Kick Butt Coffee Kick Butt Coffee is a multi-use cultural hub in Austin, Texas, operating as a coffee shop, bar, and live music venue. Some of the music is live.
(3019)

It supports local and emerging artists through accessible, high-frequency programming, serving as a vital community space. From "Best of Austin" write-up in the Austin American Statesman: "Plenty of surface parking on site. Decaf, teas, chai. [Lunch!] Some quiet spots in this big space. We’ve always liked owner Thomas Gohring and his ambitions to create a singular community around coffee, booze, e

ntertainment and, yes, martial arts. Gohring brings to the game a flair for showmanship, an element almost absent from any other coffee shop in town. He has expanded the size of his original location on Airport Boulevard while retracting his attempts to go global. A small stage, backed by his signature graphics, takes pride of place, but the long coffee bar attests to the original impulse to serve rigorously prepared espresso drinks along with food, beer and wine. As the ACC Highland project, as well as the Linc and other area redevelopments fire up, expect Kick Butt to thrive and retain its inimitable character. *The place opens and closes at odd times; we rounded up or down."

At this point, Nica should already be sleeping on somebody’s couch.

She should already have a favorite window, a favorite blanket, and a favorite human.

Instead, this sweet one-eyed girl is still waiting.

The thing that stands out most about Nica isn’t that she has one eye. It’s how much she loves people. She wants to be near you. She wants pets. She wants cuddles. She wants to curl up next to you after a long day and remind you that everything is going to be okay.

She’s playful, adorable, and full of personality, but underneath all of that she’s just a cat looking for someone to love.

Every time we visit her, we leave wondering the same thing:

How has nobody adopted this cat yet?

If you’ve been thinking about adding a little extra happiness to your life, go meet Nica at Tomlinson’s next to H-E-B on Burnet.

Let’s find this cuddly one-eyed sweetheart the home she deserves.

Another week and Nica is still here.

Still greeting people.Still rolling around asking for attention.Still carrying her little purple octopus toy around.Still waiting for someone to realize she’s the one.

Honestly, it’s getting difficult to understand how this cat hasn’t been adopted yet.

Nica is affectionate, social, playful, and completely fearless. She lost one eye early in life and adapted like it was nothing. She climbs, explores, cuddles, purrs nonstop, and somehow keeps getting overlooked while less cool cats are probably out there sleeping through their third nap of the day.

This cat has personality. The kind that makes your house feel more alive.

If you’ve been thinking about adopting a cat lately, go meet Nica at Tomlinson’s next to H-E-B on Burnet before somebody else finally figures out what they’re missing.

Let’s get this one-eyed legend a home.
