Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Here's the latest news from Purr Project, a non-profit, no-kill feline shelter located just north of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, that provides homeless cats and kittens a recuperative stay with the ultimate goal of adopting them out to loving homes sterilized, vaccinated and disease free.

Upcoming Purr Project Events

Our first fundraiser of the coming season will be another GARAGE SALE in Marina Vallarta on Saturday/Sunday, November 7 & 8. PuRR volunteers have already collected lots of goodies but we can always use more! If you are ready to clean out your closets & bodegas, we'll be happy to accept your slightly used treasures. Contact Linda at info(at)purrproject.com, or Marilyn at exkhan(at)usfamily.net for details on how to donate.

KITTY BINGO will begin on Wednesday, November 18 and every other Wednesday through the season. We will once again be at the Margarita Grill in Old Town, where there is ample parking nearby and the food and drinks are PuRR-fect! And, of course, we will throw in a few ADULT BINGO sessions at The Palm with some great entertainment lined up! Stay tuned for more details and dates.

We are also working on dates for our annual Fashion Show, Luau, Sunset Cocktail Party and a really fun Mardi Gras Party in February. We hope you can join us for one or all of these fun events and help us raise money to fund the shelter for the next year!

Special Thanks to Purr Project Supporters

We want to give a big whole-hearted "Thank You" to some folks who opened their hearts and checkbooks the past couple of months to help us fund some emergency repairs and equipment purchases this summer: Marty & Sharon Weber, Charlie & Carol McCullough, Angela Dodge & John Ryan, Pam & Milt Tanora, Sharon Rose, Liz Vargo, Gary Philips, Ed & June Gamble, Pam & Frank Sullivan, Jeff Bates, Eric Grossman, Marilyn Khan and Brenda Gill.

Thanks to you all, we have re-wired the ranch house, replaced two refrigerators, one washing machine and a ceiling fan, plus bought a lot of necessary medical supplies for the cats. We were lucky to have no major damage from the huge rainstorm on September 4th that brought high winds and over 8 inches of rain to the Banderas Bay area!
