We are bringing a new craft event to the lounge: diamond painting! It’s easy, simple to learn, relaxing, and fun. Join us for 90 minutes at the lounge on Sunday, July 14th (2:30-4pm) for an afternoon of snacks, crafts, and cats. You won’t finish your project in one sitting but you’ll get to take everything home with you. It’s easy to store and not messy like traditional painting. Come join us!

Both of the Ventura locations of Urbane Cafe will be hosting fundraisers for us on Wednesday, June 19, from 4-9pm. If you go in person show them the flyer on your phone or hand them a paper flyer which we will have available at the lounge. If you order online that day between 4-9pm, use the code “fundraisers: when you check out so we can get credit. Thank you for supporting us, and thank Urbane Cafe as well!
Ever wonder how much food and litter we use at the lounge?
With 10 adult cats in the lounge we will go through roughly 7 cases of 5.5-ounce cans of food or 13 cases of 3-ounce cans of food in one month. We feed them twice a day and do our best to ensure that each cat is getting nutritious food. We put out 2.5-3 cups of dry food daily as well.
Each kitten at the lounge will go through roughly 1.25 cases of 5.5-ounce cans of kitten food in a month and around 1/4 cup of dry food daily.
We use at least 200 pounds of litter monthly, especially when we have kittens in our care.
Visits to the lounge as well as purchases and financial donations help us keep up with the costs of running the lounge and medical expenses. Donations of food, litter, and other supplies mean we can direct the money we raise to hard costs such as rent, utilities, insurance, and so on.
We keep our Amazon and Chewy wishlists up to date with current needs. Thank you for choosing to support us in whatever way you can!
We are hosting another Cats and Crafts event on Saturday, May 18th, from 2:30-4pm. You bring the project you’re working on, we provide the Keurig, snacks, and cats! $25 each, and ages 15 and up. Reserve your space online: www.cassiescatsandkittens.org/events
Our Valentine hearts are back! This year they will be displayed on the plexiglass facing the main lounge. Each heart is $14 and you can write as much as you’d like on your heart. Our goal is 100 hearts! You can honor a cat (or cats) who is currently at the lounge; a cat (or cats) who has been adopted; your own cats (past and/or present); or any other cherished kitties in your life.
You can stop by the lounge in person or you can donate online and let us know what you’d like written on your heart(s). On the Donate page you can enter a custom amount ($14 per heart). When you check out there is a box for comments where you can let us know how to personalize your heart(s). You can also use Venmo (username is cassies-cats).
