Purringtons Cat Lounge boasts a unique concept where patrons can sip on ethically sourced coffee while mingling with adorable felines who roam freely throughout the whimsical space. Established in 2013, Purringtons has become a beloved institution in the city. The shop’s walls are adorned with cat-centric artwork, and the furniture has been carefully designed to provide ample lounging areas for both humans and their furry companions. Co-founders Amanda and Julie founded Purringtons with the mission of providing a space where people could connect with animals, reduce stress, and enjoy a cozy coffee experience. Over the years, the shop has become a gathering place for cat enthusiasts, book clubs, and even yoga classes. The coffee at Purringtons is just as notable as the feline ambiance. The shop sources its beans from local roasters like Stumptown and Heart and offers a variety of specialty lattes, cappuccinos, and cold brews. Guests can also indulge in a selection of pastries, sandwiches, and cat-shaped cookies. Purringtons is not just a coffee shop; it’s a haven for cats and the people who love them. The shop has partnered with multiple animal shelters, giving cats a second chance at finding forever homes. Through adoption events and fundraisers, Purringtons has helped over 600 cats find their purr-fect match. As the shop celebrates its 10th anniversary, Amanda and Julie reflect on the incredible journey that Purringtons has been on. They credit their success to the dedicated staff, passionate clientele, and the undeniable charm of their feline companions. “We’re so proud of what we’ve built over the past decade,” said Amanda. “Purringtons is more than just a coffee shop; it’s a community that celebrates the joy and unconditional love that cats bring into our lives.” To commemorate its anniversary, Purringtons will be hosting a series of special events and promotions throughout the year. Cat-themed trivia nights, adoption drives, and limited-edition merchandise are just a few of the things that patrons can look forward to. As Portland’s quirky coffee scene continues to thrive, Purringtons Cat Lounge remains a beacon of feline-themed delight. With its cozy ambiance, ethical coffee, and adorable cats, the shop is poised to continue enchanting coffee lovers and cat enthusiasts alike for many years to come.
