The perfect addition to our little vacation here in Chattanooga. Definitely worth a visit for all cat lovers.

Heartwarming to spend an hour loving on some foster care cats. That's what you can expect from a visit here to the Naughty Cat Cafe located in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Someone on TikTok made a mention to this place and when I discovered you can pay $17 to spend quality time giving affection to 30 cats looking for their forever homes, this was a MUST DO, NON NEGOTIABLE for me, lol. I purchased and reserved my spot online ahead of time at naughtycatcafe.com. Their hours are mostly 11am - 5pm daily with being closed on Monday's and Tuesday's. One noticeable rule that is mentioned by the owner/manager is to not pick up the cats as most of them have been recently spade or neutered. The main room of the cafe is a low key, rustic lounge. It's dimly lit for the benefit of a few of the residents. Veering to the right is an open space with couches and chairs for visitors to sit down on and plenty of window lighting for other cats to watch the happenings outside. I approached this one cat who was lying on her side and we bonded. I showered her with tummy rubs which she gladly accepted. Watching her closing her eyes in total bliss (and trust) had me feeling sentimental in the best way possible. It was pure joy to give this cat some cuddle time. This was actually my first ever visit to a cat cafe. I had heard about them occasionally, but never actually considered stopping inside one. But, this was the perfect time to take a break from my roadtrip travels, just connecting with cats (or animals in general) can have rejuvenating powers that is healthy for the soul. Overall, it was a blessing to spend an hour with some lovable cats. Too bad I'm not anywhere from the Chattanooga, Tennessee area but I am thankful that there are shelter/foster homes like this Naughty Cat Cafe to give them exposure to visitors who may consider adopting them, so they can live a quality life. Thank you for having me. read more

My family and I LOVE The Naughty Cat Cafe! We've been on several occasions. The ambiance is beautiful and calm, the cats are so friendly, the environment is very well kept, and you can tell the kitties are very well taken care of. The owners are very passionate about animals; it's a wonderful place to adopt from. Also, you get a free drink with your visit and sometimes treats to give to the fur babies. Make sure you book online because spots fill quickly! We will definitely continue to revisit! read more

Not a strip club, just a totally awesome cat cafe and one of the highlights of our trip to Cattanooga! The two owners are the only staff and work 70+ hours/week to ensure almost 50 adorable, adoptable cats have a great foster experience. There are two huge rooms full of cats, cat sleeping spots, hilarious cat decorations, and good vibes. All of the cats were super friendly and funny and love to come up to you and get pets :) I cannot recommend this experience enough! It is so worth the price (100% of the entrance fee goes to the cats!), I just wish we could have stayed there all day. It's really important that you book at least a few days in advance, they don't really do walk ins because it's so busy all the time. There's a little bit of parking out front, but be a little early to make sure you get a spot. The ticket also includes a free soda/coffee/tea, and they have adorable stickers and merch for purchase. All in all, a great experience and definitely worth a visit!! read more

I am not an early adopter on the cat cafe phenomenon, which seems relatively recent to me. I like cats, and my lifestyle makes pet ownership challenging, but the idea of literally just paying to sit in a room with cats still sounds silly to me. This place delivers about as much as you could expect on the concept. Making a reservation in advance was wise, as they were sold out for the day when I actually arrived. The facility was certainly set up in a way that most cats would appreciate, with doors leading to a private litter box area for those cats that don't want the spotlight, multi-tiered beds, cozy cupboards, and plenty of toys. A room was set aside for new cats still accommodating to the setting, which you could go into; the place is clearly meant to acculturate potential adoptees. Of course, cats will be fickle, and some of them preferred not to be petted, but when we humans were provided with cups of treats about halfway through the allotted time, a lot of the sourpusses suddenly decided they were interested in human contact. This also means that the amount of feeding is reasonably controlled; it was only a few treats at a time and the cats were not . A beverage was included, with the option to purchase food (food for humans, that is). As such, I felt they pretty much maximized what they set out to do here. read more

This place is amazing. So many cats to hang with. Very clean and organized. I loved the different rooms. My only issue was there were a few cats who were just not nice. They would scratch and swat unprovoked. It seemed they did it to everyone so I'd guess maybe the owners knew they were a bit feisty. No was injured and I felt safe, but their claws were very long and maybe they needed a break? Most were sweet and friendly. I'd go back in a heartbeat. Wish I lived in the area. A very calming and soothing place. read more

Been here twice n always love getting to pet alllllll the kitties! Staff is always amazing n the cats are always entertaining! When I first seen this place I laughed so hard at their signs in front n giggle every time I pass it. I LOVE that they have binders with the cats n details of them. They show they really care about their cats na who they go to. I wanna adopt so many of them but my only cat is a drama queen n won't like it. Maybe I can drop her off to learn how to play with others I added the Cat Cafe to my binder of must check out places when I meet fellow travelers Those who wrote bad reviews...yes they have a limit number allowed (book a ticket like their site says then), yes there is a cover fee (tho $15 does suck for me ), yes the cats are gonna be cats n sometimes fight n it's not their fault if you can't adopt em either. read more

Naughty Cat Cafe - One of the many cats that are just adorable - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

We just drove over an hour to visit and apparently you have to make reservations and can't walk in!

The man at the front was very friendly when we came in. He informed us that there is a $17 donation to go hang out with the cats for as long as we want, and it comes with a free drink. There is a good selection of canned drinks and hot tea and coffee to choose from. There is also a selection of sweets for sale. Once inside, the atmosphere was both calm and exciting. The cats were all friendly, and the rooms are very well decorated with funny cat artwork on the walls. read more

OMG, such a cute cafe with adorable kitties! We were touring Chattanooga and came across an advertisement for this place. Since we had some time to kill before dinner, we made a reservation to check out the cafe. I love how friendly the staff was and surprisingly, the place was squeaky clean. There were more than 30 cats in the room that were up for adoption, and most of them were so playful! Staff gave us some cat snacks and that really got many of them to actually want to hang out with me! On the coffee table, there is a booklet featuring all the cats from the cafe and what their personalities are like. If I didn't already have two cats of my own, I would've adopted one of them! read more

As a fan of cats and cat cafes, I'd have to say that for sure, Naughty Cat Cafe is a 5 star experience! I happened to be in Chattanooga doing touristy things and spy a billboard for Naughty Cat Cafe at the base of Lookout Mountain. And it claims 32 cats onsite, wow! I've got some time to kill so I sign up for a 2pm session (hour-long for about $16 with taxes) online. Heading on over to Naughty Cat Cafe, it sits in a small plaza and I have no idea what to expect. I'm running late and get greeted by the lady up front and check in with her. She offers me a complimentary soft drink, there are also adult bevvies available for a price. AND she tells me there are FORTY-TWO cats for your petting pleasure. I'm guessing because it's kitten season right now and most shelters are full. The front retail area is pretty cool with all sorts of knick-knacks and cat-focused products. Heading to the back room, you step into a chillaxing living room type area with stuffed couches, chairs, cat tree and even an aquarium. It's calm and dimly lit, a very relaxing space and I spy a couple taking a nap with the kitties. The decor is very nicely done and in tip-top shape. Head to the right and there's a second section that is the sun room. Light, bright and warmer for the kittehs. And overall, these cats are all pretty friendly and chill with each other. I had one hop into my lap pretty quickly and the little cup of cat treats caught their attention. There were about 10 or 12 other cat aficionados in while I was visiting but people spread out and it doesn't feel that busy. Overall I was super impressed with their setup and number of cats they had onsite. And I checked their social feed and apparently they have had over 1,000 cats adopted, cool. So if you're in the area and enjoy felines, Naughty Cat Cafe is a must-do in my opinion. Just make sure you register early enough to get the time slot you need and get your hands ready for some kitty love! read more

Is this heaven?? I had heard about this place and thankfully was in town and made a reservation. I was lucky enough to meet the owners who were pretty impressive on their research on being successful running such a fabulous place. The cost is $17 plus tax which totals $20 for an hour visit. You can fix a coffee, have a soda or water and enjoy the beautiful cats. There are several rooms and they are immaculately clean! They make use of recycled furniture and use creative ways to incorporate cat beds for all the sweet babies. They have a designated area for those who are stressed when joining this community so they may have time to adjust. It is such a wonderful feeling when you sit down and these sweet angles come to great you and sit in your lap. All the cats are available for adoption and are benefiting so much from such a safe place to learn to be a cat again. The lobby has adorable cat themed swag from jewelry, mugs, socks, and stickers. I would suggest supporting this wonderful fostering home and help socialize these beautiful cats. You may fall in love! read more

Clean smell, nice aesthetics, Calm atmosphere and soothing decor. There were plenty of cats and plenty of toys to play with them. The cats were able to get away when they wanted to and generally seemed unconcerned. There isn't much food due to health concerns but what is there taste good and charming. No young children allowed out of concern for the cats, great place to visit and relax with some sweet little kitties. read more

I could not possibly say enough good things about this place. I went with my brother and oh my goodness. You walk into what would be a cute coffee shop under any circumstances, except there are 40 precious cats there too Honestly I was so impressed. All of the cats were gentle and sweet and clearly well taken care of. There was lots of space to interact with them. It was shockingly clean. They only allow 14 people an hour, so you can make your rounds with the cats. All are adoptable, and the staff said they average a cat a day going to it's forever home. All their cats are long term shelter residents, or abused/abandoned babies. I wish I lived in Chattanooga because I would be a weekly visitor read more

it's a cat cafe. it cost $13-$15 to get in. You get a cup of coffee or a soft drink with it. They do sell food and other merchandise. This is their business and so it cost money to go in and they use that money to help take care of the cats. I think when we went there they had around 30 to 40 cats all either neutered or spayed. You come in and there's about three separate rooms and you can take a seat or wander. they do have some toys and you can play with the cats. Half the cats are either sleeping or lounging and the other half are playful. Only one or two may be lap cats. I had a beautiful white cat sit on my lap and she was definitely a lap cat and jumped from person to person lol. All these cats are for adoption. It doesn't smell in there. It's extremely clean. Halfway through they gave us some churros to feed the cats and they absolutely swarm around you lol... careful some don't know how to take treats from humans and make swat at the treat. All the cats are very sweet, but don't pick them up. Some of them get in to Little tiffs with each other and chase each other around. It's definitely a show. I believe you get about an hour for the money you pay. There's a small parking lot outside which is free. If I lived in the area and I wasn't traveling a lot I would definitely adopt the little white cat that sat on my lap. They also have a little book with all the cats names in a little bit about them. The cats are clearly well taken care of. Aside from that, they were full on the Saturday that that we went, but they fit us in at the last block, which is incredibly kind of them. It's definitely stress relief. If I head back that way, I'll definitely visit again! If you're looking for a sweet cat to adopt, but you don't know what you want I would head this way and see the cats they have, and spend some time there, if one tickles your fancy, you may have found your new best friend!! read more

Visiting Chattanooga? Stop here! After visiting historic Point Park on Lookout Mountain, I stopped at the cat cafe on my way to downtown Chattanooga. It was a quick, highly enjoyable stop. The decor is cool, not what you think about cat cafes! Included with admission was a beverage, adult or otherwise. I had a raspberry cider while hanging out with the cats and chatting with other patrons. My visit lasted about 30 or 40 minutes but you can stay longer. Next time I go through Chattanooga, I'm definitely stopping here again. It's a new tourist spot for me! read more

Well...they do great advertising! Kind of. We fell for the excessive signing. Promised our daughter we would come while we were on our mini vacation. Only to have a printed piece of paper hung on the door saying ages 11 and up. Now we have a sobbing seven year old on our vacation. Maybe advertise that on the signage? More than just a tapped piece of paper. Seems like a great idea for a place. We just wouldn't know Also: another thing that's not advertised on any billboard and signs--you have to book times in advance. Okay I think that's everything you actually need to know to be able to go! read more

A cup of organic coffee was provided with the cost of entrance, and they had tea available as well. Make sure you make it to all three rooms- the two main ones, and the smaller one with the cats who are still working on socializing- they were so sweet! The gift shop was adorable as well.
