Need Help for an Animal or Bird?
If you come across an abandoned, injured, neglected, or surrendered small animal or bird, please contact Purple Patch Trust. While we do not currently operate a full-scale shelter intake facility of our own, we continue to assist through guidance, rescue coordination, referral support, and foster or adoption pathways where possible.
​
If you encounter an animal being harmed or mistreated, please remain calm and act carefully. Where it is safe to do so, try to defuse the situation without confrontation. If the animal requires urgent help, seek immediate veterinary attention or move the animal to temporary safety if this can be done without causing further harm.
​
If possible, please share photographs, your location, and a brief description of the situation so that we can guide you on the next steps.
​
Please note that many indigenous wild animals and birds are protected under Indian wildlife law, and keeping them as pets may be unlawful.
​
If you are an owner who can no longer care for a small animal or bird, please get in touch with us as early as possible. Depending on the case and available capacity within our network, we may be able to guide you on responsible surrender, foster support, or rehoming options.
Our aim is to support practical, humane, and responsible responses for animals in need, even where direct intake is not immediately possible.
