⚠️ Important: If you change your pet’s status to anything other than active (e.g. deceased or rehomed), they will no longer appear on the dashboard. However, the medical record will still be maintained in our system.

🎯 When to use this

Use this feature if your pet’s details have changed or if you notice incorrect information on your account. Keeping your pet’s information up to date helps us provide the best care and ensures your records are accurate when booking appointments.

❓ FAQs

Why can’t I edit some pet details? The following fields are not editable: pet name, microchip number, weight, and status (if there is an active health plan). This is to ensure the medical record remains accurate and up to date within our systems.
