FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Curiousity Helped The Cat.... Here's Our FAQ:
Does it cost anything?
Scruffy’s Cafe has a cover charge of $10 during the week and $12 during the weekend. We need to be able to provide a loving space for our rescues while they wait for their forever homes.
Will you have kittens?
Yes! We are partnered with Humane Society for our rescues. We foster both cats and kittens at the cafe, and will accept any kitty of any age into our care.
Can I leave with a cat when I visit?
All adoptions are done through Humane Society. If you fall in love with a cat while visiting Scruffy’s Cafe, you can apply online through Humane Society's website. Scruffy's Cafe and Humane Society are working together to ensure that same day adoptions are possible! Please note that all adoption applications are stil vetted, so it may take some time.
Can I bring my cat?
Unfortunately, no. Scruffy’s is a place to hang out with cats that need a home. Our cats are socialized with each other and there’s risks when introducing new cats.
What is your location?
Scruffy's Cafe is at 1015 North Broadway, Knoxville, TN 37917. We are so proud to call North Knoxville our home.
How are you adjusting to Covid-19?
We’re doing everything we can to keep our community safe. To practice social distancing we will only be allowing 14 people in the cafe at a time. Due to the small group size, we’ll be reservation only while this is in place. We will be posting later today a link to our website so you can reserve your spot. We have hand sanitizer throughout the cafe and will be constantly cleaning. Your safety means everything to us.
Is it sanitary to have food and cats in the same space?
Our food and drinks do not include cat hair. The cafe and cats are in separate spaces. All food is individually wrapped to further ensure sanitary measures.
Can I bring my kids?
Yes, we love children! On any day of the week including weekends, you can bring the starry-eyed child in your life! Ages 2+ are welcomed any time. If you have a child younger than 2 years of age, please give us a call so we can work out acomodations.
Are your cats adoptable?
