The Scratching Post- Lewisburg Cat Cafe

05/14/2026

What Would you call this… a cuddle puddle? 🐾

Cat circle? Tiny feline fan club?

Whatever you call it, it’s a pretty special way to spend some time at The Scratching Post.

We’re looking for volunteers to help create moments like this for our cats and guests. Whether you enjoy quieter, behind-the-scenes shifts helping keep the café clean and welcoming, or prefer interacting with visitors during open hours, there’s a role for you.

We offer flexible schedule options that allow you to choose your shifts based on your schedule.

Start by signing up for one of our upcoming intro trainings:
• Saturday, May 16 at 9 am
• Saturday, June 6 at 9 am

Wishing a very happy Mother's Day to all those who fit that description. ❤️

We don't know if this "mom" actually made this crew, because the female cats were tag-teaming the caretaking, but she certainly fits the bill! Have a wonderful day!

Meet our residents- Pax
This fella may be the physical embodiment of whatever lives in my brain that generates those dreams where you have an exam that you're completely unprepared for and have accidentally come to class in your underpants.

Pax is just a nervous guy- he always has a bit of a concerned look. He is also as loyal as they come. Once he knows he can trust you, just hearing your voice motivates him to come right on out to say hello. He knows his foster's voice as well as several of our regular volunteers, and will come when called better than a lot of dogs. He LOVES LOVES LOVES being pet. Can't get enough. He'll lovingly head butt anyone or anything within reach, including other cats.

Pax also likes to play as long as his playmates don't get too energetic about it- he gets along well with other cats, but would likely do best with furry friends who aren't too rambunctious. The humans probably need to be on the chill side too, or at least quiet, although he likes me and I am neither of those things.

He is very long and lanky, and has a lovely soft coat. Pax is neutered and vaccinated, and tested FeLV/FIV negative. We're open 12-5 Wednesday (**EXCEPT 5/13), Thursday, Friday and Sunday, and 10-5 Saturday. We look forward to seeing you!

🎬 What happens when you're missing your pet...and stumble into a cat café?
Apparently a movie.

"I Miss Mungus," a short film by Bucknell student director Miles Meloni, was partially filmed right here at The Scratching Post, with some of our cats making their on-screen debut.

The story follows roommates missing their pets back home who find themselves at the café in a slightly unexpected and very fun way.

The film will be shown alongside other student shorts at the Campus Theatre in Lewisburg this Sunday, May 3 at 4 pm.

If you want to make an afternoon of it, stop by and visit some of the furry film stars before the show. We will be open Sunday from noon to 5 pm as usual and would love to see you.

Hey! Hey! Hey, you!

Have you started reading We'll Prescribe You a Cat, our Book Club's May selection?

There's still plenty of time to read it before May 12 when we'll be gathering among the cats at the cafe to discuss this bestselling Japanese novel about the Kokoro Clinic for the Soul in Kyoto, which "prescribes" cats as a unique form of therapy for people struggling with emotional issues.

Want to join our group? Visit https://lewisburgscratchingpost.org/bookclub for info and reservations.

And we’re already looking ahead to our June read! You can sign up now and get ahead start on The Locked Door by Freida McFadden which will be discussed on June 9.

Tonie really hopes you can make it!
