## Messages to send Mindie
- Yearly booster: "Every year on 10 March at 10am remind me Bruno's vaccination booster is due"
- Monthly treatment: "On the 1st of every month at 9am remind me to give Bruno his flea and tick treatment"
- From the vet card: "Note: Bruno's microchip number is 9851 1200 3344 556"

A pet vaccination reminder on WhatsApp is a message when your pet's boosters, deworming or flea treatment are due. With Mindie, send "every year on 10 March at 10am remind me Bruno's vaccination booster is due" once, and it comes every year.

Pet care runs on schedules that are easy to lose: yearly boosters, monthly flea treatment, deworming every few months. The vaccination card sits in a drawer until the vet asks for it.

## What to set

- **Yearly boosters** a couple of weeks before they're due, so you can book the vet.
- **Monthly flea and tick treatment** on a fixed day.
- **Deworming,** at the interval your vet gives. For every three months, say "every 3 months" with the day and time.
- **Kennel or travel requirements,** before trips.

## Why pet care slips

- **Different intervals** for different treatments.
- **Several pets** with their own dates.
- **The card is never at hand.**

## Habits that help

- **Photograph the vaccination card** after every visit and send it to Mindie.
- **Note the microchip and insurance numbers** once.
- **Book the vet** when the reminder arrives, not on the due date.

## How Mindie handles it

Send each reminder in words or as a photo of the card. Mindie confirms and messages you on time, every year or every month.

## What Mindie doesn't do

- **It isn't veterinary advice.** Your vet sets the schedule.
- **It doesn't book appointments.**

## FAQ

### Does Mindie know my pet's vaccine schedule?
No. Your vet sets the schedule. Give Mindie the dates from the vaccination card.

### Can I photograph the vaccination card?
Yes. Mindie reads the due dates and sets reminders after checking them with you.

### I have several pets. Can I keep them apart?
Yes. Put the pet's name in each reminder and note, and ask "when is Luna's next booster?"

### Can I set it while I'm at the vet?
Yes. Send the next date the vet gave you, and Mindie sets the reminder before you've left the clinic.

### Can I also set flea and worming reminders?
Yes. Give each its own repeat, based on what your vet recommends, and name your pet in each.
