Introducing Veterna
Veterna is a WordPress block theme for animal rescue organizations, shelters, and pet welfare charities. Put your rescue mission and animal welfare work at the center of your website. Built with Full Site Editing (FSE) and Gutenverse, it gives you a visual starting point that you can adapt to your own brand.
Use Veterna to build on this visual direction. Introduce your organization, describe how you support animals, and share genuine rescue stories or adoption information. Publish accurate contact details and explain the volunteer or support channels your team actually manages. Customize the typography, colors, imagery, and content in the WordPress block editor with Gutenverse, then replace the demo details with your own. This premium theme requires Gutenverse PRO and an eligible license for the selected template. The current theme requirements list WordPress 7.0.0 and Gutenverse 3.2.1.
Who This Theme Is For
Veterna is designed for animal rescue organizations, shelters and pet welfare charities. Choose it to introduce an animal welfare organization and explain its work. This PRO edition suits teams choosing a premium design built with Gutenverse PRO and an eligible template license.
Pages and Layouts
Veterna includes layouts for Contact, Blog, Team, Adoptions, Donations, Services, About, and Home, giving you a starting point to introduce an animal welfare organization and explain its work. Use the Team layout to introduce the people behind your organisation and their experience. Use the Adoptions layout to explain your mission and provide information about getting involved.
Supporting layouts help you organise information for different visitor needs. Use the article layouts to share updates, useful insights, or stories relevant to your audience. Use the contact layout to present your contact details and explain how enquiries are handled. Replace the sample content with your own and customise the typography, colours, images, and spacing through the WordPress block editor with Gutenverse PRO.
Things to Know
Things to KnowA quick overview of the demo content, requirements, customization options, and other details to help you get the most from your setup.
What’s Included in the Import?
Veterna includes page-import files containing block layouts, sample text and demo image references. Importing a selected layout adds that sample content; image downloads depend on the referenced files being available.
For the design overview, see Pages and Layouts. A menu definition is included; review the imported links and assign your navigation after import. The theme supplies its style defaults; importing content does not configure your own logo, contact details or connected services.
Requirements & License
Use Veterna with WordPress and activate Gutenverse, Gutenverse Form and Gutenverse Companion. Access to this premium design requires an eligible Gutenverse account and license for the selected theme.
See Theme Information for the version requirements and, where applicable, eligible plans. Gutenverse Companion supplies this theme’s extensions and import workflow. Gutenverse Form provides the form blocks used by this design.
Editing & Customisation
Edit Veterna’s site templates and shared header/footer through Appearance → Editor. Edit the imported page content in the WordPress block editor, then select individual Gutenverse blocks to change their text, imagery, spacing and responsive settings.
Update navigation labels and destinations after creating your own pages, configure form recipients and test a submission, adjust post-block queries to show your own articles, review popup content and triggers, set the map location for your business and replace video links with your own media. Keep the required theme extensions active when editing blocks supplied with this design.
Is Veterna Right for Your Website?
Before choosing Veterna, compare the preview with your own text lengths, image proportions and main call to action. Pay particular attention to its team and rescue story layouts when deciding whether to preserve the demo’s visual emphasis or adapt the structure to your content.
Adoption processing, donor payments and animal records require separate workflows. Keep animal availability and rescue information current through your own content process.
