According to CNN, Purina ONE partnered with North Shore Animal League, a large, no-kill animal rescue and adoption organization based in Long Island, New York, in order to bring in the 16 special cats in the U.S. to stay at the café.
Shelter director for North Shore Animal League America Christina Travalja said, "So far I think we've had about four cats adopted, but on Saturday we're having an event here where we'll have our mobile unit that will have additional cats available for adoption, and we're always encouraging people to come over to the shelter in Long Island where we have over a hundred adoptable cats."
