Very caring staff. We adopted the sweetest little Shi Tzu mix. Adoption process was easy, and…read moreJoanne was extremely helpful with the process. Thank you Peaceable Kingdom.

I just returned from donating some sheets, a comforter, a cat bed, old kitchen towels (for…read morecleanup), most of a 25lb bag of cat litter, a FULL bag of cat food & some cans, a carrier & a pillow to these folks. Probably over 200$ worth of things-just to make a point. While I realize they're run predominantly by volunteers & they're probably stressed and busy, the way I was just treated is terrible. I just had my almost 23 year old cat put to sleep on Monday afternoon after a stroke. I'm devastated but trying to honor him by donating his things-I took the time to launder everything for them yesterday to cut down on their work load after speaking with Patricia on Monday night. Patricia was very kind-also want to make that point. When I arrived, there didn't seem to be any access to the place. Again, I get it, volunteers are busy. I was brushed off by an employee I saw entering the building, who told me to just leave it outside the door & that someone would come and get it. Ok. I stacked his things by the door. I sat in my car & cried. Ten minutes went by. No one came to get the things. I decided to try the front door, just to make sure they were aware the things were there (& , frankly, it was a bit hard for me to just leave the stuff outside in the parking lot). I tried the front door-locked. I decided to just go, but a woman popped out the front door with an immediate attitude-"You need to give us a minute!". I told her, ok, I just left some things for donation, I just had my cat put to sleep on Monday. She asked where I left them & I told her over by the other door. She asked, sharply, "Where? The back door?". I told her no, right around the corner. At this point, this woman had the audacity to ask me "why are you so angry?". My face was swollen, I feel pretty sure it was clear I'd just been crying. I asked if she was serious & she responded, "Yeah! I am!" ZERO empathy for someone grieving the loss of a pet-from someone who works with people & animals. I was stunned, I still am half an hour later. I was planning on returning to adopt from this place when I'm ready for new babies AND to donate time AND money. Not now. I'm absolutely stunned at the way I was just treated. I cannot recommend this place, especially after seeing numerous other reviews from other folks who've been treated similarly.

I adopted one of my cats there and had three of my cats spade by them. Awesome people running the…read moreshelter. Very friendly and clean.

What an amazing place to bring a cat to be fixed,we had a feral mother cat who had kittens,we had…read moresuch a hassle to catch them all at different times,they worked with us to get them fixed,kept them overnight too,and not expensive,always good to donate a little extra,great people!

We camp near Tamaqua and came across this gem this year. We've traveled to the cat cafe in…read moreWilkes-Barre so we had an idea of what this is like. The owner was very welcoming. The coffee selection was decent for a cat cafe with a big selection of flavor syrups to add to your drink. The little gift shop was fairly priced and had a lot of unique things. I loved the little black cat mascot, as we have a few furry voids at home. There was about 16 cats in the room when we went on a Saturday afternoon. You can tell they are well taken care of and that the staff cleans very frequently in there. With the 3 of us and the other family we had enough room that we didn't feel jammed in. There was one orange cutie that kept trying to knock my Niece's drink off the windowsill, and a precious long haired grey cat that claimed my husband's lap for the last half of the hour. We were given wet treat tubes to feed them which all the cats went nuts for and there were plenty of feather wands and toys for us to interact with the ones who wanted to play. The coal theme plays in perfectly to the area and the wagon appears to be the hang out area for the cats. It was a fun experience we plan to do again soon. It's a great cause (socializing and getting cats adopted) and the owner is obviously passionate about the mission.

1/29/23 I had no idea this business was even here! I found a promotional write up when I was…read moreenjoying brunch at The Station. Kim and Ron are the owners of this very friendly business. Their goal is to find homes for these adorable felines and so far have placed 24 cats into forever homes in just three months. As Ron mentioned, you don't do this kind of business to get rich. I think it's more of a vocation. There is coffee and packaged treats available for sale. Not only that but a selection of T shirts, and fun toys for your favorite feline. The real stars here are the wonderful cats. I personally love how the owners tied in the Coal Region history into this modern forward thinking (in all the right ways) business. You will sign a waiver to enter (customary) the cat area. It is themed with all things Coal, like a mine decoration, pick axe and even a "coal wagon" delivery wagon (the cats seem to love it). We stopped by in passing but you may reserve time online. The number of people permitted is six maximum. The only other such cafe I knew of was in Philadelphia. I believe thanks to Covid and lockdowns that went under. The owners are enthusiastic about helping animals and customers visiting. Please support this incredible business and bring your little ones and friends to enjoy these sweet creatures. I did not get pictures of the entrance room but it is organized and colorful.
