'Tis the Season...of Sponsorship that is! When you look at all the healthy adoptable cats on our website, please remember that there are many others in our care who are not ready to be posted on the Available pages yet. As they get close to being available for adoption, they will move to the Available pages. These cats are waiting in the wings for sponsors to help with costs for a myriad of medical issues. We are grateful to all animal lovers who donate money toward their recovery. Will you help us care for these babies with your donation?

Imagine how poorly cats feel with issues like upper respiratory infections, ear or eye infections, skin problems, rotting teeth, diarrhea, or internal parasites. And that’s the common stuff we see every day.

The expense can skyrocket if our approved veterinarians detect an illness or recommend surgery. That is an additional cost that we didn’t budget for. And afterward the cats need weeks or months of rehabilitation. Beyond necessary medical treatment, they eat up a storm, and it takes cash to provide them with quality food, and lots and lots of kitty litter. All this costs money.

These cats cost us thousands of dollars each year. While we are happy to care for them, they create a huge financial burden upon our very limited budget. Your donation will help us to continue our mission to improve their quality of life and, in some instances, actually save a life.

We invite you to read their individual stories, and discover how beautiful they are on the inside, and how truly deserving they are. You can specify if you want to sponsor a specific cat or a particular group. Will you please make a donation today on behalf of these wonderful cats?

Join the Purebreds Plus Flight Crew!


Help us help the cats fly out the door and into their new forever homes. No Pressure. No Dues. No need to foster. Just do what you can when you can do it. There are many tasks that you can do that don't require fostering and don't require a longterm commitment. We're even open to having YOU tell us what we need to have done better and assigning yourself to that task. We have an immediate need for the following:

Post Flyers. Once or twice per month one of our volunteers creates a flyer with pictures of some of our cats needing homes. We also have a short bio for each cat and contact information. Just let us know you want to receive it and we'll send it via email. All you have to do is print it out and post it in your local area shops, coffee houses, or post it on your website. You can post it in one place or one hundred.

Transportation. We are called upon to take cats from all across the
Western Region, from Canada to Central CA, and from Arizona, Nevada, and Eastern Washington. Keep an eye on our message board and if you see a transport request that you can fill, please contact us. Or put your name on our list and we'll send you a notice each time we need transport.

--> 1 cat needs to come from Bend, OR to Sacramento, CA
--> 2 cats desperately need to get from Klamath Falls, OR to Fairfield, CA.
MISSION COMPLETED. Thank you Seattle Persian Rescue for taking these three cats

Transportation is still needed. Shelter cat(s) are in danger.
1 cat needs to come from Vancouver, WA to Vacaville, CA

If you can do all or part of a trip, please contact us at info@purebredsplus.org

Photographers. All of our cats deserve to have lovely pictures of
themselves on our site. Not all of our foster moms have the right cameras, or know how to get those great photographs that help cats fly out the door. Please consider taking pictures of some of our foster cats and getting them posted to our website.

Video Crews. Some of our shy cats don't show well when adopters come.
We'd love to be able to have a video taken of them when they are feeling comfortable. We will then post that to the website so people can see our cats in action.

Miscellaneous. If you want to become more involved there are all sorts of
administrative things that can be done. We are an all-volunteer organization and the greater number of our volunteers are fostering so the paperwork sometimes gets pushed to the side.

Fundraisers. Want to put on a garage sale in your local area? We'd
LOVE to hear from you! Do you know of grants that are available to us but don't know how to write them? We'd love to hear from you. Have you managed a fundraising team before and want to organize our entire fundraising program? Oh please! CALL US!

We Need More Foster Homes. With the economy the way it is today, purebred and other exceptional cats are suddenly flooding into Rescue and turning up in high kill shelters. We wish we could take them all, but we don't have the space. If you can provide a safe and loving foster home, please call us today. There are also many other purebred cats waiting in shelters and desperately in need of a foster home. Cats in foster care thrive in a home environment! When cats receive one-on-one time with you they learn how to socialize with other adults, children and pets in the home. And you'll have a network of people who can answer questions, volunteers who have similar experiences or knowledge about caring for cats in their home and placing them with their new family—their “Forever Family”. We'd love to talk with you about this rewarding opportunity.

Volunteer People who offer their time are our greatest assets. If you can't adopt a cat right now, there are many other ways to help a cat in Rescue. If you can transport cats from the shelter to their new foster home, help groom, socialize, and clean at our foster centers, write grants or help with fundraising, please join our team today.
