Since we last updated you on what’s happening at The Cat Cafe, we’ve had quite a few cats come in. We didn’t get a chance to introduce them to you properly. The reason? They got adopted before we had a chance to tell you about them!

Since we last posted, Gabriel, who we introduced you to, got adopted. We had two kittens, Marley and Ozzie, who were only with us for a couple of days. Roberta, a two year old calico, only stayed with us for a couple of days before she going home.

Roberta’s adoption was an interesting one. Her adopter was in San Diego for a convention. They visited The Cat Cafe, and fell in love with Roberta. After purchasing a carrier from a local pet store, they adopted Roberta right before getting on their plane to head home..

Roberta is the second cat we’ve sent to the Bay Area. Look out Cat Town and Kittea! We’re sending SoCal cats to take over!

We don’t know if the latest addition to the clowder at The Cat Cafe will have as long of a journey to get home. But we’re sure she’s going to go to a good home.

Say hello to Gypsy, who has a very fitting name. A kind person took Gypsy, who was a stray, to the San Diego County Department of Animal Services. She came in with a bad upper respiratory infection, which needed treatment. She was transferred to San Diego Humane Society in order to make this easier for her.

It took a while, but Gypsy fought off the infection. After that Gypsy made the trip to The Cat Cafe. Gray Baby, who seems to have settled into a role as greeter of the new cats, went right up to her to try to play.

Gypsy wasn’t quite ready for that. She told Gray Baby to back off, which he did. But he’s persistent and keeps on trying to play with her. She’s slowly warming up to this.

With people, Gypsy is a little skittish, but she’s very friendly. She will approach people and ask for interaction. Like any cat, Gypsy has her limits. When she reaches them, she’ll let you know. Not in a mean way. Gypsy will just walk away.

We haven’t seen too much of Gypsy in the playpen at The Cat Cafe yet, but it’s only been a few days. She’ll be out in the playpen soon.

Come on by and meet Gypsy and the rest of the cats in The Cat Cafe clowder!

We’ve had a busy July at The Cat Cafe. We had the All Star Game red carpet parade pass right by us. The summer was also in full swing and that meant lots of visitors. And then of course there was the biggest event in San Diego, Comic-Con.

All of this activity meant that we didn’t adopt out as many cats as we typically do. During July, we sent three cats to their forever homes. We’ve had some days where we’ve adopted more cats out here at The Cat Cafe.

We don’t mind, though, because the goal is to make sure we highlight the cats here to as many people as possible. And we’ve got some challenging cats to place. Many people aren’t interested in adopting either of the senior bonded pairs we have. And we have a few cats who are particular about who they like and aren’t afraid to show it.

We’re happy that we added another member to the clowder at The Cat Cafe. Gabriel is going to fit right in with the current residents here and has already started to make himself at home.

In addition to being the newest member of the clowder, Gabriel is the youngest. He’s a year old. Gabriel had been adopted previously from San Diego Humane Society. However, because of an allergy a child developed, he was returned.

This active, 15 pound boy likes to interact with people, including respectful children, other cats, and cat friendly dogs. He’s already started running around the playpen. You can also see Gabriel chasing string toys and walking right up to people to introduce himself to them.

We don’t think a cat like this is likely to remain here for long. If you’re interested in meeting him, visit us soon. Gabriel and the other members of the clowder at The Cat Cafe will be glad you did.
