Welcome to Whispaws

A sanctuary for abandoned animals in Serbia 🇷🇸

The Whispaws Story

During the summer of 2019 we met Jimi, pictured here, outside of a supermarket in Bar, Montenegro.

He was wandering around parked cars, looking extremely sick waiting at their doors as if asking someone to help him, so we did.

Jimi’s rescue reignited a dream of one day opening a shelter and charity. That dream is now a reality in the form of Whispaws Animal Sanctuary.
