Cat cafe coming to downtown Greenville

Yes, you read that right. Greenville is getting a cat café, and it will be downtown. The cat café is the longtime dream of Jennifer Bronzel. Bronzel, a native of Germany, and a lifelong cat lover, has spent the better part of two years considering, developing and planning her café concept, and finally, she says, now that she has secured a space, the project is moving forward.

The Organic Cat Café is slated to open in May in the 3,600-square-foot former JB Lacher Jewelers location, at 123 College St.

“I’m really happy we are finally here,” Bronzel says. “This year is the year of the cat café in Greenville.”
