Feline Good Social Club, Long Beach’s first cat cafe, will reopen its doors Tuesday, Sept. 1, with new social-distancing measures to provide a safe experience with the cats, the cafe announced last week.
The cafe was forced to close in March because of the coronavirus pandemic.
The cafe, on the corner of Atlantic Avenue and Third Street, has been rearranged into nine seating areas for guests to enjoy 50-minute sessions. All sessions begin on the hour, with the final session at 5 p.m.; capacity has been reduced to 18 guests per session.
The cafe opened its doors last year. Since then, the cafe has placed more than 80 cats into permanent homes.
“During quarantine, we have continued to adopt out cats remotely,” the cafe’s owner, Pam Leslie, said in a statement. “But we are very ready to get back to the lounge and spend quality time with our special customers and playful feline friends.”
The cafe currently has around 30 cats — including 10 kittens — that will be available for adoption. The cats are brought in by the cafe’s own partner rescue group, Long Beach Feline, a nonprofit dedicated to sheltering homeless or abused cats.
“We do a lot of good here,” Leslie said. “For cats and people; especially during this time when we are all looking for safe places where we can have some fun and relax a bit.”
The cafe said it plans to have fun activities and special goodies on its the reopening day. Guests can either walk up on the hour or reserve a spot through Feline Good Social Club’s Facebook page, facebook.com/Felinegoodsocialclub.
