The Shabby Tabby Cat Cafe

My husband and I want to thank the whole team at Shabby Tabby. They made our whole adoption process so simple and comfortable. The staff are just amazing people. Ryan, the owner, is worth pointing out. She has been extremely approachable pre and post adoption. Things got a little shaky after the adoption of our cat, but Ryan checked in on us consistently to make sure we and our cat were ok.You guys are incredible for what you do for these cats.Thank you again Shabby Tabby team !

Staff is super friendly and like to keep the place tidy. Cats are super cute and the coffee was delicious!

This place is wonderful. Its such a great alternative to cats in tiny cages at a crowded shelter. All of the cats here get to live in a home like setting and lounge out on fun cat furniture. If you are coming to visit, a drink (coffee, tea, hot chocolate, lemonade) is included with your visit. There are plenty of cat toys to get the kitties interested in playing. If you cant have a cat at home, you can definitely get your kitty fix here. If you are looking to bring home a new family member, they have plenty to choose from. There is also a cute shop in the front where you can buy cat themed merchandise.

Went for the first time with my Mom. Relaxed atmosphere and so many cute kitties for adoption.

Went here for the first time tonight with my boyfriend, didn’t mind spending the $15/person knowing it goes towards helping these kitties with all the supplies they need. This place rescues all their cats from unfortunate situations and have them available for adoption rather than being sent to a shelter/kill shelter. Some cats were very stand offish due to the circumstances that they came from. Totally expected. But some were also so friendly and just wanted to play and cuddle up. These are cats that were neglected and don’t understand how to accept human affection, YET. so you should expect that when you visit. 10/10 recommend. What these people do is amazing and I wish there were more places like this to help animals find there FURever homes

What a wonderful place full of sweet kitties, good iced tea, and friendly, caring staff. These kitties are so well cared for and looking for fur-ever homes. You can easily book time online to spend an hour playing, petting, and snuggling the cats. And when youre done, they have a cute shop in front. I highly recommend going!

A unique experience for a cat-lover. My friends and I attended cat-yoga class, where we stretched out our limbs and excercised while getting to enjoy a fun and relaxing cat filled experience. We highly recommend.

Before visiting I wasnt sure if $15 was going to be worth it. The answer is yes! We made a reservation, which was easy to do and filled out the waivers on-line. When we entered, we were offered a beverage, and then let into the cat area. Its a bit overwhelming at first. Lots of people, lots of cats, and some cat smell (not overwhelming, but my friend commented on it). I immediately sat on the bench next to the tortie. Before I realized it, she crawled into my lap and didnt leave for 30 minutes.I was visiting LI and away from my fur babies, the Cat Cafe was the boost I needed. I will visit again in the future.Update October 2022I came back to LI to say goodbye to a loved one.The Shabby Tabby had been a soothing balm for my sisters and me. Little secret-if you go at 11am on weekdays (avoid holidays and school days off), you will have the place almost entirely to yourself. The other day, the kitties were getting breakfast when we got there.

Staff is so kind, as expected from fellow cat people!! We loved hanging with the kitties, old and young. Drinks are included in their hourly price and they have “gumball” machines full of treats you can get to feed the cats.

I loved playing with the cats even though I have bad allergies. Petting them and looking at the cute little babies roam around cures all of your problems. I personally dont know anyone who goes for the cafe part. Super friendly cats, this place actually made me adopt a cute kitty. Welcome home ollie

Went in for an hour and ended up staying for three! Absolutely amazing place. You can tell the team truly cares for the cats. Will definitely be back to adopt one day 🧡

We love ShabbyTabby. We have been here a few times and this past February adopted our sweet girl Pepper from here. All the staff was incredibly kind, and the cats were super friendly. Considering what some of these cats have been through - it’s truly amazing to see their resilience when given the opportunity for another chance. My family and I are very grateful to the cafe for giving us the chance to fall in love with another kitty after losing our 13 year old boy to Cancer last year. It took us a year to be ready for another furry friend - but when we were ready - we were determined to pick the “best” one from ShabbyTabby. It turned out that our pretty girl ended up picking us! My 6 year old fell in love with her and that was that! A few days later she was making herself Queen of the house. After a few weeks of her getting used to her new home she really became one of the family. We love our little Pepper 🌶 and cannot thank you guys enough for all you do!

Incredible cafe! The ladies here are friendly and truly care about every cat that comes through their door. Very clean and excellent drinks. Always the best time when my kids and I visit!

This review is looong overdue, and very well deserved! My family has been coming to The Shabby Tabby for years. It’s one of our favorite places! The Shabby Tabby is both a great spot to visit if you simply love cats and want to hang out with them, or if you are looking to adopt a cat of your very own. We had been frequent visitors, before we were ever looking to adopt. And then we adopted a cat from The Shabby Tabby a few years ago, who is the sweetest boy on earth.Aspects we ADORE about The Shabby Tabby: 1) Their welcoming and warm approach. My family always feels invited when we visit. They welcome children with open arms (which I appreciate greatly) and understand that children bring a different level of energy than adults do (just like kittens, haha.)2) Their price point is very fair. And sometimes the owner/manager will let you stay a little longer if they aren’t crowded.3) The cat-themed gift shop at the entrance is to die for! Who doesn’t love kitty ears?4) All of the cats! They’re everywhere and it’s just wonderful. The layout in the cafe makes it easy to view/interact with many cats at the same time.Pro Tip: If you’re looking for a quieter, less crowded interaction, where you can have all of the cats to yourself, visit on a weekday morning, when most people are at work/school. Thank me later! ;)We LOVE The Shabby Tabby and you will too! Just go!

The aesthetic of the cafe is so cute and welcoming! This is the best place to go for kitty therapy and the staff is friendly and won’t hesitate to answer any questions you have. It’s clean and they care for the cats so well 10/10

I cant say enough how great this place was! Ryan, the owner, has a big heart and it really showed in every inch of the space.The cats that are there right now (9/29/18) are super friendly and love gentle petting. Ryan also brought along her 5 week old foster kittens which were adorable!! Please be careful with kittens that small as they are delicate and sanitize before and after!There are two Keurig coffee machines to self serve your own cup while youre there and prepackaged goodies to munch on for purchase. Tea available as well. Also, there is a bunch of Shabby Tabby and other merchandise for sale like collars, accessories, mugs, and cat wine!I will be back monthly for sure 😻

Beautiful kitties, my partner and I had an amazing time today! The staff was excellent. It was impressive how clean they kept was considering a lot of the cats were messy eaters! Amazing 🤍

I will be here often. Cozy atmosphere and wonderful staff. Great feline residents and cause. They are helping kittens and cats find homes! Stop by and say hi! Im sure every little bit helps. Cant wait for my next visit.

Ryan (the owner) truly has a heart of gold. Each kitty is so loved and well taken care of here and it is clear that she puts everything she has into this business. The atmosphere is clean, comfortable, and the cats seem so at ease, despite coming from heartbreaking situations. There are so many fun events to go to that directly benefit the kitties. Yoga is a favorite for myself, my sister, and mom. Everyone who works here treats customers with so much kindness (even customers who are being rude/careless).There is nothing bad to say about this business. I wish I could give 10 stars as they truly deserve it. Thank you for all that you do.

The Shabby Tabby is such a wonderful place! The staff are so friendly and kind and care so much for every cat! We love the instagram posts that they make about the cats. They tell stories of how they found their rescues and what their personalities are like. I love spending time with the cats. I paid for 1 hour and ended up extending it to 2 hours and loving every minute petting so many cats and having one named Meatball sit on my lap for about an hour. We found a cat that I loved and we filled out an adoption form and we were able to adopt him after some time passed. We are so happy with our new kitty! He is the best boy and his personality is exactly as they described it! He’s made our lives so much better! These 3 pics are only a fraction of what we’ve taken so far! He is sooo adorable!!

My son and I visited the Shabby Tabby numerous times since they opened. We have gone to multiple paint nights to paint a cat, and to paint a pumpkin night.The cats are well taken care of, the staff is so nice and the merchandise is on point. My son has a t shirt, I have a travel coffee mug and I recently purchased a pride hoodie that came with a bumper sticker that I proudly put on my car. I only got to wear my hoodie a few times since it was spring, but each time someone commented I love the Shabby Tabby!It truly is an amazing place that changes the lives of these kitties, and anyone that says otherwise is obviously full of cat poop.

Went in with my two friends as walk-ins, were greeted with a nice employee and it was such a cute place. my friend and i are mildly allergic to cats so we took a benadryl before going, and since the place was clean it was of no trouble to us! no strong scents, was tidy and the cats used a separate room to do their business, so nothing was overwhelming, contrary to shelters and what youd expect smell-wise! the cats were super cute and a couple just hopped onto my lap as soon as i sat down. lovely way to spend an hour, 15$ was somewhat reasonable considering the unlimited drinks. a few of the cats tussled with each other a couple times but other than that they were angels. it was pure serotonin tbh, definitely recommend at least once!

This was an amazing service!! :) the silly cats were very friendly and cute

This is such a special and important place. It is and forever will remain close to my heart. I donated often when the pandemic first started, and continue to buy things off of their amazon wishlist to send to the cats. The cats are rescued from kill shelters, and are given a chance too live outside of cages in what felt like, a very loving environment thanks to the owner, volunteers and guests who play with the cats.My brother, knowing that I LOVED cats but could not own any in my previous apartment, told me about the cafe. It sounded like a great place for cat lovers like me to go and hang out with cats...really all I wanted to do.My fiancé and I finally bought our own house a few months ago. As soon as we closed, I started looking for potential kitties to fill our new home with. I saw two sisters up for adoption who were newly added to the website. I called, made an hour appointment, and let them know that I was interested in the sisters.As soon as I arrived, I was treated by the wonderful staff who were excited about me potentially adopting the sisters. My fiancé and I picked up the girls and held each of them...WE WERE IN LOVE!! I made arrangements with the owner and the golden paw society to pick them up on that Friday. Everyone who worked/volunteered there expressed how happy they were that we were taking them, and how much they adored getting to know them. We showed up on Friday with a cat carrier, they took our picture with the girls, and left to start our new journey as a family together!I made a vet appointment to make sure they were ok very soon after. They both had a clean bill of health! They are also very loving, love pets and dont mind being picked up...I attribute this to the socialized environment of the Shabby Tabby.I am a member of their Facebook group Shabby Tabby Graduates, and post pictures of the girls often. The owner and volunteers always comment about how big they are getting...its so nice! They also do bingo, raffles, host parties, and are selling masks that they hand made themselves! They really go above and beyond.In conclusion, the Shabby Tabby is a special and important place. The people there TRULY care deeply for the cats. I continue to recommend them to anyone who is looking to adopt a cat! (Or 2 or 3)!

A fabulous cafe for cat lovers. So much fun. Ryan and her staff are doing such good work to rescue and foster cats.

Very cute and clean place. Really don’t understand the bad reviews regarding the cats not being friendly or sleeping. Cats sleep it’s normal they are there in order to be potentially adopted not for your entertainment. Anyone that knows about cats knows they take time to warm up to anyone so even though some will be friendly others might not be and that’s okay. They charge $15 per person which included a drink, for the people who complain about that as well need to understand that they have overhead and need to provide food, medical care amongst so many other things. Either way me and my boyfriend had a great time despite him not liking cats he enjoyed himself and we will definitely be back 💕

I love visiting the Shabby Tabby. For the number of cats the place is spotless. You can tell the owner really cares about the cats and space. The best part and what separates this from some of the fancier cat cafes Ive seen is that these are all rescue cats and are all up for adoption. Worth a stop in for cat lovers for sure. They even sell Claritin if you have allergies! Theyre ready for anything!

The staff is really friendly here, I didnt feel awkward at all. I ADORE all the kitties that are there. I personally fell in with Honey though, she reminded me of my late childhood cat

What a wonderful place to visit whether youre looking to adopt or just love hanging with the kitties. Ryan and Melanie are angels who literally create a safe, warm and comforting home to cats who would otherwise wither away in a shelter, forgotten and unloved. They have a special affinity for senior cats and work tirelessly to find forever homes so they can spend their last chapter with a loving family. No cat is left uncared for here, even the challenging cases wind up learning to love and be loved, thanks to the staffs dedication, time and patience. Your admission price includes a lovely hot or cold beverage and the hour you spend interacting with the felines will fly by because you will have such a great experience. We travel from Queens every few months to visit and never leave without stopping at the fun displays of cat-themed items available for purchase. You can even sponsor a cat with a modest donation to help defray cost of their care. Exciting recent news is that the owners will be launching their very own cat rescue in 2024 so this is a HUGE bonus for homeless cats in the community. Wish there were more of these caring, wonderful places in every town!

My children and I love going there and playing with the cats. So much so we adopted 3. Meatball, Parmesan and Iris.Thanks for our cat family.

Such a unique and special place where your visit fee goes directly to saving sweet little lives. How many places can say that? Ryan and her team have done an amazing job saving over a thousand cats and she takes in ones with medical issues and that are seniors. There’s a great area in the front with cat themed merchandise also. If you’re a cat lover, this place is for you!

Amazing and friendly experience. Adorable cats, cozy space and welcoming staff. We had a great time!

My son loves to come here weve been here multiple times. I feel its the best value cat cafe you can find because you pay for an hour and you get unlimited drinks. They also have a bunch of various souvenir options. They have so many cats and are always getting new ones and adopting out current cats that have lived in the cafe. The cat area is very spacious and the cats seem happy!

I Came in and immediately I’m greeted with a tabby cat and room I can see through a window which I can see has a lot of cats. I payed the entrance fee and got a free drink with it. When I entered it smelt very clean and not like what some people referred to. After I got assorted they brought my drink and I started to look at all the cute cats! some were skittish some loved attention and some were sleeping. A very sweet experience and I will definitely be coming back.

So, It was very nice to see all the cats at the workers were friendly, only bad part was I couldn’t pet the cats because I got scared they’d scratch after two separate cats scratched me 😂😅 Nice place though. Super clean and nice place, Lots of cats. Don’t be like me and actually pet them, even if one scratches. ❤️❤️

Loved the experience. Very unique idea

They have an el gato security(Joey) but I didn’t get to see the el gato manager sadly, The workers were very nice and helpful I will come next time with my girlfriend

A great place for any cat lover. Coffee was good too. Would definitely recommend this place if you are looking to adopt. The cats are well taken care of and incredibly social.

The staff is very nice and the cats are well cared for. The only annoying thing is having to compete with other patrons for kitty attention.

Love cats but these felines need a lot of TLC. You walk in and hit with the stench of cat urine and spraying. It was choking.Then there was an older cat that was vomiting, not a hairball, VOMITING. Definitely needed medical attention.The idea of the cat Cafe is noble but if you have no intentions to properly take care of the cats you shouldnt be in business.

Great experience here adopting our kitty Pickles. The owner and staff are wonderful. Remember.. adopt don’t shop.

The Shabby Tabby, holds a special place in my heart. After adopting 3 cats from the cafe, I still come back to love the other cats still looking for their forever homes. Each and everyone one of these cats at the cafe are special and unique. Their personalities leave unforgettable toe bean prints on your heart. Even if you’re not able to adopt, or not looking to adopt at all, come and show these angels all the love, they more than anyone, deserve it.

Love this place! My boyfriend and I went and it was very nice. The cats were so friendly as well as the staff

Not...really a cafe. the kitties were fine but i dont get why this is called a cat cafe. you pay $15 per person an hour to sit in a room with cats and get a homemade quality drink. its so silent in there, there are moments where everyone just looks at each other and wonder what else there is to do. no food, which makes me wonder why they call it a cafe. it wasnt that bad and the cats were adorable, but i wouldnt spend another $15 for that awkward experience. stay healthy, cats!

Amazing Place! The employees here are the friendliest I’ve seen. I loved playing with the new kittens here, too! The price is will as it is $15 a person with unlimited drinks like hot chocolate and iced tea! The cats are really friendly but some fight. I loved Flopsy, who was a cat who had a balancing disorder. I’m happy that she was adopted and the employees here are all trying to find these cats new homes. I also understand how most of the cats here were abandoned or abused by their owners, like Cupid. Kate is my favorite cat here and she is being adopted. I love playing with the cats and also feeding them catnip and treats. It’s probably the most favorite place I have ever visited!

Absolutely ridiculous parking. I had to hit the wall just to back out of the spot without hitting a car next to me. Parking lot needs to be fixed. The coffee sucks for $16.99. Cute cats, but no warnings on which ones are bound to attack.

Fabulous place with owners who truly love cats. Just adopted a kitty. Picking him up in a few days.

Ive been here multiple times and I always leave in such a good mood. Everyone there is so friendly and knowledgeable about each cat and their individual personalities. There is so much for them to do, so many toys and beds and the whole place is clean and welcoming. Even if youre not in the market to adopt a new kitty, I highly recommend stopping in and hanging out with them for a little while. Its nice to know that all the fur babies are being well taken care of at all times. Will definitely be returning!

I wouldnt recommend bringing kids here. Some of the cats here are very aggressive!If your cats don’t want to be touched by children or anyone, you shouldn’t have it in an open cafe where you as the owner invited the stranger attention with the cafe.If your cats can’t be touched, be responsible and put a NO PETTING SIGN. Don’t deny responsibility when incidents happened.

This establishment is owned and managed by a selfless person who cares not only for the cats/kittens but her staff as well. The mutual respect and team work is evident and heartwarming. She goes above and beyond everyday. If you want to adopt a pet, please visit the Shabby Tabby Cat Cafe. This heartfelt experience is amazing and would I highly recommend it!

A great place to relax, hangout and maybe find your next furry best friend. Ive visited many times and always have a pleasant experience. The staff really cares for these cats and you can tell they have so much love in what they do. Everyone is super friendly and knowledgeable about the animals even with so many different cats coming in and out as they find homes. These people are so wonderful that I dont have the right words to express how really awesome they are to the customers and cats. It never smells like there are 30+ cats there and they clean regularly, sweeping up excess cat hair. Also the Pink Lemonade is delicious! If youre shying away because you dont want to adopt, thats okay, visiting helps the cats to socialize and the low price of admission helps keep the cafe running. They dont pressure you to adopt! And even better, if you do want to adopt then they will guide you. They know the personalities and have helped match many cats to forever homes. I applied to adopt and the cat sat in front of me as I filled out the forms. He went from living on the street to happily purring on our couch thanks to The Shabby Tabby! I wouldnt have met him if it wasnt for them posting a cute picture on the cafes Instagram. So if you want to adopt or just hang out and play with some cats and sometimes kittens, Visit The Shabby Tabby!

Great environment for those looking for a serotonin boost in an adorable boutique/ cafe space. If you are looking to adopt the staff is helpful and knowledgeable about all the cats in their care. When we visited we got lucky and adopted an adorable cat and appreciated the staff and rescue doing their due diligence in checking references.

Second time here! Love it here! So great to the cats!

The Shabby Tabby is a wonderful place to visit kittens and cats who have been rescued and need homes. A drink is included in the price. The staff is always so friendly, and they go above and beyond to take care, socialize, and love on all the cats. There are also items to buy that are reasonably priced and unique.

My fiance and I come here weekly. Very clean and comfy. The cats are very well taken care of and loved. You can tell the staff truly cares for them. Very friendly staff. Always a nice visitUpdate: We adopted our Wanda from here in February 2022. She is my best little buddy! She is super healthy and the sweetest. Super grateful to Shabby for our girl

It is such a cute little spot just to hang back and spend time with some cats. Cats can be adopted, and they all have personalities, so I would be very cautious with little ones when entering.It is $15/hr, and you get a drink with it. Coffee was my first to go to, but it was not up to standard. However, they are not a coffee shop, so it is understandable.They do have hand sanitizers everywhere and bandaids for when an accident does happen. There is a cute little bathroom as well.I would go back just to see the cute kitties, but definitely not for the coffee.

The cafe and the staff are so lovely and the entire vibe is so amazing. The cats are so adorable and sweet and you can tell they are all on paths to being in great homes. The drinks are a really nice touch. It’s the best place to relax and look at cute kitties. I adopted a 10 year old cat from here after my 3rd visit 🥰

This place is awesome! Me and my daughter had so much fun. I had a few coffees and the staff made them for me with no problems or complaints (and my daughters hot chocolates lol!) all of the drinks are included! We had a great time and the staff was amazing and so knowledgeable. The place was clean and the cats are well cared for! Will be back! :)

I have been here 2 times and was so impressed both times. The first time was just to visit with the cats and the second time was to participate in a paint night. Both times were so much fun. There are a few separate sitting areas so you never feel confined or crammed into a small space with others. You can always find a beautiful cat to have some one on one time or just grab a toy and see the multiple happy cats thrilled to play with you.The place is super clean and filled with all ages of cats. The volunteers are lovely and know each cat and their stories and personalities. It is a great place to find your new best friend or to just visit.All cats are rescue cats and so thankful for a new chance at life. I highly recommend the Shabby Tabby cafe in sayville.

Love this place so much. Finally took my boyfriend the other day and we both had such a nice time. They made us 2 iced coffee’s during our stay and we weren’t rushed at all as we said hello to all the kitties. So many sweet older kitties were being overlooked for these 3 very cute kittens so we hovered on the older ones a bit longer. The owner Ryan is so sweet, along with the whole staff. We’re already looking forward to going back. The place is also very clean and the staff is very attentive to both the guests and the cats.

Weve adopted 5 cats from Shabby Tabby over the past few years. The owner, staff, and cafe are incredible. The love and nurturing that goes into running a place like this is significant. Its important for people to realize that while the majority of cats are so, so friendly, some are a little shy. Thats to be expected. Our cats needed time to warm up too! Theyre mushy, lovey little furbabies who just soak up love and attention. Thank you to Shabby Tabby for providing such a wonderful space that promotes adoption, bonding, and the opportunity for these kitties to find their forever homes.

This is such a great place for kitties looking for their forever homes as well as for humans to interact with them. The place is clean, and cozy giving a feel of home to the cats as well as the visitors. We went for pumpkin painting night and the level of care and love these cats receive is so great! The staff is super helpful, welcoming and friendly. I definitely recommend this place especially if you are looking to adopt. These cats are super friendly and truly enjoy human interaction. Its a great place for cat lovers even if youre not looking to adopt. My kids and I had a great time.

We had a great time here and love their cause. I already have a kitty I adopted years ago through the SPCA, but I can see how coming to a place like this and spending an hour would be a great way to bond with a new friend before committing to adoption. The cats are clearly well taken care of and the room is well-designed for their needs as well as the comfort of the patrons. Will definitely make the trip back next time Im on the island.

We went here a little before COVID hit on Super Bowl Sunday and I haven’t had the chance to write my review. I can say it was a wonderful visit. All staff were very professional and friendly. They interacted with us and we played some games which was great. The cleanliness of the cafe is amazing. All cats had such awesome personalities. They all look healthy and relaxed, especially love their bow ties ! We can’t wait to come back because it’s really a little zen environment and I think we can all benefit from it. Just want to give another shout out to the staff! Thank you so much for all you do!

Can’t wait to see the owners awesome response to my review. After reading other customers reviews it seems as though they can’t take any sort of criticism. With that being said I went there with my son because he loves cats. The place had so many people inside a small room, it’s $15 per person for an hour and we essentially paid $30 +tax to see sleeping cats and the ones that were awake didn’t want you touching them or any sort of interaction. We left after 20 minutes of pretty much just walking in circles for nothing. There definitely should be some sort of limit on the amount of people in the room. Probably also shouldn’t have cats that don’t like human interaction. I have no issue with paying money because I understand businesses have bills to pay, but this was a Complete waste of money!

Great place to get in contact with cats and relax petting them.

Ive been coming to the cat cafe since the year they opened. It is always such an amazing experience every time I go there, to see all these cats being taken care of by selfless people, and then get adopted into loving homes where they can live happily, its beautiful. Keep up the good work! These cats are so lucky to have yall take care of them before their new family finds them.

My daughter (9yrs old) and I love this place. Actually, it’s beyond love... we have never encountered such kind, loving, empathic people. My daughter suffers from anxiety (one of her many quirks) and the staff have been nothing but incredible for us during the pandemic. They have truly gone above and beyond for us. We made weekly visits and ended up adopting the love of our lives. I wanted a cat for my daughter for emotional support and to be a member of our family. There hasn’t been a moment where we didn’t feel welcomed. We continue to visit because all cats need love and cuddles. We continue to remain in contact with them. They truly are a wonderful bunch of people. I can’t thank them enough. Our family of two grew to three and we can’t thank them enough. (Not to mention we love playing Bingo!)Love Sara, Charlotte & Huck ♥️

Had a wonderful time. The room was spacious and nicely decorated. I was amazed with the amount of activities they have available to you besides the cats, such as video games, board games, and coloring books. Drink options are limited, but as someone who doesnt drink coffee I was very happy to have hot chocolate. The place is kept very clean (though only slightly smells like a litter box, not overwhelming). Would definitely come again! They also have cute accessories and merch in the gift shop.

This place is amazing the shabby tabby cat cafe i spent over an hour just petting the cats and observing them talking with the staff i Hope to volunteer there someday it is just a great place to be whether you are a cat person Or not its great for mental Health in my opinion seeing the cats the senior ones the kittens just Love this place and i cant wait to go back

Most friendliest cafe I’ve ever been to, the staff care so deeply for their cats/kittens. Each cat has their own signature personality that would befit anyone that’s willing to adopt them. I’ve adopted my first cat from shabby and I’ve never been more happy with mango/hazel. The staff make sure you’re comfortable upon entering and their merchandise is amazing. I would seriously consider coming to this cafe for just coffee and engaging with cats.

Everything I could’ve hoped for and more! They gave a loyalty punch card so you get free visits. Free drink with your reservation. They make sure the cats are respected and have lots of different spaces to hide or interact. Very family friendly. I can’t say enough wonderful things and my crazy cat lady butt will be back!

I loved it, it was such a great experience and peaceful i would definitely come back again!🐈‍⬛🐈

A wonderful place for cats to get even more exposure for adoption. The girls do an amazing job caring for them and its fun just to stop by and hang with the kitties even if you arent able to adopt!

We love Shabby Tabby. We first came across them last year when my son was interested in getting a cat but had no true exposure. We took him to see how he would do and that where we met the cat who would join our family a week later. My son loves coming here and hanging out with all the cats, plus this place does amazing work rescuing cats that would otherwise be killed. It’s a great place and great concept to help save innocent animals.

This place is soooo amazing! Cats are the BEST and if you have, love or wanna adopt cats, you should go here. The kitties love the attention and make you feel so relaxed and calm. The second you get in there its like all your problems are left at the door. They give you unlimited drinks through the whole hour and its suuuper affordable!! A must go! Enjoy!!

Cats are we treated, the place is clean but I wish they answered phone calls so that I didn’t waste my time. Last time we arrived the cat we were interested in to adopt was in the process of being adopted. It took us 40 mins to get there to hear this. Please start answering phone calls

I had a wonderful experience my first time at Shabby Tabby. I went there to see the new babies that were up for adoption. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and very responsive. They answered any questions I had with no hesitation. The atmosphere was inviting,calm and clean. I didnt feel rushed or pushed to make a decision.I wound up falling in love and filled out adoption papers right there. The process was seamless. We welcomed home our new baby Prue formerly known as Bella and we are so happy. We will be back for their wonderful activities they sponsor!

I have been to the Shabby Tabby twice BUT my family has visited more and adopted an AMAZING, stealthy, kind, smart, and gentle 9 year old tuxedo cat named Zach from the cafe this Spring!I love the Shabby Tabby’s Mission through their connection with The Golden Paw Society. And I love their values and support of social issues as well!! They (the cats and humans) always made me feel welcome and it is such a nice place to make you feel better/ have a nice time... but also to give cats some love and maybe even adopt one (or more!).

Great name for this place because the customer service is shabby. Me and my boyfriend traveled from Babylon Village to this cafe. We were so excited to see the Cats. As soon as we walked in no one greeted us, we were ignored & the other staff treated us with such rudeness. I’m standing around looking at the merchandise and still no one asks me if we need help. I was there to also buy gifts for two people. So I ask the front desk lady about how things work at the cafe and she seemed annoyed at everything I asked, We felt awkward & like the rest of the staff was stand off-ish. The customers in front of us were being helped by 3 staff members and they immediately were offered a time slot with cats. Not a good vibe here at all. Would give 0 stars.I’m not looking to receive anything for free, I had a bad experience here. I do not wish to come back nor email.

More fun than expected! The staff was very friendly and you can see they enjoyed talking to people there. It was cool to see that the cats were from shelters. If you looking for a cat or just looking to hang out it’s worth it. You get to interact with the cat instead of being put in a small closed room or see them in cages. You learn about their personalities. Would definitely go again!

As a repeat visitor, it’s been great to see the cats who are coming out of awful situations get the care they need and deserve, while waiting for safe homes.I see some reviews of people being mad that the cats need medicine or look like they have problems. If you talk to the staff, you’ll often get the back story, sometimes very sad stories, about where they’ve been found & rescued from. I recommend going back for follow up visits to see the cats improvement.Visiting Shabby Tabby also proved to be a great way for us to adopt a cat. Seeing how she was around other cats, out in the open, allowed us to pick the cat that would fit in at our home.

Today was my first time visiting. I like the concept and the staff was very nice and they obviously really care about the cats. My main complaint is there is no separation between food/drinks and the cats living space. It just seemed unsanitary to me. I did see that they are moving locations and will have the separation then. I am interested to see how the new space turns out. My son did get scratched by one of the cats and we were warned to be cautious of him; however, in my opinion I think that only very friendly cats should be exposed to people and maybe there could be a separate area for the more unpredictable ones.

This place is wonderful, i met a sweet cat here last winter when i attended a shelter building event and sent photos of him to a family member and she adopted him the next day! The employees are great and knowledgeable and honestly the negative reviews that mention the other cat place in selden look like they’re purposefully negative to draw business to the other place. I stand behind the shabby tabby and their mission. The cats are great and affectionate and the ones that aren’t wear little red collars alerting you that they may get over stimulated. As for the kitten pairing complaints the shabby tabby posts photos of majority of their adoptable cats online and they do specify which ones they’d like to keep paired. The staff here are doing something great and you can tell they care.

The amount of love put into this cat cafe is beyond belief. All of the cats are so social, I forgot I went there with my mom and friend. I spent the whole time playing with cats and kittens! It amazing to see them help cats find their forever homes in such a sociable environment. You can really see the cats personality shine! There is a wide arrange of ages which makes it perfect for anyone. I ended up talking my landlord into taking one home after I spent an hour there! You will not be disappointed.These are just the few pictures I took on my phone of the littlest kittens.

Me and my three year old LOVE going to the Shabby Tabby! The set up is perfect, the cats are adorable, and the staff is incredible! They always make sure I know which cats might not be so excited to have my Three year old loving on them and direct us to the best match for us! True cat (and coffee!) Lovers will absolutely love this Cafe! Despite what the other review say about it being expensive I completely disagree and think it is worth every penny! We love the Shabby Tabby!

The cat cafe was beautiful and clean. the cats are all so happy, they do a wonderful job and with adoption available we are now happy parents ! the work they do here is inspiring & the staff is incredibly well informed, warm, friendly. i cannot rave enough, if you haven’t been i truly recommend you do !

I have been to The Shabby Tabby Cat Cafe many times (always love it) but tonight was my first time attending cat yoga! It was awesome! The instruction was very friendly and helpful, and the cats were, of course, adorable as usual. They come sit on your mat and walk through your legs as you do yoga! It was beginner class so it was a very relaxed and casual setting. I would definitely recommend!

If you didnt know that Long Island has a cat cafe, well, now you do. Such a cute and welcoming place. We went on a comedy night for the first time and it was such a great little event. Afterwards everyone got to walk around and play with and feed the cats. They have red collars on the ones that may be a bit aggressive so definitely watch out for that but most of them are extremely friendly. Enough about the employees though now lets talk about the cats. Kidding of course but yes both extremely friendly and it was such a wonderful experience. They also have snacks and coffee as well as lots of cute cat related products for purchase. Go check them out!!

Honestly HEAVEN ON EARTH! 😻🌎 They have plenty of kittens all ages & sizes. Some are friendlier than others, but that’s cats for you! Will definitely be back here again. I wish I could take them all home. The staff is super friendly and even give you treats to feed the kitties. Coffee, hot coco, tea included for $15 and 1 hour of time with the kitties!

The Shabby Tabby is an aesthetically beautiful place. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The cats are amazing, with unique personalities, sizes & colors. It’s a great place to relax and unwind. I saw a lady taking a power nap, after work, with a kitten on her lap. There’s free coffee, snacks, music and generally, Serenity. I strongly recommend this Cafe to anyone who loves cats, and needs some “me” time, to decompress.

This place is a dream, wait no its heaven on earth! Everyone is super nice and friendly. I recently adopted a cat from here and cant recommend them more. They truly care about these cats and their wellbeing and it shows. I love Shabby Tabby!

I had a great time. The staffs are really nice.Only complaint is about the cats nails. They are very long and sharp. Could have been more enjoyable without them.

Great place, friendly staff, fun cats! Highly recommend it!

Staff did not wear masks despite the ongoing pandemic and masks being made available at the door for patrons. A majority of the cats available do not appear to be healthy, and should not be adoptable/interacting with other cats.Many had weepy/crusty eyes, runny noses, messy/unhealthy coats, and at least one had a sore on its paw pad. I do not like to write negative reviews, particularly for small businesses, but I found the condition of these animals and the blatant disregard for visitor health and wellbeing to be unacceptable.The store is visually very nice, and the staff was friendly enough, but I encourage everyone to find a cat at a local shelter or different cat cafe, where the cats’ medical needs are tended to prior to adoption/interaction. I hope this business will improve, as it is a fun concept that I would love to see thrive, but as is, it is just not good.

I came here a week ago for one of the trivia nights & it was so relaxing and I’m planning on coming again someday. For someone with anxiety, I was actually really relaxed and happy the entire time I was in there. Being around a lot of cats helped that but the girls who work there were so nice too & i felt comfortable as soon as I walked in. I can’t wait to come back :) *also I’m in love with all of the cats*

0 stars would be appropriate for this “cat cafe” I drove from far away to see the beautiful cats and purchase a few gifts. Me and my girlfriend have never been here. We walk in and a few staff members were helping a women and her children book a time slot to pet the cats. As we’re standing there looking around no one even said “hi how are you, welcome to shabby tabby” it was awkward! Then we start asking questions about how things work at this Cafe. I’m not even kidding every single thing we asked felt like We were wrong for asking. Made me sad that we drove all the way here for nothing. One word answers from the front desk lady, no eye contact. Clearly didn’t want us there.

Love it!! So cute you walk in or can make a reservation pay a small fee ($10-$15) and you stay for an hour comes with coffee/tea/hot chocolate and they give you some treats to give the cats you can buy little snacks and they sell cat toys that you can buy for your cat at home. They have so many cats here different colors and breeds, kittens and adults and it’s so fun to play with them all they were all nice and friendly and playful except for one that didn’t want to be pet. Overall a awesome place love how they took all these cats from kill shelters and gave them a home here and you can even adopt these cats and share your home with them, beautiful inside the staff are so nice there’s so many toys and beds for the cats and I got to take a little piece home with me from my shabby tabby tee shirt and all the photos!

It was adorable! Very nice staff and a variety of different cats and kittens. The place was big enough to give the cats enough space as well as to accomodate groups of people. They have different board games to choose from as well, and the coffee/tea/hot chocolate came with everything.

A wonderful place run by the nicest people. We had a birthday party for my boyfriend there and they treated us right. We have nothing but NICE things to say about Shabby Tabby Cafe, the kitties that live there and the special people there that take care of the kitties. Whether having a private party or going in for a public event you will enjoy yourself. Make sure you leave space for James at the table 😸😻. Thanks, we had a great time.

I couldnt possibly say enough nice things about the Shabby Tabby! They take cats from a rescue shelter that may have more trouble getting adopted than any random kitten might (although they have kittens too, usually). The cats are showered with love and affection until they find their forever home! The owner and staff are friendly and passionate. Definitely stop in for a visit or one of their events (when events are a thing again)!

Ryan and her staff are amazing to say the least.I have witnessed countless adoptions via their Instagram page.Pet dozens of adorable, well taken care of happy cats.Took a yoga class with them.Weve even watched movies together!I have brought my friends to the cafe and they love it.We feel honored to be a part of their journey to find their furever home. ❤

The shabby tabby cat cafe is a great place! I go here all the time with my kids and they had the best time ever! Excellent coffee, so many beautiful and well cared for cats. Just an overall uplifting experience not to be missed.

Love this place. If you are looking to adopt a kitty, this is the place to go to.

The Shabby Tabby Cafe is the best place any cat could hope to land before finding a forever home. I’ve personally been to this location and have nothing but positive things to say about it. The owner, Ryan, is extremely hands on, as well as all the staff and volunteers. They all take pride in keeping the environment clean, fun, positive, and making it a great home for the cats. They are partnered with The Golden Paw Society who rescues cats from kill shelters. They give cats a second chance and new lease on life that they wouldn’t have had otherwise. Many people want tiny brand new kittens, but The Shabby Tabby knows every cats life is valuable and they take the senior cats too and cats who may have issues, which they are very honest about. Every cat is absolutely taken care of and if any medical issues arise they will get the cat the proper care it needs before letting it be around other cats and being adopted out. Getting to see the cats in an environment where they are free to roam around and be around other cats is actually a better way to see the cats personality than locked up in a cage in a shelter. Also, if you adopt an older cat you can already have a feel for that cats personality compared to a kitten. Some of these cats were abused or abandoned and were set to be euthanized prior to being rescued and they may not look as cute as a brand new kitten, but any true animal lover and someone who is experienced with cats would understand that and accept that. Just because a cat doesn’t look as pretty or handsome as you would like does not mean it does not deserve to be loved and won’t give you unconditional love. All these cats are very well kept and they get cute collars and bow ties and the royal treatment there. Not only is The Shabby Tabby a wonderful concept to adopt out cats that wouldn’t have had another chance otherwise, they are also a very fun and unique place that you can go to for game nights, paint nights, bingo, and build your own outdoor cat shelter for stray cats in the winter. The owner puts all her money, heart and soul into this place, and is absolutely selfless. This is a great place to come visit to just spend some time with the cats, do a fun activity, and perhaps find your next family pet. I know the next time I want to adopt a cat I am going straight to The Shabby Tabby. If you haven’t already visited there, please consider doing so, you won’t regret it. You can like and follow them on Facebook for the most adorable up to date photos and information on their cats and events, and also donate to their amazon wishlist. It takes a lot to run an amazing place like this and those cats and owner can use the help of donations so they can continue doing the good hearted work they are doing. I’ve only been there once and plan to go again soon, and I always enjoy seeing all the funny, well written Facebook updates. This place is a must go and see for your self one of a kind experience! Thank you to The Shabby Tabby and The Golden Paw Society for all of the amazing work you do, and keep up the good and hard work!

Wonderful place. The staff are all friendly and kind and OMG the cats!! Young and old, all beautiful. The space itself is very cozy and comfortable and they even have event nights like Yoga with Cats and Paint Night. I highly recommend it to any of the local cat lovers or anyone in town that loves cats that wants a cup of coffee and a bundle of loveable furry friends to relax with.

I went in one day looking to adopt a kitten and a beautiful 8 year old orange tabby stole my heart! Feta and I had an instant connection and I will be forever grateful to The Shabby Tabby Cat Cafe for introducing us! Besides the fact that I met my fur baby, the place itself is sooo cute and clean! And the staff is extremely friendly! 😻

A true gem and my favorite spot in Sayville hands down! Ryan and her team are incredibly welcoming, and have done amazing work finding homes for these shelter cats. Its affordable, and the space is well maintained, kitchy, and adorable. If anyone gives this place a bad review because the cats were hiding or in a bad mood, then they clearly dont understand cats. I have had so many lovely visits to shabby tabby that were full of love and cuddles, and I recommend it to anyone looking to adopt or just looking to have a pleasant afternoon hangout with some kittys :)

Great and interesting place. Hang out with Cats. Very camera and kid friendly. Snack are available but limited due to local laws. Worth a visit (or in my daughters case multiple visits) for animal lovers.This is also a rescue and doing amazing adoption work. Adoption fee is very reasonable.

My favorite place! I love the atmosphere and the kitties!! Unlimited drinks and an hour with the kitties for $15 is a great deal. I adopted my baby girl from here and she has made the best addition to my family! Couldn’t say a single bad thing about this place and love and support their mission!!

Love love love this spot! The cafe does such an incredible job at providing a loving environment for these kitties waiting to be adopted. It’s amazing that they are able to give them a free-roaming space outside of cages as they wait for their forever homes. Thank you for all you do! We’ll definitely be back to visit again 😻

Fantastic spot for a private party, especially great for kids who love cats. Staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the kiddos had a blast. Parties include cat shaped pizzas, and 15% off merchandise. Park in front if spots are available, otherwise down the side streets.

What a great deal, an hour of kitties, games & unlimited coffee or tea for only $15

Website offers reservations so we placed one during COVID. Most of the cats are adoptable! Staff was very friend, clearly cared about the cats. Drinks were great! Cats were sleepy at the time, but thats just the nature. They will let you know when they want to be left alone when u pet them. Ow.We thought this would be booking a time for us. Not at all. There are walk-ins taken during a flu-like pandemic. Barely shown on the website. The text is hidden over a dark picture. Only saw that when checking later. The inside of the Cafe is just a too small for a 20 person limit. Masks or not. A Family with kids will quickly block moving around safely.I WOULD PAY MORE to block out time and be in there with just 3 pairs of customers + staff.Paid $24 for 2 people for 1hour. Had to leave early due to not feeling safe with so many people and kids walking in at once.Would love to go back :/

I havent been there but my Christmas present came from there, with four legs and a tail. A lovely friendly female feline! My son enjoyed his experience adopting KC. definitely the place for adopting a cat for her forever home.

Ive had several experiences at the Shabby Tabby in both of their locations (Huntington now closed.) If you are looking to adopt, going to hang out there is the absolutely best way to do it. I fall in love every time. All the cats are rescued from local municipal shelters and include cats of all ages. They offer events and great merchandise and put love into everything they do.

If I could rate this place 0 stars I would but unfortunately thats not an option. We went in on a whim passing by and was charged $20 to see the cats for 30 minutes.... Thats insanely expensive when kitten kaboodle offers $5 for the entire day with much friendlier cats. I had a very bad vibe about this place but my fiance was adamant about seeing the cats so we did. Anyways, my fiance fell in love with a kitten and signed am application to adopt. Little background... My fiance has owned and taken care of kittens for years. She has been a great caretaker and 100% loving of cats and kittens. Our apartment is a huge beautiful 3 bedroom thats immaculately clean and more then spacious enough for multiple cats. Yet... She was denied.... Reason? Because the day we were there the kitten she wanted was spotted playing with another kitten for about ten minutes. So she was told shes being denied because they want someone to adopt both kittens since they played...for ten minutes. Is this not the most predatory tactic you ever heard to attempt to con a woman who fell in love with a kitten into adopting 2? Avoid this place like the plague...the cats arent friendly, the staff is interested in moving cats by volume and not how well theyll be loved for...and they charged insane amounts. $15 per person per hour. Check out kitten kaboodle in Selden, they are $5 per person for THE ENTIRE DAY!! We even left and came back hours later...and the cats are much more friendlier and the staff much more loving and compassionate..Edit: To Amanda D who posted nonsense about promoting another similiar place, you sound like youre promoting shabby tabby...whats your point? I am giving my personal experience and it was horrible. You werent denied because the kitten you wanted played with another... did you? Exactly.Also, we made our intent known about the kitten we wanted and were never told they wanted the kitten adopted in a pair....nor is it on the website.

I LOVE spending time at the “funky feline” Shabby Tabby !!! I love petting the cats , watching them play, and chatting with the staff , volunteers, and other patrons !!! It’s so peaceful and welcoming here! The owner Ryan, the staff and the volunteers really care about each and every kitten and cat here!! There have been over 400 cats and kittens adopted since the cafe opened!! It’s a wonderful place- ❤️❤️❤️

I love visiting the cafe. Friendly staff, purrrrfect cats in all shapes and sizes. It’s clear that the staff put their heart and soul into their non-profit work. I adopted two cats from the cafe and appreciate all the love they have brought into my life!

The baby cats are cute! The drinks are super yummy :) I love to look at the pictures of the cats and learn their names. I like to look at the cats snuggle with each other. -This is from my 8 year old daughter :))

We had a great time yesterday. You can order some drinks, but here is no food.There are many cats and kittens, youcan playand pet them. Great place)

Staff was nice but it was a bit pricey. I found a kitten I completely fell in love with. So went ahead and put in the adoption papers. Got denied because they want the 2 kittens to go together because they were caught cuddled up together. After that I will never return. That was the most ridiculous lie Ive ever heard in my life. They never even called my references, just flat out denied me. Absolutely horrible. Never ever returning to this place ever again. Ill go and support the cats at the kitten kadoodle coffee cafe in selden. $5 all day long! Whereas this place charges you by the hour. Ugh! Disgusted

First time visiting was for the Cat Yoga event. It was worth every dollar. Staff was so nice and welcoming , there were cats and kittens everywhere who were so friendly and clean looking. I drove over an hour to get out east but I would do it again!

I went with my fiancé and I’m new to cats no one was helpful in explaining anything to me all I was told is there is a book in the back go look at . I was hesitant as I never had a cat swat at me idk maybe this wasn’t the right place for someone that’s new to cats . I wish I was given a little more insight because they have cats in a room and some don’t get along . They should advertise this isn’t for people new to cats

Everyone was very nice and helpful. The price is good also the drinks are included. I recommend you to come here, the cats are adorable and are adoptable. :)

An absolutely amazing place! Clean, good atmosphere and the tea is delicious! So many sweet little cats will come right up to you. Absolutely amazing, we will be back!!

The only thing i will say is a down fall.... 1 hour each person for $15?! Children for the same price?!... thats ridiculous!Edit: I fixed the admission fee. I still dont agree with the per hour for children. I supervise my kids, even when i dont want to go in because of my allergies acting up that day (or that being the cover story to my kids because we got attached to one, just to find out its bonded to another), i still go on in because for 1, i didnt have a choice to pay for myself as well so i mind as well go in and try not to get attached to any kitties. 2. Occasionally my youngest, needs the supervision of not picking up the kitties while my oldest is distracted by them. Also children dont really do coffee or tea, may be including kid enjoyed drinks could help with that.As for other kitty cafes not allowing children, i havnt had that experience. All ive personally gone to were child friendly.I understand its for a good cause but i think people would be more inclined to stay longer if it were (as an example) $15 for the first hour and $5 for every additional hour.

We love The Shabby Tabby, had my daughters bday party there 2 years ago!!! Currently figuring out what cat to adopt, cuz my Bubby passed n my BudBud needs a friend!!! Great place to go to lift your spirits and have some fun, even if u r not plannin to adopt!!! The cats def love the company n love to play!!! Every time I go there, I think how I wish I owned my own cat cafe!!! The staff is awesome!!!

I love love love love love to visit The Shabby Tabby! The people are wonderful and my daughter, who is 2, always has a fantastic time. They are phenomenal and I would recommend that if youre sad, mad or even happy or glad and you just want to have a snuggle with some furry friends, this is a great place to go.

This review is for their Facebook page. Whoever runs the page and makes the comments on their posts. I was just giving my honest opinion about a photo, and the person responded all nastily when she could have been nice. She could have responded in a nice matter even if she disagreed with us. You weren’t nice so you got a bad review. You even called out my family name, said we have our priorities mixed up, and laughed at us. Then you deleted us from “liking” your page. Neither one of us said anything that made us deserve to be deleted or spoken to like that. Whoever you are you shouldn’t be working in an environment with those precious cats. You don’t deserve to. And if you’re the owner then I feel sorry for you and your lack of manners.

My girlfriend, our friend and I recently visited this charming cafe. As soon as you enter, you get the sense that the cats comfort is of upmost concern. But whats most impressive is the wonderful service they provide by offering adoption of their foster cats and kittens. A definite must try while in Sayville!

Nice and clean. Love the decor. It doesnt smell like cats!

What a fabulous place!!!!! The owner puts so much heart and soul into this wonderful cafe! And, help adopt cats and kittens! I fell in love with them all!!!! What an amazing thing to help these beautiful cats find a forever home and get them off the streets and into loving homes!!!! 😻😻😻

Cute little place with lots of sweet kitties. All cats seem very well cared for and loved. Very relaxing environment. Fun to play with kitties or just let them come to you and pet and cuddle.

Such a cute spot to spend an afternoon! The cafe part is really just a Keurig but that doesnt matter when there are so many cute cats! We actually adopted a kitten during our visit.

Love this place! First time visiting the new location. Love the upgrade. The cats are very well taken care of (and so cute!) the place is clean and inviting and the staff is friendly and always available if you have any questions.

I participated in some virtual events during COVID shut down, and have been following them since they opened. The place is lovely, but their genuine love and caring for their cats and cat rescue in general is truly heart warming. We need more good people like this in the world.

Had a great time here with the cats. Cats were social and loved being pet. Friendly staff and knew a bunch about each cat. Despite 2 out of 3 people in our group being allergic, we all had a fantastic time.

The world needs more places like this. I don’t think everyone understands how much work it is to take care of animals, and it does not go unappreciated. Thank you for all that you do for the cats who need a second chance. I will definitely be visiting again in the future, maybe as a regular, and hopefully adopting in the future! Clean, fun and cute, love this place.

I had a wonderful time here. The cats are cute and fun to hang around, plus unlimited drinks and a nice cozy setup. Also very friendly staff. Will definitely be coming back soon.

The Shabby Tabby is a wonderful place for people of all ages! I go several times a month just to spend time with a few beautiful fur babies who only want love, pets, and a furever home! Come show them some love!!

Great Place for children and those that love cats . we had a wonderful visit . the staff was beyond kind and gracious

We Visited this place and completely surprised. So much love and care for the cats. Very clean and you can see the cats love it there. Need more places like this.

One of my favorite cat cafes ever! You can expect a friendly, lovable cats here as well as a very relaxing and chill atmosphere to spend the afternoon. A must visit spot!

We went there on 08/05/2020 for the first time. My 3-year-old fell in love with Brody and Murph instantly. I asked a lady there whether they were up for adoption. She said yes and gave me the paperwork. She mentioned nothing about that others have had already put paperwork in. My daughter left the cafe heart broken because she couldn’t take the kitties home that night. Then I didn’t hear a word from either Golden Paws or you. Finally I decide to contact you thru messenger to check what was going on on. You responded that you were going to check with Golden Paw. Then my reference got a call from Golden Paw yesterday, and everything went fine. Now I go on Facebook and see the cats have been adopted by someone else! However, I haven’t heard a word from either you or Golden Paw! This is extremely unprofessional and unacceptable! How am I going to break the news to my daughter who has been asking about the cats for the past week?! She’s going to be devastated!!!

Absolutely amazing place. The cats are awesome, they are just looking for some TLC and a forever home. Very friendly staff and lots of great merch. Do the right thing and come down here and spend some money!

Safe place for everyone , such lovable cats.

Love ♥️♥️♥️I came here for paint night and it was so much fun. The cats were being their adorable selves and everyone was love.I’ve followed them on FB and the heartwarming stories are fantastic. Save a life, adopt.

The best cat cafe around!!!! The events are fun and the decor is adorable. Ryan and staff are amazing and have gotten so many kittys on death row loving forever homes.

Was not impressed with this place they arent a rescue themselves they have the cats brought in from a rescue so to me it was all about the money not the animals, they give you some small muffins and coffee for $15 to go in for an hour really!Will not go back or advise anyone to either. I always hope the animals get adopted so for that I would never wish bad and hope for the cats they get there forever home.

Be aware its 15 for adults and 10 for kids to sit with them for an hour. Free coffee, purchase snacks (cookies and chips). Cute idea, but I could potentially adopt/visit for free at a shelter. My kids were with me and excited, otherwise I would have left.

Went to the Shabby Tabby for the first time, and it was so cute! The cats were friendly, one of them even fell asleep on my friend’s lap LOL. The place was neat & comfy, I Loved the atmosphere & the cats!

We’ve been to the Shabby Tabby several times to play with the cats and once for a paint night. It’s always a wonderful experience. It’s amazing that they work so hard to get at risk cats adopted into loving homes!

I had such a great time! Pudding was the sweetest cat and stayed with me the whole time! The staff was super friendly and was always ready to answer your questions! This is my new favorite place. It’s truly amazing there. ❤️❤️❤️

Such a great place that help so many cats! Me an my husband had a great experience at the cafe.We adopted a wonderful cat .So much dedication an hard work to get so many cats adopted.

The staff is friendly, the cats are sweet and sociable, and the environment is very well kept and clean. Great way to chill for an afternoon! I cant wait to go back!

I LOVE this place ! The staff is super friendly and does a great job of keeping the place clean. All the cats are amazing ! So fun being able to play with them all. Keep up the good work!

Kitties are loved there, fed well and the hosts were nice and friendly unlike in Catpurchinno where cats are fed junk and fight for food which made my heart bleed. I will come back to visit shabby tabby again. Thx

Not as much as a cafe as you might expect, there are plenty of cats, and I love that they take all of the profits and use it to benefit the cats.

I enjoyed playing with the cats. I loved the coffee served while playing, feeding and cuddling them. The cats and place are clean . I will bring friends next time & Will recommend to others.

Amazing, caring staff. Love their values and the home that they give these cats in need. If you’re looking to adopt or just need a mood booster, make sure you stop in. Thanks for all you do.

Great experience, all the cats are so friendly! Have been coming here for a few years now and its always a good time.

I’ve only been to this cafe two times but their hospitality is great! the staff is so kind and answer any questions you have. the cats are adorable and you get your money’s worth!!

Super friendly staff. always willing to answer questions and tell you more about each and every cat.This place is a great place to destress and just play with some cats.

Took grandkids. They loved cats and had great experience, and staff were very friendly .I cant wait to go back

Adopted my first cat (a senior!) here and was given a lot of pointers that were very helpful. It helped me be better prepared and give this old kitty a chance!

Went here for Sunday morning cat yoga. Awesome experience. Place is unbelievablely clean considering 30+ cats live there. Cats are adorable. Wish I could take one home but I have dogs. 😔 definitely check this place out if you can.

This place is awesome! Clean, inviting staff, great events.. and whats even better?? They save hundreds of cats and find them their forever homes! Great place for children and adults.. with such a great cause. 10/10

Super clean and the staff was really friendly. The cats are so adorable and all need loving homes. ❤️

Loved every moment spent there, with my daughter Gabriella. They girl their were absolutely phenomenal with the Cats. We will be going back more often❤️

Great place to go to spend time with the cats that are up for adoption.Beverages (coffee, tea, etc) are available.

Really friendly, nice staff running this place! The place is very clean and its a very warm, relaxed environment. Full of sweet, friendly cats!

I love this place and cant wait to go back soon! The staff members are amazing, the place is clean and the cats are all amazingly unique ♡ Im so glad I have an amazing cat cafe so close to home :)

These Cats are very well taken care of and theyre so precious. I want every one of them. I will get one eventually

Great place but they definitely need to cut those cats nails.

This place is so cute! Everyone’s so nice and Service is amazing

I dont know. I felt uncomfortable with the staff. One of the ladies yelled at my son. Just a very odd place. Cats were cute. The guy in there is off. Something is off at this place but I dont know how to explain it.

Had a ton of fun! Went to the Mystery Murder night with my boyfriend who won the prize for solving it! The owner Ryan is very amiable and sweet!

Loving environment, Great mix of cats, knowledgeable staff, super clean and does not smell like cats!

Went here for my Moms birthday and I was impressed. We got to spend an hour hanging out with adoptable cats and honestly it was the best.

Great idea, but constantly smells of cat urine. I would recommend to use the pellet system. Zero scent and easier to clean

This is the most amazing place! It is always spotless! The little ones are genuinely loved until they find their forever homes. ❤️

Just went here on opening day in Huntington village!!! If you love cats you need to come here and hang out for an hour. So rewarding and relaxing!!!

This place is cat heaven. there are so many cats waiting to be adopted and after my first visit, i adopted my 6 year old sweet heart. i’ve never had a cat before, but ryan and melanie gave me tips and advice. although the shabby tabby has many cats, you would never know because it’s so beyond clean. the owner and staff obviously know what they’re doing. the cats are all well kept, and it seems like they really enjoy the free range of the cafe. their passion for rescuing and getting cats a furever home is apparent. it’s a nice space to relax, get some work done, and get some love from these cats. i highly recommend checking it out and i couldn’t be happier with my cat.

Tbh feel in love with a kitten she’s a gift from God. I filled out an application 2 weeks ago & no one had the consideration to call me back & let me know anything. Very unprofessional tbh

The experience is unique with interaction with several cats that are up for adoption. The cost is $15 per person (get a free coffee), a clean, kid friendly environment. There is info avail on all the cats that are up for adoption. If you are bringing children.....please supervise their interaction with the cats.

Very cute place. Had about 25 cats to watch and play with. Games available to play and beverages offered when you entered.

A wonderful place for a family to hang out with cuddly cute cats :) staff is awesome place is clean and we adopted our 2 cats from there- absolutely love this small business

I absolutely love this place it has the sweetest and most caring staff and the cats are so cute !!! their merch shop is to die for !!

The owners are some of the kindest Ive ever met, the food is good and the atmosphere fits perfectly with the cats

Such a nice place for cat lovers. If I lived in NY, I would definitely adopt a cat from here!!!

Wonderful, caring owners. Clean, happy and friendly cats, comfortable and ample seating. An excellent experience.

Shabby Tabby is a rare gem of a business with people who care about their cause, and feline friends to boot! Back in 2019, my boyfriend and I adopted our first cat from the Shabby Tabby location in Huntington, where our kitty fell asleep on us, and we had to force her to get off of us when we had to leave. Because of this wonderful place, we found our sweet Cirilla. My boyfriend and I also helped a bonded pair of cats be adopted by marrying them! (Yes, you read that right!) The Shabby Tabby is a fun and wonderful place, and I always look forward to visiting them and supporting them in any way I can.

Very pleasant and spacious atmosphere to really get to know the cats there! Staff are very polite and helpful!

One of the nicest people you will ever meet. Their dedication to helping animals is remarkable.

Cats are cute and fun to play with. Cafe part is meh. Service was ok

This is the best place on Long Island, its so clean and cute, the cats are nice, and the coffee is good.

Place is very professional and friendly. They arent going to judge you or yell at you if a cat happens to scratch or nibble, thats just how animals are (as long as you didnt provoke!) They even have bandaids and ointment available for the inevitable! The cats are all chosen for their ability to be comfortable or social, and they do wonderful work taking care of cats who may be missing eyes or otherwise. Drinks are actually pretty good, theres a ton of toys to use you do *not* have to pay for, and you can use the tables for games or work. You can buy treats if you would like to for the cats. There are young and old cats and the place is clearly friendly towards minorities and believes in equality and kindness. Keep it up!

So much fun, safe during the pandemic. Enjoyed coffee n cats, and how wonderful to support the cause
