Animal control

How to issue an animal license

Rescuely assigns the license number so nobody keeps a separate list to avoid a duplicate.

⏱ 2 minutes Needs the Staff role (or higher)

  1. Open Licenses and choose Issue. Pick the animal and its owner.
  2. The license number is assigned for you. It is the next number in your shelter’s own sequence - you never type one in.
  3. Renew or update status later. From the same license record, rather than issuing a new one each year.
