Springfield business unique as a kitten’s whiskers

SPRINGFIELD – I would like to introduce you to Bean. 

Bean was dropped off at the Emergency Veterinary Hospital on Pioneer Parkway with an eye injury by a good Samaritan, then treated and transferred to a local cat rescue. 

After being socialized with other foster cats through The Cat Rescue and Adoption Network, Bean now awaits someone to fall in love with him and adopt him. 

In the meantime, he lounges in front of the television and hangs out with fellow felines at the Eugene Springfield Cat Lounge at 537 W. Centennial Blvd. in Springfield. 

“We sometimes put The Cat Channel on here,” said lounge owner Michelle Wyatt, adding that cats sometimes bat at the squirrels and birds they see on the television, or “they like to pile on top of each other in a puddle pile.”

Wyatt said it is the only cat-themed boutique in Oregon with cat residents. It offers a unique opportunity to hang out in a room full of up to 12 rescue cats that are also up for adoption. 

She said that launching this business was 20 years in the making.
