When it comes to clothing selection you are COVERED!! If you need something more upscale or functional for work there are so many options. The KIDS are covered too.

Review Visit: July 25th, 2016…read more Calico Cat is located on the ever-popular Seminary street in Galesburg, IL. Offering gifts, odds and ends, candy, and a vast assortment of decor for your home. I visited the Calico on my first trip to Galesburg with a group of friends. They showed me around the town and we ended the trip at Calico Cat. It has a large amount of cool things that, if money weren't an issue, I would have all over my apartment. The staff is beyond amazing and they just offer so much! Candles, fudge, coloring books, wall art, socks... the list is almost endless. I have gotten Espresso fudge each time I have gone back and it is fantastic. Be warned though, they have a lot of cool stuff, but they are also pricey. But that is the price you pay for a niche gift shop with so many cool things. Sadly, I do not really have many photos from inside the store. But I will try and update with some as I go back.
