The spot is awaiting 501c3 status, but plans to open this winter. “The AUsome Cat Cafe brings rescue cats and neurodiversity together, helping to find meaningful employment for adults on the autism spectrum and loving homes for rescue cats,” the website explains.
Customers will be welcomed to work, connect, and enjoy their “favorite beverages and snacks in a relaxing atmosphere filled with enchanting cats.”
AUsome Cat Cafe is the project of Andrea Gamble, a behavior analyst whose passion for individuals with autism has been a common thread throughout her life, including her previous ownership of a therapy center for those with developmental disabilities.
