What we do

Purple Whiskers Shelter Support brings essential wellness care to the GBV shelter, eliminating the barriers of transportation and wait times for an appointment at a local veterinary practice. We:

  • examine pets that have come from abusive environments to assess them for physical and mental trauma

  • provide vaccines and parasite treatment to protect both human and pet residents from physical illness

  • provide veterinary behavioural counseling to reduce stress

  • offer referral to offsite veterinarians, if needed

We provide compassionate, gentle care for pets and their people.
