Pawsitivitea CNY Cafe & Cat Lounge

Cute cats! Peaceful and chill atmosphere. Cafe is separate from the cat room by a set of double doors, so the kitties don't get out (but they try!) There are a few simple rules to understand for cat safety. I went mid-afternoon on a weekday and was the only visitor. Cafe has tons of options. LGBT+ friendly. Go to their site and book in advance or see what special events they have coming up!

Cute cafe with beverages and cookies, some cat toys and items available to buy. Cat room was great, clean, cats were all nice and most need homes. If you’re looking to adopt please check them out. We spoke to the owner who was fabulous, loved all the cats and knew all the history behind them. Great time! Highly recommend!

I bring my son here because he has a special love for cats. It started as surprise visit over a year ago and turned into the thing he requests as reward for good grades and completed school projects. The cats are obviously well cared for and happy. When we are ready to adopt again this will be our spot but until then we enjoy coming to visit the cats and play for a while.

My daughter and I absolutely loved playing with the cats. I had never heard of the concept of having a cafe and getting to play with all the adoptable cats and kittens. It’s a wonderful addition to the community. As the cats get adopted new ones come in it’s a great partnership between the shelters and Pawsitivity cafe. I also need to add the drinks we had at the cafe were delicious. This place truly inspired me I would love to open a cafe like this.

This was my first time visiting the Pawsitivitea CNY Cat Cafe and Lounge. Went for knitting club. There were 15 cats and kittens and plenty of places to sit. A small drink of my choice from the menu was included with the purchase of my visit. I got a hot chai latte that was delicious. I was able to take it into the cat lounge with me (food must be eaten in the cafe area). A variety of delicious looking baked good were also available for purchase. My friend came with me and, after listening to the guidelines (wear socks, don’t pick up the cats but if they come and sit on your lap, that’s fine), we took our shoes off and entered the cat lounge through a set of doors. We were immediately greeted by several kitties and many others came to lay next to us or on our laps on the couch while we chatted and knitted for the next two hours. The cafe and lounge are clean and well maintained. The owner is super awesome, happy to answer all of our questions about the cats and she checked on the cats while we were there. My friend and I were both very happy with our visit and look forward to returning.

Pawsitivitea is a great place to hang out. It's very cozy and has lots of friendly kitties to play with while enjoying a cup of coffee or tea. I would highly recommend if you are an animal lover.

I didn't have any of the food due to my disability causing food aversions. The cat lounge was purrfect and the staff were very helpful and kind. This is my new favorite place and I plan on bringing all of my friends and hopefully find a kitty for my cat😸

This place is the perfect example of what a cat café should be like! Set rules explaining how to approach and interact with the cats, large and delicious food and drink menu, affordable, cute crafts, LGBT+ and minority friendly, and a HUGE room for the cats to roam with NO cages!

My boyfriend and I went during the weekday special and fell in love with a cat in particular who we are now trying to adopt and will continue to visit to spend quality, relaxing time with these beautiful furry friends

Couldn't recommend this place enough. I went during the Kitten Shower event and everyone was so unbelievably nice. A volunteer from the Oswego County SPCA came into the cat room and passed out treats for everyone to give to the kitties. You can really tell that everyone there truly cares about the cats. Excited to go back again :)

My daughter is a huge cat person and loved every minute. I am a "so-so" cat person and overall it was a great experience. Slight cat smell, but didn't notice it after being there for a while. Could have been way worse, and considering there was 16+ cats, and two litter boxes (that I could see) it surpassed my expectations. Staff was amazing and the painting event was so much fun.

My tween and I had a wonderful time visiting all the cats. It was so calm and relaxing in the cat room and we really enjoyed our time there. We enjoyed several of the beverages on the menu and had some yummy treats on our way out. We are really looking forward to doing a paint night soon!

It’s always great to support people who are positive (sorry, pawsitive) and provide an important service to the community. And what better way to find a little calm in today's world but to chill in a roomful of cute kitties!

There’s always a nice selection of coffee, tea and goodies and many themed events if you like games, yoga, movies, etc. Highly recommend!

I loved it here!! The only reason I have 3 stars for service was the person when I first walked in was a bit rude. Twitchy, but I understand they were busy. Just felt a little bit rushed, especially they looked annoyed when I said it was my first time. In general, I liked it and would go again!

Five stars ALL AROUND! Me and my boyfriend went (we did reserve an hour time slot) and it was AMAZING! The owner (i believe) was there and they were so friendly and welcoming. They explained to us what to do and how to care for the kitties while in their space. The cats had a nice area to roam in and looked so well taken care of. They were so interested and gave lots of kisses on your hands (the littles even did some nibbling) It was so peaceful that i honestly couldve fallen asleep to the cat’s purring asmr! We got a Vanilla chai and a cinnamon roll and both were *chefs kiss*. I never liked chai but this was the best one Ive ever drank and i’d happily drink again especially seeing the cats. I have been looking for a ESA and may look into adopting one of those lovely cats for my own *crossing fingers*.

I loved visiting Pawsitivitea! My partner and I had a great time hanging out with the cats, it was very peaceful in the cat lounge. The cats were very soft and loved getting pet! I got an oatmilk vanilla latte and it was delicious! I can’t wait to come back!

This cat cafe was all the pet therapy my group could have asked for! When we arrived for our reserved hour, the cats seemed to be in nap time, but were very happy to have the attention we gave them. All of the cats were very friendly and well behaved and seemed to respond well to all ages. The staff was also very nice and made some awesome hot beverages. They even have a gluten free scone and vegan goodies from Fat Cats (but nothing both vegan AND gluten free, at least when I was there). Overall a lovely experience on a gray day while traveling in the area for work.

We booked online and reserved an hour for our group. The cats were super friendly and sweet. We really enjoyed our time with them! I didn't buy any food or drinks this time, but maybe next time! Food looked yummy. Staff were very friendly. Thank you for this experience!!

This is the purrfect place! 😸 We were first greeted by the friendly staff who quickly took our order and explained the rules for visiting the kitties. The treats we order were scrumptious and the tea was delightful. Then on to visit the sweet and friendly kitties. What a treat! So fun to interact with these fuzzy guys! A great place to be present, relaxed and mindful. My daughter was feeling overwhelmed that afternoon with her course work at collge. After some time with the furry friends she felt relaxed, calm and recharged! Highly recommend! Go to their website to make a reservation for your visit!

Such a great business. Lovely organizes environment. The treats and drinks were super delicious - even have bunch of vegan options. The cat room was immaculately clean. No scent of cat at all and you don’t leave covered in cat hair. I highly recommend going but make a reservation for cat time beforehand just to make sure you are able to play with them.

Pawsitivitea Cat Cafe was a wonderful experience! Wonderful people working there, and a great selection of treats and drinks. The cats were super friendly, and there was even a book with all of their bios and pictures (super helpful for identifying the cats). It was a great setting to meet the kitties and spend an hour relaxing.
