Welcome to the Purrs & Puppy Breath Nursery, Inc. website!! We are the ONLY domesticated infant animal rescue in the United States. We are located in San Angelo, Texas.

We specialize in the rescuing and hand-raising of orphaned or abandoned kittens and puppies. Our motto is: We pick up where Nature left off.

If you are in a situation where you have infant animals that you cannot take care of, please contact us. If we have the space available, we will gladly take them into the Nursery and try to save them. You can call us at (325)659-3817 or you can email us at nursery@suddenlink.net.

ALL animals in the Nursery will be sterilized BEFORE they can go to new homes. We are a partner with PetSmart and the majority of our animals will be taken to PetSmart when they are ready for adoption.

We are ALWAYS in need of donations. Our Vet bills average $500 a month and the costs associated with infant animal rescue are staggering. If you are able and willing to make a donation to us, we will gladly send you a receipt for tax purposes. We are a 501(c)3 Non Profit Organization and we are in Good Standing with the State of Texas.

Approximately a year ago the Nursery began encountering what I called the "mystery ailment". The kittens that were dying on us would present with high fevers, lethargy, refusal to eat or drink and vomiting. Up until recently, those in the Veterinary community had me convinced that it was merely a drug-resistant strain of the Calicivirus. As of today (December 15th) we now have a diagnosis. It is Panleukopenia, also known as Feline Parvo. It is a virus that is typically fatal in kittens that have not been vaccinated against it yet. Unfortunately, dealing with the ages of kittens that we acquire, NONE of them can be vaccinated against this virus until they are at least a month old. So, it leaves us in a very vulnerable position. We are now in the process of trying to come up with a successful treatment plan to combat this virus in the youngest of the feline population. However, the odds are still very much against us winning this battle.
