Updates From PuRR Project No Kill Feline Shelter PuRR Project | |
go to original October 31, 2022 |
We held our breath waiting for the passing of Cat 4 Hurricane Roslyn. There was some flooding at the shelter but no trees down from the high winds. We lost power in the night during the worst of the storm, but thankfully all humans and cats are OKAY!
The worst damage was just north of us along the Nayarit coast where it came ashore. Sayulita was hit hard. Wind and high surf caused some damage in Puerto Vallarta and around the Bay but overall, we were lucky this time!
The Nursery casitas are still full with almost 60 kittens. Adoptions were very slow in October. The two hurricanes resulted in the PetCo Adoption Center closing early those weekends.
Virtual Adoptions
Virtually Adopting one of our cats is a great way to show your support! These are usually older cats that have little hope of finding a Forever Home. Many have disabilities or may be just too feral to be adopted. YOU can “Virtually Adopt” one of these felines for yourself or as a gift to a feline-loving friend for only $120 a year and help us continue to give these adult cats a safe home and medical care for life.
You can learn how to virtually adopt and also meet all the candidates, like MAMA ROSA, by going to our website at PurrProject.com/Adopt or write us at adopt@purrproject.com.
Upcoming Events
The Olas Altas Saturday Market starts November 5th. We plan to be back at our spot outside the front door of Daiquiri Dick’s starting the same date. We’ll be there from 10:00 to 1:00 with logo items like PuRR T-shirts and caps, the 2023 PuRR Calendar and other goodies….plus maybe a kitten or two!
SAVE THE DATE: Sunday, March 5 at El Rio BBQ is the planned date for the Pussy-CAT Concert in memory of Marilyn Khan to benefit the shelter. There will be fabulous entertainment, a raffle, food and a cocktail or two! We’ll have all the details next month so stay tuned. If you are going to be in town, mark the date on your PuRR Calendar!
The PuRR 2023 Calendar
It’s hot off the press and ready to order. The 2023 calendar is a work of art featuring the cats and kittens of PuRR! If you are currently in the USA or Canada and would like to place an order, please contact Bama at info@purrproject.com. It’s a great gift for a cat-loving friend, or for yourself.
The donation this year is $25 each and will cover postage. You can pay by check to DE or by PayPal. Information for both is on our website.
Our shelter is supported solely by your donations! Check out our DONATE page to see ways you can show your support.
