Visits are $20 on weekdays and $25 on weekends for a 50 minute session and must be booked online in advance. If you cancel your order with 48 hour notice and need a refund, please email thepurrfectbean@gmail.com.

  • Cats and coffee - Name a more iconic duo?! Come into our café on the ground level and order your latte or tea then head upstairs to our Cat Lounge and hang out with adoptable felines. Be sure to make a reservation to secure your spot!

    Don’t have time to hang with the cats? No problem – our café is completely separate from the Cat Lounge and you can pop in anytime and grab your favorite drink!

    Reserve your visit in our Cat Lounge under the “How To Schedule” tab - $20 on weekdays and $25 on weekends for a 50 minute visit. Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. No children under 4 years old.

  • All cats are adoptable through Purring Hearts VA. Follow the link to their website on the bottom of the page to fill out an adoption application! 

  • Purring Hearts VA is a foster based rescue located in RVA! They are the rescue division of Lionhearts, Inc and are affiliated with the Kincheloe Clinic in Fredericksburg VA and Ashland VA. They prioritize rescuing vulnerable cats and work with shelters in the Richmond area to pull cats that are in danger of euthanasia or that would do poorly in a shelter environment. They also help community members with concerns such as unmanaged populations, found cats, or situations where the cat can no longer be cared for. As a 100% volunteer run organization, they rely on donations and volunteers in order to continue their life saving work!

  • All of the food and beverages at our café are vegan. The founder of The Purrfect Bean is extremely committed to animal welfare and is vegan herself! The values of both the founder and the café strongly align – the space was created with the intention of promoting animal welfare in ALL aspects, including every product available for consumption being fully vegan. 

  • Our downstairs café is completely separate from the upstairs Cat Lounge. Anyone can come into the café without reservations!

  • The entry fee at a cat cafe supports the care and well-being of the cats, as well as the overall operation of the space. Cat cafes are unique environments that prioritize both animal welfare and guest experience. The fee helps cover essential costs such as food, litter, staff wages, and facility maintenance. Unlike a traditional cafe, there is an added responsibility to ensure that the cats are healthy, comfortable, and well-socialized.

  • Reservations are highly recommended. It is the only way to guarantee that we will have a spot for you when you get here! Walk-ins are subject to availability. Each reservation is per person. If you cancel your reservation 48 hours in advance and require a refund, please email the the purrfectbean@gmail.com

  • Children under the age of 4 are not permitted in the cat lounge. Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

  • A maximum of 10 people are allowed in the cat lounge at one time. This is due to the size of the room and also not to overwhelm the cats. 

  • If you need to cancel your reservation, please do so at least 48 hours in advance. If you cancel your reservation less than 48 hours before your appointment time, your reservation fee will be forfeited. For refunds, please email thepurrfectbean@gmail.com
