Tools
Interactive tools to help you understand and manage your pet's health. Built by vets, free to use.
The 2-Minute Mobility Check
A short, vet-built check that shows how your dog or cat is doing with arthritis right now, which management stage they are at, and what to focus on. A wellbeing aid you can retake to track how things change.
Understand Your Dog's Pain Relief
Build your dog’s prescribed regime and see how each medication acts at a different point in the pain pathway. An interactive explainer of the multimodal approach to chronic pain.
Understand Your Cat's Pain Relief
The feline counterpart: build your cat’s prescribed regime and see where each medicine acts. Cats process pain drugs differently and the options are narrower, so they get their own explainer.
IVDD Red-Flag & Grade Check
Worried your dog has a slipped disc? A vet-built walk-through of the red-flag signs vets look for in a disc emergency, the IVDD grade scale, and what to do right now. A guide to the signs, not a diagnosis, and it cannot rule an emergency out.
IVDD Crate-Rest Recovery Tracker
Following your dog through the weeks of crate rest after a disc injury? Track the neuro grade and recovery phase, see whether things are heading the right way, and know the signs that mean call your vet. Retake it to build a trend.
Cruciate Recovery Tracker
Following your dog through the weeks after cruciate surgery, or through conservative management? Track how the operated leg is being used week by week, the single most useful sign of recovery, see whether the knee is coming back, and know the signs that mean call your vet, like a leg suddenly used less or a wound problem. Retake it to build a trend.
Breathing & Cough Red-Flag Check
Your dog or cat is breathing fast or hard, coughing, or making a noise, and you are not sure how worried to be. A free, vet-built walk-through of the breathing emergencies vets look for first (open-mouth breathing in a cat, blue or grey gums, a pet that cannot settle, a flat-faced dog overheating), so you know how urgently to ring and what to tell your practice. A guide to the signs, not a diagnosis, and it cannot rule an emergency out.
Resting Respiratory Rate Tracker
Count your dog or cat's sleeping breaths a minute, the single best early-warning sign for heart trouble. Tap to count, see the normal, watch or high band against the 30 bpm threshold, and, for members, track the trend over time against your pet's own usual rate.
Heart Red-Flag Check
Worried about your pet's breathing, a collapse or sudden weakness? A quick, species-aware screen for the heart red flags that mean go to the vet now, including the feline saddle-thrombus emergency. By design it never talks you out of a real emergency.
Heart Disease Stage Explainer
Told your dog or cat is in 'stage B2' or 'stage C'? A plain-English explanation of what each heart-disease stage means, what is usually happening in the heart, what to watch for at home and roughly what comes next, for mitral valve disease, feline HCM and DCM.
Airway Diary & Heat-Risk Check
Following a dog or cat with an airway condition (feline asthma, collapsing trachea, laryngeal paralysis or BOAS)? Log the breathing, cough, attacks, exercise and what set it off, and watch the trend, plus a live heat-risk band for flat-faced dogs on warm days. The diary every airway specialist asks you to keep.
BOAS Self-Assessment for Flat-Faced Dogs
How much does breathing affect your flat-faced dog (pug, bulldog, French bulldog and similar)? Answer the questions vets use, add an optional walk-test, and get an indicative breathing grade to take to your vet. The Kennel Club's grading is vet-only with no self-assessment, so this is the at-home version, clearly labelled indicative, not the official grade.
Why Is My Pet Itchy? Check
Your dog or cat is scratching, licking, losing fur or smelly-skinned and you are not sure how worried to be. A free, vet-built check that walks you through the rare skin red flags vets look for first, then helps you work out where to begin, so you know what to tell your practice when you ring. It teaches the signs; it cannot rule an emergency out.
Skin & Itch Tracker
Score your dog or cat's itch 0-10 with a plain-language guide at every level, map where it is worst, and snap a photo of the worst patch. For members, watch the itch trend and photo timeline against your pet's own baseline — for an itchy pet, the diary is the proof you and your vet can both see.
Elimination-Diet Companion
The only reliable way to diagnose a food allergy is a strict 8-12 week diet trial, and it fails on compliance, not biology. A vet-built companion that counts you down, reads the itch from your check-ins, keeps you strict, and runs the provocation challenge at the end.
Faecal Score Tracker
Score your dog or cat's stool 1-7 with a plain-language guide at every level, and log blood, mucus, frequency, vomiting and appetite alongside it. A well-formed 2-3 is the target, both ends are off, and for members the trend towards that middle is the proof you and your vet can read across a diet trial or a flare.
Vomiting & Diarrhoea Red-Flag Check
Your pet is being sick or has diarrhoea and you are not sure how worried to be. A vet-built walk-through of the digestive emergencies vets look for first (a bloated retching dog, a possible blockage, parvo, sudden bloody diarrhoea, a swallowed toxin), so you know how urgently to ring and what to tell your practice. A guide to the signs, not a diagnosis, and it cannot rule an emergency out.
Kidney Disease Stage Checker
Turn your dog or cat's kidney blood results (creatinine or SDMA, refined by urine protein and blood pressure) into a plain-English IRIS stage, what it means, and what to focus on. An explainer of your vet's numbers, not a diagnosis.
Glucose Companion
Log your diabetic dog or cat's blood glucose, build a glucose curve to find the nadir, or import a FreeStyle Libre / CGM trace to see Time-in-Range, the mean and hypo events. For members, track the trend and export a vet report for a recheck. The home glucose record your vet asks for, in pet and insulin terms. It shows your data, not dosing advice.
Thirst & Wee Tracker
Drinking and weeing more is one of the first signs owners notice, and one of the most useful to measure. Log roughly how much your dog or cat drank over a day and it works out their ml per kg per day, the figure vets read, with a calm flag if it crosses the polydipsia (drinking too much) line, set lower for cats. Log the wee alongside, and for members watch the trend. The shared early-warning signal behind Cushing's, diabetes and kidney disease.
Liver Values Tracker
Log each dated liver panel — ALT, ALP, AST, GGT, bilirubin, albumin and bile acids — and watch every value trend over time, so you can see whether treatment is working. A vet-ready chart, not a diagnosis.
Straining-Cat & Blocked-Cat Check
Your cat keeps going to the litter tray but little or nothing comes out, or your dog cannot wee properly, and you are not sure how urgent it is. A free, vet-built check that asks the one question that matters most (is urine actually coming out?) and walks you through the red flags of the blocked-bladder emergency that kills male cats within a day, so you know what to tell your practice when you ring. It teaches the signs; it cannot rule an emergency out.
FIC Flare & Water Tracker
Feline cystitis (FIC) is recurrent and exhausting, and the things that calm it work slowly and invisibly. Log each flare to watch them space out over time, follow the recurrence interval, and track water intake, the cheapest and most effective lever for the bladder. For members it builds a flare timeline and a water trend to bring to your vet. A wellbeing aid, not a diagnosis.
Behaviour & "Is This Medical?" Check
A worrying change in your dog or cat’s behaviour and not sure where to start? A vet-built check that walks you through the medical red flags vets look for first (pain, illness, an older pet’s decline, a straining cat) and the safety flags (a bite, a child in the home), then points you to the right starting guide. It teaches the signs; it cannot rule a medical cause out — only your vet can do that.
Seizure Diary
Time and log your dog or cat's seizures with a live timer built for one-handed use mid-crisis, tag the triggers, and see straight away when a long or clustered seizure is an emergency. For members, track the seizures-per-month frequency your vet doses against, with a medication-adherence overlay, and export a vet report for a neurology consult. The record every vet asks an epilepsy owner to keep.
Eye Red-Flag Check
Your dog or cat has a sore, red, cloudy or suddenly different eye, or seems to be losing their sight, and you are not sure how worried to be. A free, vet-built walk-through of the eye emergencies vets look for first, so you know how urgently to ring and what to tell your practice. A guide to the signs, not a diagnosis, and it cannot rule an emergency out.
The At-Home Vision Check
Score how well your dog or cat is seeing right now across bright, dim and near-dark conditions, with a few simple at-home tests, and get a 0 to 100 sight score. For members, retake it to track the trend over time, ideal for cataracts, PRA and gradual sight loss. The objective sight curve no one else gives you. A wellbeing aid, not a diagnosis.
Eye-Drop & Pressure Tracker
Glaucoma and post-cataract eyes can need several drops a day, each to a particular eye, in order, on the clock. Keep the schedule straight, tick off each dose on your home screen, and (with a home tonometer) log eye-pressure readings with a flag when one spikes. It carries your vet's prescription, it is not dosing advice.
Healthy Weight Tracker
Score your dog or cat's body condition on the 9-point scale, log their weight, and, for members, track the trend toward a healthy target. Plateaus are flagged as normal, an ideal weight is estimated from the score, and a safety check warns if a cat is losing weight too fast. The shape of your pet is the single most useful thing to track — a wellbeing aid, not a diagnosis.
Feeding Calculator
How much should you actually feed? Enter your pet, their weight and the calories on the bag you already use, and it works out the daily amount in grams of your own food, for healthy weight or weight loss, with a treat budget built in. Brand-neutral and free — we are not selling you a diet.
Brushing Habit Tracker
Build a tooth-brushing habit that actually sticks: a gentle desensitisation plan, a streak to keep, and no guilt when life gets in the way.
Puppy & Kitten Growth Curve Tracker
Weigh your puppy or kitten each week and plot them on growth centile curves by sex and size band, read just like a child's red-book chart. Healthy growth follows a line: see when it crosses centiles up (over-nutrition, and joint strain in larger breeds) or down (under-nutrition or illness), and export a vet-ready chart. A wellbeing aid, not a diagnosis.
Vaccination & Worming Scheduler
Keep on top of your puppy or kitten's vaccinations, worming and flea treatments. Pick the course your vet uses (the UK early-finish course or the WSAVA course for dogs, or the core kitten course) and get a dated plan of what is due when, with gentle nudges for anything overdue. It tracks the timing, never the dose or the product, which are always your vet's call.
Socialisation Checklist
The weeks 3 to 14 are when a puppy learns the world is safe, and kittens have an even earlier window. A tickable checklist of the people, sounds, surfaces and handling to introduce gently, with real kitten parity. The key message: socialise safely while the vaccinations finish (carry, do not walk, and meet known, fully vaccinated dogs), never wait until the course is done.
Puppy Blues Self-Check
Feeling overwhelmed, exhausted or even regretful after getting a puppy or kitten? You are not alone: around half of new owners feel this, it is called the puppy blues, and for most people it passes. A gentle, normalising reflection, not a diagnosis or a test, that always points you to real human support if you would like it.
The Quality-of-Life Check
A gentle, vet-built quality-of-life check on the HHHHHMM scale, for when illness or old age raises the hardest question. Look honestly at how your dog or cat is doing, watch the trend, and prepare an open conversation with your vet. Decision support, never a verdict.
Lump & Bump Tracker
Found a lump on your dog or cat? Measure it, note how it feels, and track it over time. A vet-built tool that flags when a lump has crossed a line worth a vet visit — pea-sized or bigger, there a month, growing, ulcerated, fixed, or bothering them — and builds a clean history for your vet. It can't diagnose a lump; only your vet sampling it can.
The Senior Wellness Check
Is your older dog or cat slowing down, or is something changing? A gentle, vet-built check that gives two simple scores: their Vitality (body, energy, strength and appetite) and their Mind and sharpness (memory, sleep and habits). For members, retake it to track both trends over time and bring them to your vet. The whole-pet picture for an ageing pet, in one place. A wellbeing aid, not a diagnosis.
FIP Treatment Companion
Track daily dosing, weekly reweighs and the dose that must rise as your kitten grows, the 84-day treatment and observation counters, bloodwork trends and relapse red-flags — the record your vet needs.
