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.
One hot morning in September, Jose found this teeny kitty in a plastic bag, tied to the shelter gate. Dra. Eva gave her intravenous fluids as she was very dehydrated, and she was soon showing a spunky & playful side. She has been gaining strength in the clinic and LOVES attention so should make a great adoption candidate some day soon! We will be back at Daiquiri Dick’s on Saturday mornings starting November 14th and as always, at Plaza Marina on Fridays from 11 am to 2 pm.
Shelter Tours
We have set the dates for the official shelter tours for this year and we hope YOU can join us on this little Mexican adventure. In addition to meeting some of the 150+ residents out at the ranch, you will see some of the countryside of rural Nayarit and the charming colonial village of San Juan del Valle. All this for only $300 pesos per person (or $20 by PayPal) and we throw in the bottled water and cat treats plus round-trip transportation from one of three convenient meeting points. The first tour is scheduled for November 25, then December 9 & 23, and every Wednesday in January and February. For detailed information and to make your reservation, click HERE.
