Sandra Cagan
Founder/CEO
Sandra Cagan is the founder of Orlando Cat Cafe - the first Cat Cafe to open in Florida and the first to offer a franchise opportunity. The Orlando Cat Cafe was founded in 2016 solely as a philanthropic project but it quickly grew into the most successful Cat Cafe in the country both in terms of number of guests and number of cat and kitten adoptions. During the pandemic Sandra returned to school and obtained her Masters in Public Administration and a Certificate in Non Profit Management from Villanova University. Sandra splits her time between Chicago, Illinois and Orlando, Florida and shares her life with her husband of 30 years, Jeff, and her Maine Coon cat Ori.
