"We provide the adoptable cats, you bring the love," said owner Renee Reed.

Guests can enjoy many forms of cat therapy with the friendliest felines in town. El Gato's special events include Caturday Morning Cartoons, Kitty Crafts, Meowvie Night and the very popular Yoga with Cats.

"The focus isn't so much on hitting the poses," said yoga instructor Pia Das. "You just have to have a playful spirit, an open mind and of course a love for cats."

Since it opened in April 2017, El Gato Coffeehouse and the Houston Humane Society have adopted out more the 25 cats to forever homes.
