We appreciate your signing up with our Pet Adoption= Portal and we want you to know what to expect. Once you sig= n up with us, you should hear back within 24 business hours, depending on h= ow long it takes us to contact your veterinarian.
Depending on which accounts need to be set up, the entire setup process = can take up to two weeks. The most time-consuming part of the process= is requesting and receiving the Petfinder FTP account. If your organizatio= n already has a Petfinder FTP account, or you do not plan to update Petfind= er through the Pet Adoption Portal, the setup can be = completed in the same day.
The following are some of the most frequently asked questions we hear fr= om organizations interested in or signing up for, the Pet Adop= tion Portal.
When I make a change to my pet list, is there anything extra I need to d=
o to update the other sites?
No, the other sites will be updated aut=
omatically after you make a change to your pet list (once everything is set=
up).
When you enable the updates, will my pets change on the other sites?
=
Yes. Effectively, all of the animals listed on the other sites before t=
he Pet Adoption Portal will be removed (deleted) and =
your pets from the Pet Adoption Portal will be added.=
Assuming your Pet Adoption Portal pet list is the sa=
me as the other sites, the public won't see any difference in your pet=
list. However, since the animal ID numbers will change on the other sites,=
any links to those animals will no longer work.
IMPORTANT
Petfinder does not give us the capability to upload contact information = for the animal. We strongly recommend that you put contact information into= each animal's description. This not only helps on the Petfinder pet list b= ut also the pet lists on the other sites.
Will my pets appear the same to the public after my updates are enabled?=
The public will not be able to tell that your animals have been uploaded b=
y the Pet Adoption Portal instead of being added manu=
ally. However, there are a few things that may work a little differently th=
an expected, including:
