Colony Cafe

Hello friends. We are truly touched by the reactions to our closing announcement. Your kind words of encouragement, posted photos of adopted cats, and shared Colony memories have brought us joy -- thank you. We also received some very generous offers of financial help. These are wonderful, thoughtful proposals, but we have made our decision and we are ready to move on.

For now, back to cats 🐱🐱🐱 We would love to find the remaining Loft cats homes in the next couple of weeks so they don’t have to be returned to Animal Friends. And because they all deserve loving families of their own.

To learn about the Loft cats, head to our FB photo album or website (linked in the blue Learn More button above) and read info on each kitty. If you are serious about adopting, complete an online application here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/AFI/Cat
A safe meet-and-greet at the cafe will need to be scheduled prior to final approval.

❗️Important: many of the current Loft cats have come from hoarding situations and are very nervous. It will take a bit of leap of faith to bring one of these sweet souls into your home, because extra patience and time will be needed to help socialize these special cats.

🎉BONUS: Because many generous people have pre-paid adoption fees recently, all of our current kitties are free to adopt (and the amount left over will be donated to Animal Friends)! A very special thank you to Pittsburgh Good Deeds, who immediately covered the fees for nine cats when he learned we were closing 👏
