The Purr Project, Inc. is a non-profit organization whose mission is twofold First, our mission is to give second chances to cats that have been injured, abused, andor neglected by rehabilitating and matching these cats with safe homes. Our primary focus is to those that would otherwise be euthanized because they have –sometimes-serious –medical issues. Since The Purr Project calls New Haven Central Hospital for Veterinary Medicine home, we have the unique advantage in our objective. Our cats get 24-hour attention from a professional, experienced staff. In most cases, our duty calls us to nurse cats back to health from starvation, exposure to the elements, and general neglect. After a cat has found its way to us, we first assess their health. This process includes screening for diseases including FIV and Feline Leukemia. Cats are then observed in isolation for 10 days. Next, we bring all cats current on vaccines, and spay or neuter them if of age. Third, each cat is assessed for temperament and personality. Every cat in our program gets this high level of attention so that we can match you with the animal that is right for you. Our work in the anti-abuse community is new. However, working with local, state, and national municipalities as well as the Humane Society of the United States and the ASPCA, The Purr Project reaches out to schools and community groups to end animal abuse. This abuse in many cases will eventually manifest itself as greater crimes against the general public.
