Key Features
Smart Section Logic (Branching)
Species-Specific Routing: Automatically directs users to the appropriate sections based on species selection (Dog vs. Cat), keeping the form streamlined and easy to complete.
Extensive Breed Dropdowns: Pre-populated, alphabetized breed lists for dogs and cats (50+ cat breeds included) help standardize data for reporting and future system imports.
Industry-Standard Intake Data
Asilomar Accords–Aligned: Includes a dedicated Intake Asilomar Condition field (Healthy, Treatable–Rehabilitatable, Treatable–Manageable, Unhealthy & Untreatable) to support reporting, grant metrics, and live release rate calculations.
Detailed Intake Classifications:
Intake Type: Stray, Owner Surrender, Transfer, Confiscated, and more.
Intake Subtype: Granular options such as TNR/Community Cat, Night Drop, Bite Quarantine, Evidence of Cruelty, Disaster Relief, and other real-world scenarios shelters face daily.
Behavioral & Medical Context at Intake
Clear Intake Reason Tracking: Captures the why behind each intake—housing issues, financial hardship, owner health, behavioral concerns, and more—supporting trend analysis and community-based intervention planning.
Staff Observations: Dedicated space for immediate medical notes, condition descriptions, and staff identification at the point of intake.
Location & Jurisdiction Tracking
Geographic Data Fields: Structured fields for found or surrender location (street address, city, zip code) help identify stray hotspots, jurisdiction boundaries, and service trends.
