Dear Cat Cafe Manila Friends and Family,
Last March 21, 2018, we announced that Cat Cafe Manila will be closing due to difficulties sustaining operations and reached out for help. We received overwhelming support and several offers to continue our cause, and on May 31, 2018, we announced being able to operate beyond May while entertaining the prospect of investors. We extended our lease in our current space for 3 months, which will expire on August 31, 2018.
Unfortunately, the help from the investors is not enough to keep the cafe sustainable and we are unable to push through with a partnership. With Cat Cafe Manila’s current situation, our internal team cannot continue running operations and need much external help to keep the cafe open.
We are deeply saddened to say that Cat Cafe Manila will be closing operations in 189 Maginhawa QC on August 30, 2018. We are still hoping to keep our cause alive and resume operations in a different time and location in the future, if possible. In the meantime, our loving cats will return to CARA as we explore future plans for the cafe. Feel free to send us a message or email us at [email protected] if you or anyone you know might be interested in adopting the cafe.
It has been an amazing journey, we are incredibly grateful for everyone’s support and patronage. We take pride in opening the hearts of many to our catvocacy and we’ll continue to work for our cause even without our cafe operations.
Meowraming salamat.
