ADOPTION UPDATE
The PuRR shelter took in 11 new kittens and one mother in January. We had 6 adoptions at the new PetCo location plus 2 at Daiquiri Dick’s and one through FaceBook. But we still have plenty of adorable kittens in the Nursery who need homes! You can find us at PetCo Friday through Sunday from 9:00 a.m. to closing, and at Daiquiri Dick’s on Saturday mornings.
Petra was the lucky kitty with us at Daiquiri Dick’s when Debbie Morgan and Jeff Heisholt stopped by to say Hello and fell in love. A pet-in-cabin reservation was quickly made with West Jet and four days later she was on her way with them to Toronto, with a new name, “Rio”, and a heated bed waiting for her!! She will join their two other rescue kitties.
UPCOMING EVENTS
It’s hard to believe, but we only have four Kitty BINGO dates left this season!! (February 13 & 27 and March 13 & 27) So come on down to Nacho Daddy’s on Basilio Badillo in Old Town and join us for a fun hour and help raise money for the PuRR felines. It’s only $100 pesos to play and cards go on sale at 3:30 with games beginning at 4:00.
Our Adult BINGO last month was a sell-out and Amy Armstrong had them rolling in the aisles. The 50/50 Raffle brought in $10,400 pesos as the winner donated her half back to the shelter!!!!! Meow!!
There are also only FOUR dates left to book your Shelter Tour! (February 6 & 20 and March 6 & 20) It’s easy to go on-line to our website at https://purrproject.com/shelter-visits/ and make a reservation. Or e-mail us at visit@purrproject.com for more information. You’ll never forget a morning with all the PuRR cats who will welcome you with open paws…..waiting for a treat!
FEATURED FELINES: RHETT & SAVANNAH
This brother and sister were only three weeks old when they were left at the shelter gate early one morning in October. Since Savannah was born with only one eye and both needed special nutrition, they quickly went into a foster home where they could receive individual attention. They are now back in the PuRR nursery and are ready for their Forever Homes……hopefully together as they are so bonded! If you are interested adopting this pair or any of our sweet kittens, contact Linda at adopt@purrproject.com.
