Cat cafe Crumbs and Whiskers announces opening date

Drop everything you’re doing right meow.

D.C.’s first cat cafe, Crumbs and Whiskers, announced that it will open its doors on Saturday, June 20.

But you’ll have to get in line — in a blog post on the Crumbs and Whiskers website, founder Kanchan Singh revealed that the visiting schedule goes live online on June 18. Members of the cafe’s Gentlemeow’s Club can begin arranging their visits on June 15 while donors that have funded the cafe on the website Kickstarter can register on June 10.

Singh added that there will be a sold-out launch party on June 19 and a series of backstage parties from June 15 to 18 for donors, but don’t worry if you didn’t make the list — you can keep up with the parties with photos and videos that will be posted live on Crumbs and Whisker’s social media pages.

Crumbs and Whiskers first announced that it would open in November.

Located at 3211 O St. NW, the cafe will feature cushioned seating on the ground, so guests can play with cats while enjoying their beverages.
