Keep each cat’s details
in one place.
Record each cat’s appearance, behaviour, health and care history. Find the information your team needs for colony work, shelter care and rehoming.
Identify cats by more than their name
Keep photos and identifying details together so volunteers can compare a cat with the record. Record distinctive markings and alternative names used by the team.
- Select coat colours and pattern
- Record eye colour and fur length
- Add photos and identifying notes
- Search by name or microchip number
Share what you have observed about behaviour
Record how a cat responds to people and other cats. Add notes that explain the circumstances, so the next caregiver has context when handling the cat or discussing a possible home.
- Record approachability, including Unknown
- Describe behaviour with other cats
- Record the cat’s living situation
- Add observations as you learn more
Distinguish confirmed health details from unknowns
Neuter, microchip and ear-tip status each allow Yes, No or Unknown. Leave an unconfirmed detail as Unknown and update it after the relevant check.
- Record neuter and ear-tip status
- Store the microchip number
- Keep medical notes and veterinary documents
- Record prescribed medication schedules
Organise cats by where they receive care
Assign cats to colony, shelter or other location records. Record foster placements separately, and use lists to group cats for a particular job, such as arranging neutering.
- Create and map your locations
- Record last-seen information
- Link a foster placement to its carer
- Create Smart Lists using selected conditions
Record feeding rounds on your phone
The weekly feeding board shows animals and their recorded meals. Filter by location to work through one colony or shelter area, then record each feeding as you complete it.
- Configure one to five feedings per day
- View the week’s recorded feedings
- Filter the board by location
- Review feeding history for a cat
Keep identification photos together
Add up to five photos to an animal record. Include views that help the team recognise the cat, such as its face and distinctive markings.
Track availability for adoption
Set the cat’s adoption status, from Not Available to Adopted. Share a list of available cats through a public link with the fields you choose.
Record expenses for individual cats
Link veterinary bills, food or transport expenses to the relevant cat. The record then gives your team a way to review those recorded costs.
On every cat record
Questions cat people ask
How can we distinguish cats that look alike?
Use photos together with coat colours, pattern, eye colour, fur length and identifying notes. Alternative names help when volunteers know the same cat by different names.
Can we manage colony and shelter cats together?
Yes. Both use animal profiles, with locations identifying where they receive care. You can also record sightings, feeding history, movements and foster placements as needed.
What features support trap-neuter-return work?
You can record neuter and ear-tip status, map colony locations, log feeding rounds and record a return to location as an outcome. Analytics includes population history by location.
TNR & cat coloniesCan we add our own fields for cats?
Yes. Add fields to the Cat animal type in organisation settings. Choose the answer format and whether a supported field should be available for filtering.
Custom FieldsHow do we record kittens and litters?
Create a separate profile for each kitten, with a name or temporary identifier and a birthday or estimated age. Use Born in care as the intake reason when appropriate.
