"Oscar is a feral rescue and he hides from strangers. He is a sweet cat, but needs extra time to get used to visitors."
"Ollie and Max are a bonded pair. Should something happen to me, they should not be separated - it would be devastating to them."
"Lily doesn't like drinking out of a water dish. Instead, I keep a glass on my nightstand just for her. I know for sure now that she's getting fresh water everyday."
"Amos loves to scratch and use his claws to sink into a nice scratching post. Over time, we discovered that he really only likes horizontal, cardboard scratching posts....so we keep several around the house for him. Without it, he'll just use the carpet :("
"Sweet Pea has a beautiful coat - but sometimes it gets matted and knotted. She hates being brushed, so I take her to the groomer about every three months. She gets a "puss in boots" haircut, leaving her head, feet and tail fluffy and manageable."
"Betsy is an awesome cat - but definitely has her quirks. Betsy will only eat wet food if it is made by a certain brand and is the chicken paté flavor...and get this - it has to be COLD or else she won't eat it!"
PetFolio allows cat owners to enter the details of their cat’s daily living routines so that they can be properly cared for should something unexpected happen to you: sudden or grave illness, hospitalization, unexpected travel delay, or (gasp) death.Cat owners know that our pets tell us their preferences – be it the type of kibble, the flavor or brand of treats, or even the type of litter box they like.

They will also have access to any pet professionals your cat sees including your veterinarian, groomer, and pet sitter.

If you need help, you can text the PetFolio system with your unique ID and the system will send out alerts to your designated caregivers (guardians).If you are unable to alert the system yourself, anyone else that is caring for you can activate the system by texting PetFolio using your unique ID that is printed on your wallet card and keychain card.

With PetFolio, you are able to name three designated caregivers or as we call them, “guardians.” A guardian is someone you trust to take care of your cat(s) should something unexpected happen to you. This could be a friend, neighbor, family member, co-worker – anyone that you know and trust.You will provide us with your designated caregiver’s email address and we will send them an invitation to set up a “read-only” account. They will be able to see your cat’s preferences but will not be able to make changes to your account. Only you, the cat’s owner, can make changes to your cat’s account.
