You get the best of both worlds, spending time with foster cats while enjoying a midday snack. It's $7 for 30 minutes, or $13 for one hour. All cats are adoptable for $100. House Rules include... - 8 guests at a time - They ask you do not pick up the cats. - Do not feed - Please leave sleeping kitties alone. - Wash your hands before entering. Entering inside through the double glass doors and greeting the little ones, they charmingly performed their sniffies and investigative duties on me. Once I received everyone's stamps of approvals, it was bonding time! Massaging their heads, necks, chins, ears and tummies...as long as the residents were filled with contentment, my responsibilities were well earned. And, I even received some licks and lovin in return. It's moments like these I live for. I have a huge soft spot for animals and taking an hour out of the day to come to this cat cafe was truly rewarding. Btw, there was an orange colored cat who was ultra friendly and filled with tons of personality. Enjoying its spa day, this cat could not control its tail! I believe it was feeling pure bliss which brought incredible joy to my heart. In the end, the one hour flew by that I probably could have stuck around and paid for hour number two. Still, it was unbelievably heartwarming connecting with these cats in a loving manner and I certainly made fond memories visiting the Central Purrk Cat Cafe.

Since it was my first time going, the owner Phyllis gave me the rundown: there are three self serve tubs with different shampoos and condtioners. The tubs are raised and have a hose, which is nice, so you can easily stand while you give your dog a bath. Pet Paws is $15-per-dog, the price isn't contingent on time- a good deal for bigger dogs, maybe not as much for smaller ones. They also have a dryer station with different brushes for after the wash. What I like about Pet Paws is the convenience- its nice to be able to wash your dog and not have to deal with the "clean up" afterward- cleaning up the tub and washing the towels- all that jazz. Definitely will be back to Pet Paws!
