About Us
Mad Dogs and Crazy Cats is the first Cat Café to reside in Alliance, Ohio.
MDCC is a unique Pet Boutique and Café which features a
bamboo zen room, jungle themed playroom, and enclosed outdoor patio where visitors can play and lounge with our resident cats.
At Mad Dogs and Crazy Cats, we believe in providing a
unique and rewarding experience for our visitors
while supporting and reinvesting into our community.
Our Mission
Our mission is to educate the public about unique breeds of cats
while providing a safe and fun environment for people of all ages
to come play, experience, and learn.
Mad Dogs and Crazy Cats is Stark County's first cat café,
located in Historic Downtown Alliance’s
growing tourist destination on Main Street.
The first cat cafés originated in Asia with the intent
to allow guests of the café to watch or interact
with their ‘house cats’ while enjoying their coffee or pastry.
In the United States, cat cafés use their platform to
educate the public about growing feral cat populations
and how they can support local spay and neuter programs.
Community-Oriented
Mad Dogs and Crazy Cats is focused on
educating our visitors about unique breeds of cats.
Mad Dogs and Crazy Cats oCatio is also graced by
the colorful art installation "Cats of the World" by David Mcdowell our resident artist who has transformed our space into an immersive enriching visual experience.
Weekly Wellness Events
As a non-profit organization, Mad Dogs and Crazy Cats
will provide self-serve drinks and snacks,
available for donations.
We will also host a variety of community wellness programs,
including Meditation with Cats, Yoga with Cats,
cat-themed Oracle or Tarot Card Readings.
Revitalizing Downtown Alliance
Crazy Cat Cafe is part of the Heritage Ohio program
revitalizing Historic Downtown Alliance where Sherry Groom
and her team of creative entrepreneurs and artists
are using art as a tool to save the historic buildings
on Main Street from decay and neglect
while stimulating our local economy
and revitalizing our beautiful neighborhood.
