The Kitty Corner Social Club
Iowa City’s First Cat Lounge!
Walk-ins available every hour, we don’t require reservations - but if you’re on a schedule, or with a group, it’s best to reserve in advance.
The Kitty Corner Social Club is a unique destination where humans can relax, unwind, and connect with cats available for adoption from Iowa City Animal Care And Adoption Center, Dubuque Regional Humane Society, CCLAW, and Scott County Human Society.
Cats arrive Monday!
Tuesday - Sunday open for visits + snuggles
Adoptions are reviewed + approved EVERY Thursday.
Take home day is Sunday 5 - 6 pm.
All cats are spay/neutered, microchipped, current on vaccines appropriate for age (under 2 lbs. will require rabies vaccine updates). Adoption fees are $150 per cat.
Have questions about our cat lounge? You can get all the details here or stop by and see us at 20 South Clinton Street in downtown Iowa City.
HOURS
MONDAY - Closed for cat naps
TUESDAY - SATURDAY 10 am - 9 pm
SUNDAY 10 am - 5 pm
We (really) hope you like cats.
