PURRR Adoption + Sanctuary’s “PURRRS & POPS” Open House

June 14 @ 4:00 pm - 7:00 pm
Free
  • « BEAD FEST
  • Soulful Sundays »

To commemorate National Adopt a Cat Month and Father’s Day, PURRR Adoption + Sanctuary (PURRR) – a nonprofit organization with a mission to transform cats’ lives one PURRR at a time, through rescue, adoption, and spay + neuter initiatives – will host “PURRRS & POPS” on Sunday, June 14, from 4 to 7 p.m. The free event is open to the public.

The community is invited to an open house to visit adoptable cats and learn about fostering, adoption and volunteering at PURRR, and vote for South Florida Top Cat Dad. Guests will enjoy delicious food and drinks in purr-fect company while discovering ways to support PURRR’s mission to help more cats find their happy ever after.

This Father’s Day, PURRR is searching for South Florida’s Top Cat Dad who raises whiskers and expectations. Cat dads, foster dads, rescue dads and dedicated volunteers are all welcome to enter for the chance to win. To enter, participants can either direct message @purrr.family on Instagram or email info@PURRR.org their favorite photos. Participants will get a bonus entry if they upload a photo and tag @purrr.family in a post. Bonus points for funny photos, rescue stories and cats with very strong opinions.

The deadline for photo submissions is Wednesday, June 10, and the community will vote for the winner leading up to Father’s Day weekend, including at the “PURRRS & POPS” event. Each vote is a $1 donation that helps a cat in need. The top five finalists will be featured across PURRR’s social media pages. The winner will be announced on Friday, June 19.

As June marks National Adopt a Cat Month and National Hug Your Cat Month, it’s the perfect time to find a forever feline friend. While most adoption services are self-service, PURRR believes that every cat has someone and finding the right feline companion is a special journey. Through its “Find Your One” process, PURRR’s team helps future cat moms and dads find their soul cat and guides them every step of the way.

With over 150 adoptable cats, the PURRR team knows every cat – their personality, history, quirks and what kind of home they need to become themselves fully. Whether future cat parents are seeking a playful and energetic kitten, a calm and cuddly adult cat, or a wise and gentle senior, PURRR’s diverse selection of feline friends ensures there’s a perfect match for every home. Soul cat profiles built around personality are available on each feline friend in PURRR’s care.

The “Find Your One” experience starts with filling out an application to help PURRR’s team understand the adoptee’s preferences, lifestyle, and what they’re looking for in a cat companion. Within 48 hours, a PURRR team member will schedule a meet and greet for the chance to see firsthand the personalities and quirks of feline residents. After connecting with a potential furry family member, PURRR schedules a 15-minute in-home, educational consultation to ensure a smooth integration into the home. PURRR prioritizes the new feline family member’s well-being and conducts a comprehensive final medical examination and bloodwork before taking the lifelong feline companion home. The PURRR team will check in after a week to ensure a smooth transition and address any questions. Beyond adoption day, PURRR provides support, resources, and guidance throughout the journey as a pet owner.
