Cat cafés and rescue groups offer a slower, more personal way to meet adoptable cats than traditional shelters. In Toledo, cat cafés and rescues often work together. They help cats find homes, give shelter to those that are harder to place, and offer a space for the community to gather. Here are some of the top cat cafés and rescues that make the Toledo area a vibrant community for cat lovers.
RubyCats Cat Café
618 Adams St. | 419-820-7829
The café also honors the history of its building through the Joyce Fae Jacobs Cat Care Fund, named after a longtime neighborhood caretaker who spent decades looking after stray cats before RubyCats opened. Jacobs, the former owner of the Camel Bar, was a neighborhood legend for her compassion for cats. The fund helps cover veterinary care and enrichment for the cats, preserving the building’s legacy while supporting the café’s mission today.
