Several animals
A calmer app for two cats, a dog and a windowsill
With one pet you remember. With three, the flea treatments drift apart and you stop being sure which one is due.
In review with Apple · iPhone, iOS 26 · Five profiles free when it lands
Multi-pet homes have a specific arithmetic problem. Each animal has its own intervals, they start on different dates, and they drift. Add a plant collection to the same house and the toxicity question multiplies too, because a plant that is fine around the dog may not be fine around the cat. This is the household Kounts Care was actually designed for.
What actually goes wrong: Three animals on the same treatment schedule but different start dates produce three separate answers to when is this due, and none of them is in your head.
Setting it up in Kounts Care
-
One profile per animal, not one per species
Each animal gets its own counters, so Biscuit's litter box and Nala's walks track separately even though both are pets. Tasks name the animal, which is what makes a shared list legible.
-
Set the intervals your vet gave you, per animal
Presets start you at common intervals, thirty days for flea treatment, ninety for worming, and every one is editable. Animals on different products or different schedules keep their own.
-
Share the household
In a home with several animals the care is almost always distributed. Sharing over iCloud means a completed task clears for everyone and the feed records who did it.
-
Add the plants and let the check run
The toxicity cross-reference runs against every cat and dog in the household, and the warning names the affected animals specifically rather than saying toxic to pets.
Worth knowing before you start
Five free profiles are shared across plants and pets and across the whole household. Three animals and a few plants will pass that, so a multi-pet home is generally a Premium household at $19.99 a year or $34.99 once, shared with your Family.
Why it suits this house
It re-checks the whole house when an animal arrives
Adopting a third pet triggers a rescan of every plant you already own. This is the case nobody thinks about, and it is the one where a shelf that was fine yesterday is not fine today.
Filters keep it readable
Today and the calendar both filter to plants or pets, so the dog's morning walk does not get lost among watering tasks.
One export per animal
Each pet has its own care history and its own PDF export, which is what an appointment needs. A combined household record would be the wrong thing to hand a vet.
Questions, answered
Can I track different schedules for each pet?
Yes. Every animal has its own profile with its own tasks and intervals, and each task is named with the animal so a shared list stays readable.
Does it handle animals other than cats and dogs?
There are presets for common household pets. The toxicity cross-reference specifically covers cats and dogs, because that is what the ASPCA data covers, so a rabbit or a bird gets counters and a profile but not a plant safety check.
How many profiles do I get for free?
Five, shared between plants and pets and shared across the household rather than counted per person. Premium removes the limit.
Can each person in the house manage a different animal?
Everyone sees everything, and the feed records who did what. There is no assignment of animals to people, deliberately, because that turns a care list into a chore chart.
Keep everything alive.
Five profiles free, shared across your whole household, with every toxicity warning included.
