    We all miss the Winston location, but we were happy to visit in GSO to see and pet the cats and kittens they have lounging around and awaiting adoption! The catpuccino was pricey but also good. Staff was friendly, and the venue was clean and aesthetically pleasing with all the cat decor! And of course, the cats were a large army, forcing us into surrender to pet and scratch them in only the correct places, as referenced on the chart!

    The website is very clear in their expectations, prices, times and policies. Please read before you book. They have a waiver you complete (not tedious at all). If you have on socks, you can wear your socks. If you have on shoes, they have shoe covers. Be mindful to not let the cats escape. This is the cutest concept. Their cafe is located in the back and separate from the cats. You can tell the cats are well cared for and have a loving environment. I enjoyed my Americano coffee while the kitties frolicked about. The policies in place are to keep you and the cats safe. I really loved the decor and the cats are so well behaved. I will definitely consider adopting from them. The coffee barista was so friendly. You could tell the other ladies were very knowledgeable. We will definitely return.

    The café drinks are all very good, the ambiance and atmosphere is very inviting and relaxing, and the cats are all around a joy. The staff are very inviting and friendly, and happy to assist! Very good spot to visit and work, even just sitting in the café.

    A cat's purse one of my favorite sounds in the entire world it immediately lowers my blood pressure makes me feel content inside. My little guy wanted to visit all the cats at the café so for a small fee you can purchase some time and go in and play with all the cats. This is a nonprofit organization and it helps to find homes for cats that would otherwise be neglected and left to die on the street or euthanized. The cats were all clean, which is nice, and there are a lot of fun spaces to chill and just watch them in their own environment. There is a café in the back where you can snag a coffee or something

    We had a great time at Crooked Tail Cat Cafe. It was a random stop on our drive but a pleasant one. We spent $7 per person for half an hour with the cats. We met sweet adoptable cats and the space was clean and smelled amazing. We ordered coffee from their vegan menu and spent some quality time with the cats. They give you a rundown on the house rules and have you sign a waiver before you enter. The staff was kind an knowledgeable about the cats and the coffee was great too. We would certainly recommend stopping by if you are in town.

    I always love visiting cat cafes in new cities or towns that I visit. This one was very nice and clean inside, the employees/company really take good care of their cats. They have a cafe attached in the back, which is where you go to wait before your designated time slot is ready. I got a crème brûlée latte and it was good! Their cafe also has a mini shop of goodies you can buy like socks or shirts or trinkets. I would recommend this place. It was probably around $11 per adult I believe? Fairly priced!

    the best experience! i came from california and needed some cat TLC. i recommend this place to all kitty lovers! also ordered a caramel hot cocoa:)

    This place is always a pleasure to walk by and even better to pay the small fee to enter for 30 minutes to and hour time spans or more. The fee is to help foster the cats that are there up for adoption. And there is a cafe in the back to purchase drinks and maybe snacks to bring to the front while you can enjoy the cats. There were quite a lot of cats and some kittens there that seems mostly at peace, friendly and playful with people entering the cafe. I've heard some people complain about the place not smelling well but I can tell you that they place smelled very clean and not like a liter box or a bunch of cats. Pre COVID times they would have events to do yoga or other activities with the cats, but has been put on pause for the time being. I am very tempted to add to my family of a cat and two little dogs when I visit here for the cats up for adoption. You can play with them in the mean time and help them with the costs of sheltering them there. It was very worth the small fee.

    Cute Buddy was playful after his nap

    We had so much fun there. Buddy was under the table napping but he was so kind for letting us pet him. A few cats/kittens don't like petting pass their neck though so I recommend just softly rubbing/patting their head. It would be nice if the cats have a spicy or sweet level on their profile on the overhead TV that has their bio, I love that addition of their bio by the way, it's such a great idea. I have suggested to one of the workers there that it would be so great if they sell cute little cards or pictures of the cats name and maybe more of their bio, like their favorite thing to do or Fave food or treat. I would've definitely bought one of Buddy's picture for sure! His white mustache is so distinct, cute, and charming! He's so playful for a full grown cat~! I'm such a fan! It would be great if there was a warm light to the place, a cute snack/treat dispenser would be such a nice touch too, I know I would've spent money on it, but I hope that these ideas helped, it'd help thrive for sure!

    I really enjoyed my visit to Crooked tail café. It is very booked out Saturday so I just went by myself. I spent an hour. The kitties are very well taken care of . The visits were well planned and there was enough room for people/ cats to interact comfortably. They encourage adoption so I am planning to go again to meet a few same old and potential new cute kitties

    Let me preface by saying I am not a cat person but I do love the concept... a little jealous they don't have one for dogs bc I would be there everyday. We went in for coffee only on our work break. We walked in and a worker escorted us back to the coffee lounge and told us we could look with our eyes not touch the cats.... you have to pay an additional fee if you want to hang out and play with the cats. I do like that they have a separate place to drink your coffee I got the Calico specialty coffee which was very good!

    I found NC Yorkie rescue after loosing my senior dog of 15 years. My main contact person was…read moreCharna. Through her I leaned how to navigate the waters so to speak. Speaking of Charna alone at this point, she was always there for me. I was able to reach her at any time via text to ask questions. She listened to my request and did her very best to let me know when any pup came in that might be a fit. From what I have seen all of the fosters in this group try very hard to work with the dogs long enough to provide you with good information on their pups and then they try very hard to match you with a pup that best meets your needs. They want to make certain that when a doggy goes out with you it is a good match but if some unknown reason presents itself they are careful to have you sign paperwork that states that this pup wii return to them. That way pups do not migrate to people who have not been properly vetted. Speaking of the money that is charged for their pups, they are merely trying to recover cost for the pups who come in with many health issues. They provide immediate medical help, including surgeries etc to make sure that these pups are given the very best chance at living well. Their fosters provide detailed info about the habits (both positive and negative) of their foster pups. Again, this is part of the effort to make the very best fit for you and you new pet. You only need to look on their Facebook page to see the happy faces of the families who have gotten their new baby from NC Yorkie. You need only look at the faces of the happy new adopted pups to see that their lives have just changed forever. I know these people work tirelessly in an effort to save pups and rescue them from bad situation and give them their very best happily ever after.

    From the first day my wife and I contacted NC Yorkie Rescue we were met with nothing but…read moreprofessionalism and kindness They made it perfectly clear that their primary goal was to unite a dog with a new owner who would provide an environment would foster security, well being, and love. Once we had filled out the forms and sent the required pictures of you home, we met our dog and fell in love with him. Since that time we have received several calls from NC Yorkie Rescue. Each pleasant call was a check to be sure everything was doing OK. The callers wanted to be sure he fit into our family as well as to find out if we were fitting into his life. The fact that our dog is only part Yorkie never enters the equation, he is just perfect for us. We couldn't be more pleased with the services we received from the caring people at NC Yorkie Rescue or the pleasure we enjoy from our new pet.

It was like pulling teeth to get info from the staff about the 7 month old kitten we wanted and eventually did adopt. 2 of the staff members were borderline rude. The cat area was not sanitary. There were litter boxes for when all of the cats are in the common area that were filled with poop and staff were sitting at there desks instead of cleaning up. The floor needed to be sanitized. I will continue my monthly donations. They will soon be moving to a new location. I consider my experience as rescuing rather than just adopting and I say this with great sadness. I encourage people to adopt from them just so the rescued animals get into good homes. They need that very much. So please adopt from them. They need an overhaul but still do great community work.

The store was pretty large, in my opinion and FILLED with anything you could imagine that you'd need for your pet. They have hand sanitizer available right at the entrance for COVID, along with a statement on the door that they require masks upon entering as well. The left side of the store has plenty of dog food, toys, clothing, and gifts. The right side has everything for cats such as huts (average price of $80), natural toys, leashes, food, raw diet food, treat toppers, and clothing. I'm getting more in depth with the cat side since we only have a cat and were shopping on that side only. The woman, who I assume is the owner, was EXTREMELY nice with helping us find the perfect food for our Bengal. She took her time explaining everything to us in great detail, and never once rushed us. She really made us feel like a valued customer! The amount of information she knew about the different products of food they sell blew.. our.. minds. The information she was giving us ranged from where it came from, what the benefits were, what fit our cat the most, how the brand makes their food.... everything! She knew her stuff, that's for sure! She was extremely helpful and wanted to make sure we were completely satisfied, and never once tried to pressure us into buying anything. She was very open minded and positive with how she interacted with us! The prices are very reasonable. They are fully stocked with every item they sell. They do some small discounts if you buy in bulk. It's extremely organized with how they have the layouts of their products throughout the store. You'll definitely walk out of this store with something in your hand. It looked like they were even doing a photo shoot with Santa and your pet in a closed in room as well! I'm overall VERY impressed with our whole experience. We will definitely be coming back and supporting this business. The customer service we got is half of the experience, and knowing you're getting the exact thing that your pet needs is the best feeling. They really know everything about their products.
