Adding a pet
+ at the bottom right of Pets. Pick a picture (๐ถ ๐ฑ ๐ฐ ๐นโฆ or More for any emoji), then:
- Name, and species or breed if you like;
- the vet: their or the clinic's name and phone;
- notes: food, allergies, habits โ what a babysitter or grandma should know.
Only parents add and change pets; children see them.
A pet
- The vet card calls them with one tap.
- Share at the top sends a link to the pet to someone in the family; Edit changes the details; the bin deletes the pet and its care tasks.
Vaccines and check-ups
+ on a pet's screen adds one: rabies, deworming, the yearly check-up โ with when it was last done and when it's due next.
- Parents get a reminder a week before and the day before it's due (at the time of the morning summary, never in quiet hours).
- When it's two weeks away or overdue, Done today appears beside it: it records today as Last and moves Next a year on. For a vaccine that isn't yearly, tap it and set the next date yourself.
- An overdue one shows in red, here and on the Pets list.
Care
Care is the pet's everyday jobs, as routines that repeat. Tap one of the ready-made ones โ Walk, Food, Water, Clean the litter, Clean the cage, Bath โ or + Other, and set:
- how often (every day, certain weekdays, monthly) and at what time;
- who: one child, or several taking turns โ Mia today, Leo tomorrow;
- the points for doing it.
Each day the job shows up in that child's My day like any other task, and earns its points when it's done.
Questions
Can children add the vaccines? No โ children see everything about the pet; parents change it.
Do children get the vaccine reminders? No, only parents. Children get their care tasks.
We have two dogs who are walked together. Make the walk on one of them, and write "both dogs" in its name.
