A new pet store and pet adoption spot has opened up shop in the neighborhood. The new addition to Hedrick Acres, called El Jefe Cat Lounge, is located at 3025 N. Campbell Ave., Suite 141.

El Jefe Cat Lounge offers patrons a spot to read a book, study for a class or just to hang out with family and friends while also playing and cuddling with adoptable cats. The friendly felines come from the Hermitage No-Kill Cat Shelter and Sanctuary. The lounge also hosts meditation, yoga and movie nights. 

With a five-star rating out of four reviews on Yelp so far, the new pet store has already made a good impression.

Melissa C., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on Dec. 4, wrote, "El Jefe Cat Lounge has lots of cute, lovable cats ready for your attention! Kudos to the owners for creating a space that is enjoyable for the cats, relaxing for humans and conducive for matching people to cats."

Yelper Mike M. added, “What a fantastic idea to be able to see the cats in a natural environment. You can see which personality you like better to play with or adopt. If you are looking. If you are looking to adopt, I very much enjoy this place. It's much better than just seeing a bunch of cats in cages.”
