The concept is from the same successful team behind Crumbs & Whiskers, the groundbreaking cat cafe with locations in D.C. and Los Angeles, California. "I think it's going to be an even more adorable experience, if that's possible," says founder and CEO Kanchan Singh. "You can have a stressful day at work and say 'I need to go cuddle kittens.' It's almost like kitten therapy." The lounge is in response to overwhelming public demand from visitors to the nearby C&W Cat Cafe.

Visitors can choose between 15, 30 and 70-minute packages (Cost: $15, $20 and $35, respectively.) Those enjoying the 30 and 70-minute sessions can also pre-order coffee, tea and other beverages, along with snacks such as edible cookie dough, cookies and more, provided by The Dough Jar. Sign-ups for appointments are available at the Crumbs & Whiskers website.

The pop-up Kitten Lounge is located through June in D.C.'s historic Georgetown neighborhood. The time period is critical because it's considered kitten season. The term sounds nice, but it's actually a time of year when an influx of stray kittens overloads animal shelters nationwide. Many cannot handle the costs and responsibilities of caring for so many kittens. Every year, about 860,000 cats are euthanized, according to the ASPCA. The kittens are provided in partnership with Homeward Trails Animal Rescue, a local nonprofit. While all of the kittens are adoptable (and adorable), visitors are able to enjoy the experience without the obligation of adoption. Read here.

The Lounge is at 3109 M St NW, and is open six days a week, from 11am-7:30 pm.
