Bushfire Appeal 2020

With the devastation of the bushfires affecting so many Australian families and animals, Mosman Vet is doing a small part to help.

We will have a donation box set up in our reception for the foreseeable future. We will be using every cent of these donations to buy medical supplies that will be transported to the wildlife centres in need in NSW and Victoria.

Mosman Vet will also be a drop off point for FRANKiE4 footwear / Animal Rescue Collective (ARC) bushfire appeal items for outside of their opening hours.
