Plano residents who love felines have a new destination to look forward to. Kitty Corner, a cat‑themed lounge, is slated to open its doors before the end of November and will host a grand opening celebration on December 11.
Family‑Friendly Features
Co‑founder McKenna Campsey describes the space as a haven for cat enthusiasts of all ages. In addition to a rotating selection of adoptable shelter cats, the lounge will offer themed merchandise, claw‑machine games, blind‑box collectibles and a photo booth where visitors can capture memories with their favorite whiskered companions.
Adoption Partnership
Kitty Corner’s mascots, Midnight and Toshi, are two shelter cats that inspired the concept. The business has partnered with a local rescue organization to bring a steady stream of adoptable cats to the lounge, giving patrons the chance to meet, interact with and potentially adopt a new family member.
Opening Schedule
The lounge will initially operate at limited capacity to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for both guests and cats. Campsey confirmed that the venue will welcome the public in November, with a full‑scale grand opening event planned for December 11. The celebration will feature special activities, promotions and giveaways designed to attract the community and raise awareness for animal rescue.
Community Impact
Beyond providing a unique entertainment option, Kitty Corner aims to support local animal welfare efforts. By collaborating with a rescue group, the lounge creates additional adoption opportunities and helps reduce shelter overcrowding. The venture also adds a new small‑business job market to Plano’s growing economy, aligning with the city’s focus on fostering family‑friendly enterprises.
What to Expect
Visitors can anticipate a clean, welcoming environment where they can enjoy light refreshments while playing games or browsing merchandise. The photo booth offers a fun way to commemorate a visit, and the claw machines provide a nostalgic arcade experience. Most importantly, the presence of adoptable cats gives families a chance to connect with animals in a relaxed setting, potentially leading to lifelong adoptions.
Kitty Corner’s opening reflects Plano’s continued commitment to innovative, community‑oriented businesses that cater to families and animal lovers alike. For updates on opening hours, event details and adoption information, interested residents should follow the lounge’s social media channels or contact the venue directly.
