Hello Weasel lovers, I've been thinking of designing a database to track the health of my four-legged family. I was thinking that it might be good to do so that I could extract any sort of data that might be pertinent. I have 3 cats and 2 ferrets, and I'm forever wondering who needs what and it seems that every time I get everyone caught up, somebody needs something else. Also, I think this would be good to have for emergencies and for if something should happen to ME and someone else must step in and take care of my pets. So, I am going to do a database in Microsoft Access and I'd like your help. Please email me any ideas for fields to include. Once I get the thing done, I'll post it to the FML and/or to a website and people can download it and use it. So far here's what I've thought of: Name Species Breed Date of Birth Immunizations by type and date Surgical history visits to the vet by date and reason for visit diseases and ailments Vet history and info (I've moved some and different vets have treated my kids) known allergies and conditions Food, drink, and other daily information (in case they need to be boarded or hospitalized, or God forbid, in case I'm boarded or hospitalized) Emergency information and contacts What to do with them in case of my hospitalization or demise. (Next of kin, etc.) Funeral plans for my pets I'd appreciate any insight you might have on this. I always forget things that might be useful, so please feel free to send comments and suggestions. Thanks! Lorraine Abraham Cosmo, Wazo, Camille, and of course, Tinkerbell and Tigerlily [Posted in FML issue 2752]
