Archive a pet you're not caring for right now, like a foster who's found a home. Their records stay, with no time limit. Delete is for a pet added by mistake.
Archive a pet
- Open the pet's profile and select Edit.
- At the bottom, change the status from Active to Archived.
- Select Save Changes.
Archived pets move to a closed section at the bottom of the Pets page. They aren't offered in Log something, routines or Insights, and their doses and reminders stop. Doses still waiting on Care are cleared; doses already given or skipped stay in their history.
To bring them back, change the status to Active. Their routines pick up again.
To rename the archived section, like "Fosters", go to Pets › Manage › Archived pets, change the Section name and select Save.
Delete a pet
- Open the pet's profile and select Edit.
- In the status menu, choose Delete Pet….
- Type DELETE and select Delete.
The pet and all their history move to Recently deleted for 30 days, then are erased for good. Until then, you can restore them.
Change the list order
Go to Pets › Manage › List order, choose Name (A–Z), Name (Z–A), Youngest first or Oldest first, and select Save. The order applies to everyone in the household.
