42 words, every one from the shelter's records.

Short because the shelter has recorded only a few facts. Add observations (behaviour with people, other animals, on the lead) for a full listing of 75 words or more.

  • Not yet known, so not mentioned: children, dogs, cats, house-training and bite history.
  • Backstory and time in the shelter are kept for staff, not printed.
Edit and approve

Approving gives you a copy-ready listing and records the version and name for a trial, never the text.

Why compare with Yellowstone
A widely watched drama with nothing to do with pets. Places and map cells that rank high for both are popular generally, not because of pets.
Left out as event venues
TABOO Astoria (hookah), Aloha NYC (hookah), Deja Vu New York (hookah) and Crystal Lounge (hookah).
Lift on the map
The pet show's score minus the baseline's score in the same cell. It is relative: where in this area pet-show fans stand out, not how many there are.
