Kitty Kingdom Cat Café
565 Cedar Rd, Chesapeake, VA
Crema's Take
“Kitty Kingdom Cat Café blends specialty coffee with a heartwarming adoption mission, letting you sip traditional drinks while lounging with adoptable cats in a genuinely welcoming space. The staff consistently goes out of their way to create a kind atmosphere that appeals to families and solo visitors alike, making it as much about supporting a good cause as it is about finding your next favorite coffee spot. It's the kind of place where you'll lose track of time playing with kittens while your pour-over gets cold—and honestly, that's exactly the point.”

We visited Kitty Kingdom Café with high hopes, as we have been here before and have relatives who have successfully adopted cats from this café. Unfortunately, this visit was much less than stellar. The staff member working the register was not very friendly, which set a disappointing tone right away. More concerning, while in the adult cat section, my daughter was bitten and scratched by a cat. We fully understand that signing a waiver means there is some risk involved when interacting with animals. However, what was upsetting was the lack of concern or empathy shown afterward, especially given that a child was injured. The incident was unprovoked, and at the very least, we expected staff to check on her and acknowledge what happened. That said, I do want to note that the woman who helped me with our reservation over the phone was kind and professional. That interaction was a bright spot in an otherwise disappointing visit. We truly want to support organizations that help cats find loving homes, but this experience left us hesitant to return.
What a treat this was! Found Kitty Kingdom on accident. You can visit the cats and play, give them love all while supporting a beautiful cause. The staff is so kind. Such a pawwsitive & unique experience. Can’t wait to come back. Disclaimer: you may just want to adopt them all because they are such love bugs!
I am disappointed to see any negative reviews of this place as that may impact the adoption of the cats. We just moved to Chesapeake and checked them out a few times. All the staff have been friendly and seem to care a lot about all the cats. It is a much nicer environment for the animals than being in cages. All of the cats looked well cared for, and seem happy. Please, for the sake of all the cats trying to find loving homes, give them a chance and let’s uplift those places trying their best to make a difference in the lives of these animals. The coffee was good, and I was more than happy to support a business working so hard to make a difference. We adopted a AMAZING kitty today and the adoption process is so sweet, my kids got to sign his adoption certificate and got to turn the number on the adoption counter. Thank you for what you are doing, and thank you for helping us find the second best friend for our family. We adore our new kitty 💜💜
Cutest place ever!!!! Today my mom took me and my 11 year old daughter here and we had a great experience. All the cats were adorable and super nice. I was impressed with how everything looked inside, nice and clean. They had some little bakery type stuff and teas and coffee. Such a cute idea. I'm glad we went. The girl who was working today was very kind and helpful.
I went to visit KKCC today and it was awesome! The staff were kind and helpful, going above and beyond to provide quality service. The cats and kittens were unbelievably cute and cuddle-friendly. I ordered two drinks and they were super tasty! The rooms were also very clean and the atmosphere was quite nice. Parking was accessible too, which was a huge bonus!
