This Friday, July 10th, is no normal Friday. It’s National Kitten Day! A day entirely dedicated to appreciating and adopting our furry feline friends. And what better way to celebrate than by giving a kitten a home? Stop by one of the many places where you can adopt a kitten in Charleston on this year’s National Kitten Day!

Their easy adopt system is in place from 12 a.m. – 5 p.m. on weekdays, and 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. on weekends. In response to COVID-19, they’re minimizing the number of people allowed at once and require a face mask to be worn.
Pounce Cat Cafe
Though they’re no longer serving food and Bev to visitors, the Pounce Cat Cafe is still open and filled with cats. Patrons are required to wear a face mask and sanitize before entering the cozy cat sanctuary. While walk-ins are available, they encourage you to book a visit so you can secure a slot. The best part? All of their cats are ready for adoption! Fall in love with one of their felines and take em home all in the same day.
