Every day, we ask ourselves the same question: why is Peaches still here?

She’s affectionate. She’s gentle. She’s easygoing. She loves people. She’ll sit on your shoulder, curl up in your lap, and follow you around just to be near you. She even has an adorable obsession with drinking water straight from the sink.

At 10–12 years old, Peaches has already been through more than her fair share. After landing on the euthanasia list at ACCT, she was pulled by PURR and placed in a foster home. Unfortunately, the placement wasn’t the right fit, and she returned to the cafe. Since then, she’s been happily living in our back room, where she’s proven that she does just fine having her own space.

In fact, while putting together this spotlight, it was surprisingly difficult to get good videos of her because all she wanted to do was climb onto me, sit on my shoulder, and demand attention. That’s Peaches in a nutshell. If there’s a human nearby, she wants to be as close as possible.

The reason she’s still searching? Peaches doesn’t get along with other cats and would need to be the only cat in the home, or ideally the only pet. But for the right person, that’s a very small trade-off for a cat who gives so much love in return.

Peaches is ready to spend her golden years being someone’s best friend. We just need to find the person who’s been waiting for her.

You can meet Peaches at PURR Cat Cafe or apply through our website link below, also found in our Instagram bio.

VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT!
❤️❤️MONA ❤️❤️

Running an all-volunteer rescue organization can be incredibly challenging. Every time we receive a volunteer application, we hope they will show up, we hope they’ll take things seriously… that they’ll be committed, engaged, reliable, and care for the cats and the café the way we want them to. But the reality is, that level of dedication is actually pretty rare in any organization.

On average, an organization probably receives 50 volunteer applications before they find one that truly becomes an irreplaceable part of the team. And with my (admittedly 🤪) very high standards, that number is probably closer to 100.

But then… every once in a very great while… somebody like Mona comes along. And truly, Mona is probably one in a thousand ❤️😻❤️😻!!

Every single Monday and Friday, she shows up early — much earlier than she is even asked to — just to make sure everything is done by the time the cafe opens. By the time I get there to “help” her open it is already sparkling, fresh, organized, and beautiful. She never does anything halfway. She moves furniture, pulls everything out, cleans every inch thoroughly, scoops litter boxes all the way down to the bottom, and works SO hard the entire time she’s there. This woman literally breaks a sweat making sure the café is perfect for the cats and our visitors.

On top of all of that, she is constantly surprising us with the most thoughtful seasonal and holiday decorations. I’ll walk in and suddenly the café looks even more magical than before because Mona quietly spent her own time making it special. She puts so much love into every detail, and it shows.

We are beyond lucky to have Mona as part of our team. People like her do not come along often in life. She is truly one of those rare blessings that reminds you why you keep going even during the hardest days.

Mona, thank you for everything you do for PURR, the café and the cats. We appreciate you more than words could ever fully express. ❤️

Please help us with our most urgent task right now —finding a home for Peaches 💔😢💔😢💔😢!!

Some of you may remember Peaches’ story. She was rescued from ACCT after being found outside in heartbreaking condition and placed on the euthanasia list. When someone stepped up to foster her and promised to keep her until she was adopted, we truly thought things were finally turning around for her.

But less than a month later, the messages started that we know all too well (and are the reason we seldom accept new fosters 😡).

Although her fosters claimed that they just felt so bad that she was stuck in one room, they were okay with the knowledge that at the cafe, she would be stuck in a crate because she doesn’t get along with other cats. They dropped her off knowing how awful a cat cafe would be for a cat with her personality and, honestly, our hearts broke for her 😢😢. But, all of our foster homes are overflowing with cats, many with personalities similar to Peaches so there was no other place for her to go.

After weeks in a crate, we couldn’t bear it anymore and moved her into the back area of the cafe — a small hallway space that has now become her home for the past few months. Through all of the stress, instability, and constant change, Peaches has remained unbelievably loving, gentle, and easygoing.

More than anything, Peaches just wants to be close to people 🥹. Human attention absolutely makes her day. Her favorite thing in the world is climbing onto someone’s back and happily sitting there like the world’s sweetest little cat backpack.

The only thing Peaches truly struggles with is living with other cats. We’ve tried multiple times to make integrate her, but it’s simply not what makes her comfortable. What she really needs is a calm home where she can be herself — ideally as the only pet, where she can soak up all the love and attention she deserves.

Peaches is estimated to be over 10 years old. She survived life on the streets. She survived neglect. She survived the shelter system. And she survived losing the foster home that was supposed to be temporary until her forever family found her 😢💔😢💔😢💔😢.

Please consider opening your heart and home to this incredibly special senior girl. She deserves peace, comfort, and unconditional love for the rest of her golden years 🧡

Please help us find the perfect home for Mariah ❤️

Mariah has been with us since the very beginning — literally since the Cat Cafe first opened — which is honestly an incredible testament to just how adaptable and resilient she is, because the truth is… Mariah really is not a fan of other cats 😅. Despite living in a busy café environment for all this time, she has continued to show us every single day just how much she loves people.

Mariah is the kind of cat who wants to be your best friend, your cuddle buddy, your little shadow. She is unbelievably affectionate, incredibly loving, and has so much personality. She would absolutely thrive as the spoiled center of somebody’s world in a home where she can finally relax and not have to share her space with other felines.

She is estimated to be around 3–4 years old, is fully vetted, and is truly such a special girl. She’s also absolutely stunning and has waited far too long for a family of her own.

Please, please consider giving Mariah the happy ending she deserves. We would love nothing more than to finally see this beautiful girl leave café life behind and settle into a home where she can be adored the way she has always deserved to be ❤️

Mariah is a gorgeous 3–4 year old diva with plenty of personality to match her photogenic looks. She loves being the center of attention and would thrive as the only cat in the home so she can have all the love to herself. Mariah is the perfect balance of cuddly, playful, and independent. She’ll happily lay all over you and demand affection, but she also enjoys having her own space and alone time. With her sweet personality and main character energy, Mariah is looking for a home where she can truly shine. If you think Mariah may be the perfect match for you, you can meet her at PURR Cat Cafe or apply using this link (also in our Instagram/TikTok bios):

🎉🐾 DASH IS OFF TO A TRIAL ADOPTION! 🐾🎉

If you’ve been following PURR for a while, you know that Dash holds a very special place in our hearts.

Dash was born into our rescue and has spent virtually his entire life with us. He has grown up at the café, charming visitors with his larger-than-life personality, endless curiosity, mischievous antics, and affectionate nature. He is one of those cats who truly becomes part of your daily life, and we have desperately wanted to see him finally get a home of his very own.

We are thrilled to share that one of our previous adopters — who gave a wonderful home to another PURR kitty — has offered to give Dash a chance.

Dash has officially headed off for a trial adoption! ❤️. The adopter’s resident cat has lived successfully with other cats but was also perfectly content as an only cat, so we are hopeful that with patience and proper introductions, this could be the perfect match.

As with all trial adoptions, we will take a few weeks to see how everyone adjusts before making things official. We are trying not to get too excited, but it is impossible not to feel hopeful.

Please send Dash all the positive thoughts, prayers, lucky vibes, and well wishes you can. This incredible boy is so deserving of a family to call his own, and we are beyond excited about the possibility that his long wait may finally be over.

Good luck, Dash. We love you so much and are rooting for you every step of the way. ❤️🏡
