Bayonne cat lovers, mark your calendar. The Bayonne Public Library hosts a “Cats and Coffee” adoption event on Saturday, Nov. 21, 2026, where Furvana Cat Rescue will bring kittens, adult cats and senior cats looking for homes, and local mobile coffee bar Sunspire Cafe will pour cat-themed drinks in the lobby. It is one of the sweetest ways to spend a Saturday in Bayonne, Hudson County, NJ this month.

Meet the cats from Furvana Cat Rescue
The adoptable cats come from Furvana Cat Rescue, a New Jersey nonprofit based in Bayonne. Furvana focuses on humane Trap-Neuter-Return for the city’s community cats and on finding loving homes for cats that are ready for indoor life, including cats from homes that can no longer care for them and friendly street cats.
According to the library, the rescue will have kittens, adults and senior cats at the event. Whether you want a playful baby, a calm companion or a new best friend, the afternoon is a chance to spend time with the cats, learn about their personalities and hear how local rescue work happens.
Thinking about adopting?
Furvana matches cats with adopters through an adoption application on its website, so meeting a cat on Nov. 21 is a great first step rather than a same-day checkout. The rescue says fostering is its greatest need, and it also places working cats in barns, garages and warehouses where they help with rodents. If your home is not ready for a forever cat, fostering or a donation still helps.
Coffee from Sunspire Cafe
While the cats arrive at noon, the coffee starts earlier. Sunspire Cafe is a mobile espresso and matcha bar serving Bayonne and NYC, and it will pop up in the library lobby from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. with cat-themed drinks for sale. Plan to grab a latte and then head to the Gallery once the cats are out.
Make a day of it in Bayonne
Pet lovers have another reason to visit the same library earlier that week: the Hudson County Animal League’s Santa Paws Tree party lights up the library lobby on Tuesday, Nov. 17. You can also meet more local groups doing good in our list of Bayonne nonprofits and community groups, or find parks and places to eat nearby in our guide to things to do in Bayonne.
