À propos de l'événement
When the moon rises, we utter our wild, untamed howl! Join us for an official collaboration between Probe Ottawa and Capital Pups on October 19th for a pet play themed party.
Step into the moonlit wilderness for a primal affair, where creatures roam and passions flare beneath the glowing stars. Here, every shadow holds a secret, and every breeze stirs desire. Howl, growl, or prowl through the night as you indulge in your deepest fantasies.
Path on over to Probe for 6:00 PM to enjoy a casual social hang to get to know one another. Discover who's really got fur under the collar with an epic game of Ultimate Werewolf. As the moon rises and casts its silvery glow, unleash your inner creature and join us for a night of untamed energy. The main event begins at 8:00 PM, where you can let your wild side out and howl at the moon with us.
Please note: For the safety of our members and staff, the entry door will be locked after 12 AM (midnight).
To help everyone navigate the night, we will be providing colour-coded wristbands to easily and clearly communicate whether or not you are open to different interactions with other party-goers. Green, yellow, and red colours will be available.
- Green - Open to all pets and touches
- Yellow - Please ask for consent before touching
- Red - No touching please!
Regardless of wristband colour, make sure you have consent before engaging in any play.
6:00PM-8:00PM - Wolf Den Hang Out
As you arrive at Probe, you'll be greeted by friendly faces from both Probe Ottawa and Capital Pups. The initial gathering is intended to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, where our two communities can meet and get to know each other. Enjoy light refreshments and take the opportunity to introduce yourself, and ask questions to the Pups, while getting excited for the evenings paw-ty. Board games will be out and we're hoping to get a large group playing Ultimate Werewolf.
Anonymous HIV testing on-site (finger-prick testing - or paw-prick?)
Setting up from 6:00PM to 8:00PM in the quiet room we are so happy to welcome Somesert West doing on site anonymous HIV testing!
Rapid and anonymous HIV testing will be available during the social hang out with harm reduction outreach from Somerset West CHC. Testing takes about 15 minutes and you'll get your results on the spot. This is a great way to stay on top of your HIV status - Convenient, casual, and judgement-free!
We use a finger prick method (no traditional blood draw required) and test anonymously, so you won't be asked for your name/ID/personal information to get tested. While you're here, we can refer to other sexual health resources in the area and chat about PrEP, HIV basics, harm reduction, and more! [Les services sont disponibles en francais ainsi qu'en anglais.]
8:00PM-2:00AM - Howl at the Moon Play Party
