AWESOME FEELING OF GIVING



Yesterday, I blogged about Project PURR and the Auction they have going on right now to help raise money.  This is a wonderful non-profit was started in May of 2011 by Stacey Lavender and her daughter CeCe Comptonto save cats from being euthanized at Animal Shelters.  The organization provides care and adoption services for many homeless, abused and unwanted cats and kittens.  As a non-profit, PURR relies solely on volunteers and donations. "This is so important to me, as these animals need a voice and they cannot help themselves," said Lavender.


As most of my friends know, I paint just because I love too.  This is not something I make money on.  I have sold a few pieces in the past, but I mostly just paint for the fun (therapy) of it.  Brit was the one who got me to thinking about a way I could help.  She suggested donating a painting with proceeds going to PURR.  In May, she came over one evening and we painted this Funky Kitty.  




I posted it on the Project PURR facebook page and someone bought it.  What a great feeling knowing that my Funky Kitty painting was helping.  

Sunday night as I was cruising Facebook, I noticed that the Auction has started.  I send a message to Pam and she posted this painting Sunday Night.  


By this morning, it had sold at the BUY IT NOW price of $50.00.  How cool is that!!!  I had decided last night to add Blue Kitty to the auction also.  


Blue Kitty.

When I woke up this morning and saw that the 3 cats had sold, I decided to put Black Kitty up for "adoption" also.  

If you would like to bid on either of these paintings or donate to Project PURR, please visit http://www.projectpurr-al.org/, on FACEBOOK, call 251.533.4770 or 251.300.1935 or email projectpurr@aol.com

PROJECT PURR ANIMAL RESCUE

Scott's daughter Brit, has been involved with Project Purr Animal Rescue as a volunteer for over a year now.
WASHING THE FURR-BABIES


They recently celebrated the one-year anniversary.  This nonprofit organization has saved over 657 cats and kittens.  They work with local shelters to provide loving for-ever families for these cats & kittens.  They  have also been working very closely on helping the Vermilion Shelter in Louisiana which is allowed to gas animals until December 31, 2012.  

"Project PURR has not allowed a single cat or kitten to be gassed in the past 10 months from this shelter and will continue to do so as long as we are able: says Ce Ce Compton, Vice President.  




Brit received an award for being such a dedicated volunteer.  The Mobile Press-Register had an article yesterday and quoted Brit about her volunteer work.  (You can read it HERE.  Can you tell I am proud of the work this girl does?)


Brit has adopted, Landen, who is a very loving & entertaining kitten.  I look forward to seeing her photos on Facebook and Instagram of his latest adventures.  



"Landen, meet your brother Blue.  DO NOT eat him" 


Landen, DO NOT eat Blue

Now he knows he will get in trouble for going near Blue, so he thinks he is hiding.  
Look at those Blue Eyes.  He is so cute.



Project PURR has recently moved to a new building and will be having a Grand Opening Aug 4th.  They are having an Auction to help off-set some of the cost.  I have donated one of my paintings, 


for the auction.  Click HERE to make a bid or to see some of the other items in the auction.  Here are some of the furr babies you will be helping.
