Animals

Organising rescue transports: convoys, stops and spaces on board

For rescues that bring animals in from far away: plan each convoy, book on the reserved animals and know at which stop each one gets off, and who is waiting for it.

Every convoy prepared, every animal in its place

01

Standard routes

Define your transport types: a name, the stops in route order, a comment carried over to each convoy. A new convoy takes on the route when you choose its type.

02

Spaces counted

Each convoy has its date and its number of spaces in the van. The occupancy bar shows what is left, and a full van accepts no more bookings.

03

Who gets off where

For each animal booked on, you choose the stop where it gets off. The convoy shows its animals stop by stop, with the adopter or foster home waiting for them.

Frequently asked questions

Is the module for every shelter?

No. Rescue transports are a separate page: a shelter that doesn’t run convoys can hide it, using role permissions.

Can a route be reused?

Yes. A transport type keeps its name, its stops and a comment: just choose it when you create the convoy.

Is a convoy’s arrival entered in the register?

The entry reason “Transport” exists in the register. Each animal’s entry is recorded when it arrives; the convoy does not write it for you.
