Fearless Kitty Rescue (FKR) is bringing the first Cat Cafe in Arizona to Fountain Hills with their Cats & Coffee event. Cat Café’s, as they are commonly called, started popping up in large, metropolitan areas to give coffee lovers a chance to enjoy a relaxing beverage with felines in need. Most Cat Cafés bring together adoptable pets with potential adopters. “There is the idea that rescue animals are damaged in some way,” said Fearless Kitty Rescue’s Paula Hatch. “This is so far from the truth. We hope seeing and interacting with adoptable cats in a friendly environment changes peoples’ minds.” At the Cats & Coffee fundraiser, anyone can bring a book, read, and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea while interacting with some of FKR’s adoptable cats. “This is great for our cats but also for our people,” said Hatch, “Research continues to show that pet ownership is good for health, stress relief, and even lowering blood pressure. At the same time, we’re helping socialize our cats. Maybe someone will find their perfect kitty match at one of these events.” Infusion Coffee and Tea of Tempe, AZ is the coffee sponsor. Infusion Coffee and Tea is an independently owned and operated café and roastery. Additionally, there will be a selection of tea, iced coffee, and select pastries, all of which are included in the ticket price.
