What this sheet is for

Get every animal in the house onto one page, so a sitter, a new vet or an insurer can be handed a single sheet instead of a folder. It also carries the feeding and medication detail that stops the wrong bowl going to the wrong animal.

Who it is for

Households with several pets, foster carers, rescues and smallholders keeping track of more than one animal.

How to use it

Give each animal one line, and fill in the microchip number and database for every one of them.
Note the vaccination due date rather than the last one given — that is the date you need to act on.
Use the second table for feeding and medication, including which animals have to be fed apart.
Redo the sheet whenever an animal arrives or leaves, and keep it with the insurance papers.

What is on the sheet

2 pages, in this order:

Page 1

Printed under the title: One page for a household with several animals: who they are, when they were born, their microchip numbers, who insures them and what falls due next. The page you hand to a sitter, or take with you if you all have to leave in a hurry.

One line each, kept up to date. Keep it with the passports and the insurance papers, and redo it whenever an animal arrives or leaves. Microchip and registration requirements differ by country and by species, so check what applies where you live and keep each database record current in its own right.

Questions

Why record the due date rather than the date given?

Because the due date is the one that requires you to do something. The full history of what was given belongs on that animal's own record sheet; this page is the summary you scan to see what is coming up.

Do the animals all need to be with the same vet?

No, and often they are not — some species are seen by a different practice entirely. There is a column for a vet who differs from the household's usual one, so the exception is on the page rather than in your head.
