How do I use the Adoptions List?
Read the columns, filter and sort the list, and act on adoptions that need attention.
The Adoptions List shows every recent adoption with its survey check-ins, triage status and assigned staff, so your team can see who needs attention right now. Open it from Adoptions in the left navigation.

Find the pets that need you
- Triage Status: show only pets with a given status, such as Needs Contact.
- Check In Status: show pets whose surveys flagged a Medical, Behavioral or General issue. You can pick several types at once.
- Assigned Staff: show one person's caseload, or pets nobody is assigned to.
- Filters work together. For example, Needs Contact plus your name shows the pets waiting on you.
Sort the list: click the Adoption Date, Triage Date or Assigned To header. Click it again to go back.
