from QUIRKY
What goes great with coffee and wine? Errrm ... cats of course! Purrrrrr! Lean in close and listen to this—Mayport Cats is in the process of getting ready to open Jacksonville’s first coffee, wine, + feline bar/adoption center; The Caffeinated Cat! Who’s excited?

The furry new Jacksonville Beach café will serve coffee and wine, and will feature adoptable cats in both an adult room and a kitten room. The sale of coffee and wine will help support the cats and Mayport Cats’ mission of helping street cats and those with no owner who wouldn’t get help otherwise.
“With donations and adoptions at a low and cat population increasing, we felt this was a good way to sustain our program for the cats. We’ll be looking for cat-loving volunteers to help work, and since we are a registered non-profit, service hours are available for responsible school-age kids,” says Tammy King of Mayport Cats. “Right now we’re going to be open six days a week, maybe seven, depending on demand. The hours haven’t been set as of yet.”
The address of the new café isn’t being released quite yet either, for fear people will drop off unwanted cats, but the Caffinated cat is hoping to have their grand opening in late April or the beginning of May, depending on construction progress. Stay connected to Mayport Cats on Facebook for updates. See you at the café!
