Bonded Pets Management

Create a Bonded Relationship

1. Open a pet profile.
2. Select Relationships.
3. Find Pet Family and click Link Pet.
4. Select the companion pet and the Bonded relationship type.
5. Save.

Pet Family also supports parents, offspring, siblings, and litter context. Use the relationship type that describes the actual connection.

Review and Remove a Bond

Bonded companions appear in:

• Pet Family on the Relationships section.
• People & pairs in the right rail.

Select a companion to open its profile. Authorized Pet Managers can remove a relationship from Pet Family when it was linked incorrectly or no longer applies.

Public Information

The internal relationship itself is not a substitute for adopter-facing copy. Explain a required joint placement in the pet's public description or in a public custom field.

Foster and Adoption Placement

• Confirm that the foster or adopter can take the entire bonded group.
• Create a foster assignment or pending adopter relationship for each pet.
• Use notes or application context to record placement-specific discussion.
• Start the adopter's header-level Start Adoption action when all bonded pets are pending on the same adopter.

When adding an interested pet to an adopter, PawPlacer includes bonded companions in the selection flow.
