SHELTER UPDATE
We’re happy to report that the shelter itself is basically fine with no floods. There was some minor damage from falling tree limbs and some repairs to our electric system after an outage. But to say the shelter is FULL is an understatement. We took in 46 cats, mostly very young kittens. We only had 3 adoptions at PetCo and 5 through fosters in the last month and we now have 150 either in the nursery or in fosters that we need to find homes for. It is definitely going to be a challenge!
VIRTUAL ADOPTION MONTH
September is the month we celebrate our Virtual Adoption cats! These are usually older cats that have little hope of finding a Forever Home. Some are feral or have a disability such as one eye or are deaf. 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 Yumika) by going to our website at https://purrproject.com/adopt/

RANCH HIGHLIGHT: CASA DE MACHO
Macho’s Before
Thanks to a 2017 donation from Carol & Charlie McCullough, we were able to totally renovate this old structure, adding tiled walls, a ceiling fan and steps up to a little loft! Today it is primarily home to kitties that are 5-6 months old and ready to go to PetCo and hopefully find a Forever Home.
Carol and Charlie also welcomed Sombro into their home and also virtually adopted 15 more!! Charlie is no longer with us but Carol continues to be a board member of PURR PROJECT USA,
& After!
INC and a valuable supporter through their charitable gift fund. If you would like to make a contribution to help us continue our work, go to the donate page on our website for information: https://purrproject.com/donate/
