Cat vs Cafe (70/30)

Feel the Buzz:  Review of Catfeine Cat Cafe

Just down the road from Nashville, is Murfreesboro. Best known for it’s Civil war history and local university, Middle Tennessee State, a new feature will surely be added to this list- Catfeine Cat Cafe.

A beautifully appointed space that belong in the pages of an interior design magazine, Catfeine is the gem of a cat cafe brought to life by Taura and Curtis Boyd. Originally from Alabama, these cat-loving professional musicians eventually made the move to Nashville, rescuing many fur babies along the way.

After watching an episode of Shark Tank, the dream to open a cat cafe was hatched- and after much hard work and planning, finally came to fruition on April 5, 2019. In addition to Taura and Curtis, they have staffed the cafe with such kind and compassionate cat lovers that the whole place feels like the warm and welcoming home of a favorite friend- if said friend’s home was also filled with 15 cuddly cats!

Team Catfeine are definitely tops, but once you enter the cat lounge, it’s impossible not to fall in love with their friendly felines. In partnership with rescue Puurrfect Paws, Catfeine has some of the sweetest kitties around, a testament to their care and socialization they receive at the cafe. My favorites included Nala, a gorgeous girl with ticked fur reminiscent of an Abyssinian, Cheddar, a playful ginger kitten, and his sister, Clover, a darling tortoiseshell.

Clover was feeling a bit shy around the other cats, but made herself right at home in the warm lap of any nearby human companion, snuggling her way into the hearts of all the patrons that day, mine included.

Over the course of the our kitty-love filled hour, we also engaged in some great conversation with Taura, her staff and the other patrons in attendance. It became clear that Taura is the heart and soul of Catfeine, and that the cafe’s kind, compassionate and thoughtful atmosphere mirrors her personality.

By the time we departed, cup of coffee in hand, I was practically buzzing with cheerfulness.

When considering the beautiful surroundings, outstanding hospitality and great coffee, a visit to Catfeine is surely a can’t-miss highlight of any trip to (or through) Murfreesboro. Prioritize a visit ASAP!
