In 2019, we underwent a renovation and ownership change, which technically makes this Portland’s second attempt at its first cat café.

Pongo, Socks, & Lenny were also adopted in November!
These three sweethearts have so much love to give in their own unique ways - Pongo would squeak at you with his funny, raspy voice to let you know he wanted your lap, Socks would warily come out of his covered bed to get pets, and Lenny would launch himself across the room in a flying leap or scale your legs to reach your shoulder.
We are so happy these three have loving, permanent homes with family members to give all their love to! 💓

More November adoptions to brighten your holiday season!
A Purrington’s staff member adopted sweet Chevy! (We love when this happens!) And Mellon now has a sibling some of you may remember - Honey Bun! We’re really hoping for some photos of them together once they’ve had more time to get acquainted. 🤞
Luigi also has a new sibling (a !)
We hope everyone is having a snuggly holiday season, and we’re so happy for Chevy, Mellon, & Luigi!

Continuing to post adoptions from our last week open in November! Lila & Leo are playing hard, giving/getting lots of love, and riding on the shoulders of their new family!
Boscoe’s family has reported “He likes to rub his face up against ours and lick it even! My neighbor who has a cat said we won the cat jackpot lottery! We already love him so much!”

You may have noticed we’ve been taking a little break from social media and haven’t yet announced our November adoptions. It was a whirlwind of a month, and these three sweethearts ended up coming down with kitty colds and needed some extra TLC from our partner shelter’s medical team,
Patty Cakes, Mister Delilah, & Night Meow had already met their humans in the cat lounge. These lovely adopters patiently waited for them to recover and are now enjoying time with their healthy, happy new family members!
We’re so grateful to the medical team and volunteers for helping these three get ready for their new families! 💓

It has already been a few weeks since we closed our doors, but that time has not made the fact that we decided to step away any easier. We put our all into Purrington's, and with your help, we were able to create something special.
Thank you to everyone who adopted from us and walked away with a new companion or two. The mission of our business was to help cats find homes, and thanks to you, over 300 cats call themselves Purrington's 2.0 alumni. Thank you to everyone who made us a part of your weekly or monthly routine. We loved nothing more than seeing familiar faces and having conversations. Thank you to everyone who trusted us and were vulnerable enough to share photos and stories of both joy and heartache.
Service is a privilege, and it was an honor to welcome you all into our space and try to provide you with an enjoyable experience. We were fortunate to meet so many wonderful people and work alongside some amazing staff members. Those daily interactions and connections are what we miss the most.
We don't know what the future holds for Purrington's, but what we do know is that we are proud of what you all helped us accomplish. We will be sure to let you all know of any developments. In the meantime, please know that our decision to step away was very hard and personal, and despite the whispers, had nothing to do with the city, our neighborhood, or our level of business.
We look forward to sharing the last of our adoptions with you in the coming days. We are happy to report that all of the cats went to new homes and are spending the holidays with their new families. We wish you all a joyous holiday season and thank you for your visits and kind words. They mean more than you know.
With gratitude, Helen and Garrett

We are excited to announce that we are now serving cider from our friends .co at Purrington's. Located in Cascade Locks, Son of Man makes Basque-style ciders that are tart, funky, & delicious. We are serving the Basajuan cider that is actually made in the Basque country, just outside of San Sebastian, Spain.
Who better to announce our new Basque cider than Sebastian, who, like the cider, is funky & awesome. Come by during our last few weeks and grab a can to enjoy with the cats, in the cafe, or at home.
