Denver’s first cat cafe opens without a cat fight

December 15, 2014

The Denver Cat Cafe, the first of its kind in the Mile High City, opened last week at 3929 Tennyson by cooperating with city regulations that could have declawed the project.

Cat Cafe owner Sana Hamelin opened the doors while abiding with city regulations that allow for such an animal with an establishment that serves muffins and pastries made off premise.

The cat-friendly concept, which was first reported in August, is to run a kitty corral, of sorts, where Hamelin has partnered with The Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue to acquire six felines that are up for adoption. Customers can slurp coffee or tea and snack on pre-made snacks while reading, and petting the borrowed four-legged friends.

The cafe includes a retail section with jewelry, craft items, stationary and books. Coffee comes from Solar Roast and muffins and other human goodies are from Martine’s Muffins in the Golden Triangle.

The cat café is open daily starting at 9 a.m. Monday through Saturday and at noon on Sunday. For more information, call or visit the café’s website.
