Thompson’s Independent Battery C, which is new to the festival, and the 50th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry (PVI).
“We will have an expanded encampment this year (featuring) more than 40 re-enactors,” said Mark Zerr, HCVHA executive director. “The PVI will also (re-enact) some of the homefront during the encampment, where
Calla Gibson (left) and her mother, Stephanie Gibson, care for the adoptable cats and kittens that are housed at the café. While Jimmy (cat on right) recently went to his new forever home, Mittens (cat on left) is currently available for adoption.

and Calla brought in (additional) rescues.”
In addition to playing with the cats, visitors can enjoy beverages such as iced or hot coffee, along with “catpuccino” and “purr a latte.” Baked goods offered for sale include Danishes, cookies, macaroons and brownies. Vegan choices are also offered.
The most recent adoption at the café was Windig, who went home with his new family on Aug. 18. “We came in a few weeks ago on a random Sunday and got some coffee and played with some kitties and fell in love,” said adopter Bernadette Cohen,
adding that Windig will enjoy the company of his new family’s children, including Lindsay, Grayson, Bailey and Natalie Steckert.
Craig’s Cat Café, 11 Riverside Drive, Spring City, is open on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., on Fridays and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on Sundays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. A new sign is currently being installed in the cat room, which will feature a QR code that will take visitors directly to the online adoption application. The application can also be found by directly visiting www.callascrit terrescue.com. The website also contains an application for foster families that care for the cats and kittens until their forever homes can be found.
Additionally, the rescue is seeking donations of food, cat litter and monetary contributions.
In addition to Calla’s Critter Rescue, Calla is the head kennel manager and adoption manager at Diane’s Pet Supplies and Adoption Center in Pottstown, which was recently acquired by Animal House Project, a nonprofit organization.

women will be cooking.” The re-enactors will also have firing demonstrations on Saturday, Sept. 7, and Sept. 8.
Another popular aspect of the festival, according to Zerr, are the children’s activities. Children will be able to pick up a “chores list” at the festival gate, which will feature all the hands-on activities available at the event. Upon completion of a variety of tasks, children will be rewarded with a free wagon ride.
“A chore can be making a handdipped candle or getting answers to historical questions that they ask of the re-enactors,” Zerr explained. “They can also (complete a chore) in the Civil War area by taking part in being a soldier. (The chores can
be found) all over our 26 acres. They don’t have to complete everything, just a required amount.”
A variety of entertainment will take place on the main stage throughout the weekend, including Marian Gehman & Friends, who will perform a ventriloquist act on Sept. 6. “New this year is our Sunday act, the Evans Sisters,” Zerr noted. “Their show features the music of Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn, Connie Francis, the Andrews Sisters, Lennon Sisters and many more. The public should really enjoy them.”
Musical groups performing on Sept. 7 will be Just Practicing, which will play cover tunes from the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s, and Elm
Grove, an acoustic trio that will perform a mix of traditional Celtic songs, fiddle tunes, maritime music and classic folk music. One Heart One Voice, a gospel quartet, will perform on Sept. 8. The Hay Creek Valley Gold Band will also perform folk and bluegrass music throughout the festival.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that everyone age 6 months and older get a flu vaccination. While the CDC recommends flu shots by the end of October for everyone 6 months and older, certain groups of people are at greater risk for complications from the flu.
