The Original
Sushi
Our first rescue — the one who changed everything. Adventurous, reserved, loving, mysterious, and smart. His name was Houdini before we brought him home. Fitting.
Our Story
Good Coffee. Good People.
Greater Purpose.
Four Cats Café started with something bigger than coffee — a belief that a neighborhood shop should be where people belong.
It started with four cats who needed a second chance. Each one found a home, and in return reminded us that the smallest acts of kindness can create the biggest impact. That became the foundation of Four Cats.
We're not here to build another coffee chain. We're here to build gathering places where neighbors become friends, local businesses are celebrated, and every visit helps strengthen the community around us.
Every drink is handcrafted. Every pastry is thoughtfully selected. Every guest is welcomed like a regular. And every decision we make is guided by one simple question:
How can we leave our community better than we found it?
Meet the Four
The cats who started it all.
Four rescued cats. Four second chances. One reminder that showing up for someone — even someone small — changes things.
The Tuxedo
Kevin
Rescue #2. Kevin and Sushi were inseparable the moment they met. Loving, chill, endlessly personable — the coolest tuxedo cat you'll ever meet. Wants to be held. Always.
The Protector
Sally
Rescue #3. Homeless, pregnant, and lost her whole litter before the shelter took her in. Took months to trust her brothers — now she's the protector of the house, no matter her size.
Coming

Finn

From the Founder
"We built Four Cats to be the place I always wished existed in my neighborhood — warm, welcoming, and quietly making things a little better for the people around it."
— Founder, Four Cats Café
More Than Coffee
A place where teachers stop before class, first dates begin, families gather, and small businesses feel at home.
Community First
We partner with local rescues, schools, churches, youth sports, small businesses, and neighborhood makers.
Crafted With Intention
Specialty coffee, fresh bakery, thoughtfully-sourced ingredients, protein-forward options, friendly faces.
Our Promise
We won't try to be the biggest. We'll simply work every day to be someone's favorite.
