Purrology Cat Cafe 5343 Florida Avenue South, Lakeland, FL 33813

"I just had my 16th birthday here and I’ve never been happier! We come in and the owner immediately greets us, giving us the rundown and rules. She then sets up an area solely for my cake and presents, helps my mom set up, and even opens up a brand new pack of table cloth for us. The atmosphere is so relaxing and welcoming. Various Taylor Swift eras played throughout the hour we were there, which was so fun— and I’m not even a Swiftie! The cats were all so adorable and playful, and one even chased my mom around whenever she got up. The cats are so happy and clearly well taken care of. The owner even offered treats for us to give to the cats, which was obviously so adorable to see. When our hour in the room was up, the owner calmly told us she needed to set up for the next group, and proceeded to see us out to the main area. She was so sweet and allowed us to do presents and cake in the cafe, and even started a tab for my mom to buy trinkets and drinks for my friends and me. Overall, we had SO MUCH fun and I’m ready to go back. If you’d like to test before adoption, or even just hang out with some kitties like we did, this is the place to go!"

"Took my granddaughter 4, with my daughter to Purrology. Perfect place to find a fit for your family. A few choices ,but decision was made easy when 'Pete' found them. He is lovable, loves to lay next to my granddaughter. They run and play. Or just watch TV together. Yes! He watches tv. He is 6 months old. I had the Chai tea which was delicious . I would recommend a visit. Whether you are looking for a feline. Or just want snuggles."

"It's an absolute joy going to Purrology Cafe! If you're a cat person, you'll be in heaven. It's great place to grab a delicious coffee or tea then head into the lounge to relax, play and snuggle with the cats and kittens. A huge plus is that they work with a local rescue helping to find forever homes (saving them from euthanasia). Kristina, the owner and her staff are all so friendly and attentive. The cats are well taken care of and seem to be very happy. I highly recommend going if you are looking to adopt or just to spend time with some fabulous felines:) Thank you Kristina for bringing Purrology to our community!"

"I will start off by saying that somehow even before going and looking up reviews and website from Google Maps that I did not catch that it was going to cost $11 (or $12 I can’t remember) per person so we drove for 40 mins ,7 of us to go and hang out at a cafe that we thought would just have cats hanging around but that was not the case. So on top of paying for drinks for everyone I also paid admission for everyone and then was told that it was going to be a 40 min wait because we did not set a prior reservation which again, I somehow missed in the reviews that you needed to do this before coming, so that was another bummer. When we were finally able to get in with the cats it was neat and it was an experience but having cats at home I honestly would not have paid to hang out with cats had I had known before hand. I will say it is super neat that they adopt the cats out and potential cat parents can spend time getting to know the cats before hand (if they pay) and I did appreciate the barista coming in and giving us an introduction to each cat. The coffee was decent and I suppose if you followed the rules before hand and knew what you were getting into and didn’t get to have time anywhere else with cats or you wanted a really neat place to hang out while you are deciding if cat ownership is for you then this place would be a 4-5 star type of trip. I was just under the impression that cat cafes were something different."

"Such an amazing place! Took my daughters, one of their friends and my niece there today and they were so happy. The kitties are so well taken care of but are are also up for adoption. ❤️ They have coffee, lemonades, teas and the staff is so awesome. Definitely a family feel. Will be bringing the girls back very soon as who doesn’t love coffee and loving from sweet kitties."
