Keep clear records for
your colony programme.
Bring together cat records, colony locations, care activity and programme costs. Use the recorded information to coordinate work and prepare reports for your council.
Maintain a record of cats at each colony
Create an animal profile for each cat and assign it to a colony location. Update the records as your team confirms new information so the location’s animal list reflects what has been entered.
- Keep a record for each identified cat
- Assign cats to colony locations
- Record neuter, microchip and ear-tip status
- Review the animals listed at each site
Review population trends by location
Analytics includes population history and counts by location. Compare recorded changes over time, and review the underlying animal and movement records when explaining a trend.
- See population information by colony
- Review trends over the selected period
- Compare intakes and outcomes
- Use recorded events to explain changes
Trace recorded changes
The activity log identifies actions, users and times. Logged field changes can show previous and updated values, helping your team follow up on corrections or unexpected entries.
- Review activity across the organisation
- Check the person and time recorded
- Inspect logged changes to field values
- Review recent activity on an animal profile
Give council staff appropriate access
Invite a council contact with Custom permissions. Choose view access for the relevant records and access to analytics, while leaving editing and unrelated areas disabled.
- Set permissions by feature area
- Choose access to analytics and the activity log
- Control finance and contact access separately
- Review permissions when responsibilities change
Share a public gallery when a login is unnecessary
Use a location or animal-list link to share selected information. Choose the fields visitors can see and review those choices before distributing the link.
- Share without an organisation login
- Select visible animal details
- Choose whether to show the organisation’s name
- Deactivate the link when sharing is no longer needed
Prepare information for your reporting process
Use the available analytics, exports and supporting documents to assemble the information your programme requires. Check which fields and records are needed for each report.
- Review animal and movement data
- Download available CSV exports
- Keep supporting documents with relevant records
- Discuss specific requirements before choosing a plan
Download records for further analysis
Organisation settings provides CSV files for available record types. Review the exported columns before using them in a report or transferring data to another system.
Review programme spending
Link expenses to cats or colony locations so your team can identify what the recorded costs relate to. Keep invoices with the payment records.
Keep supporting documents accessible
Attach service agreements, veterinary invoices and certificates to the relevant records. One document can be linked to more than one record.
Support reporting with consistent records
Agree how the team will record animals, movements and care activity, then keep those records current. Consistent entries make the available summaries and exports more useful when preparing a report.
Questions councils ask
Can we download the programme’s records?
Yes. Users with export permission can download the available CSV files in organisation settings. Each export contains selected columns; it is not a complete archive of all history and uploaded files.
ExportCan council staff view records without editing them?
Yes. Custom permissions let you choose View for the relevant record areas and enable analytics separately. Leave editing and unrelated access disabled.
User ManagementWhat information can help with programme reports?
Pawsies records animal identification, location, neuter status, movements and expenses, and provides population and activity history. Compare the available information with the fields required by your reporting process.
How can we check whether Pawsies fits our procurement requirements?
Prepare a list of the records, access controls, exports and service arrangements you need. Discuss those requirements before selecting a plan so the scope is clear.
Can we share information without creating an account for every reader?
Yes. Public links for locations and animal lists let visitors view selected information without signing in. You control the fields shown through the sharing settings.
See the plansCan separate associations use Pawsies?
Each organisation has its own workspace, records and team membership. Agree how information should be shared when several organisations contribute to a programme.
Is the app available in Spanish and Catalan?
Yes. Spanish and Catalan are available alongside English, German, French and Italian.
