Milwaukee's first cat cafe to open in summer 2018
Sip & Purr — Milwaukee’s first cat cafe — announced that it has signed a lease with New Land Enterprises at 2021 E. Ivanhoe Place on Milwaukee’s East Side.
Cat cafes — a growing worldwide trend — are a way for customers to enjoy a cup of coffee or snack while “decompressing with a furry friend.”
The Cat Lounge at Sip & Purr will also be a neighborhood cat adoption center. Potential adopters can interact with cats in a relaxing environment and visualize how that cat will fit in at their home.
“There’s a lot of untapped potential to get these cats adopted into loving homes, and that’s exactly what we’re setting out to do,” said Katy McHugh, owner and founder. “Providing the adoptable cats with a stress-free, cage-less living area from the get-go really helps their personalities shine through, ultimately resulting in more adoptions.”
