This plugin provides two easy ways to display listings of adoptable pets from a shelter’s profile at Adopt-a-Pet.com via iframe.
The first way is with a shortcode <code>pet_adoption_listings</code> that can be included in any post or page content. When used it will show the shelter’s available pets from their Adopt-a-Pet.com profile. The only required attribute is <code>shelter_id</code> (obtained from Adopt-a-Pet.com) but you can also specify the iframe width and height.
The second way is with a widget that can display available pets in your sidebar or wherever else widgets are in your theme. You can specify the Shelter’s ID (required, obtained from Adopt-a-Pet.com), the types of pets to show (defaults to All), and the height of the listing.
All pet detail links will open in a new browser window or tab on the Adopt-a-Pet.com website.
Note that the plugin loads content from a third-party site via iframe, and so may introduce cookies, tracking codes, etc. in addition to those present on your WordPress site. This plugin and widget is in no way affiliated with or endorsed by Adopt-a-Pet.com or its partners.

PetMatchPro

PetMatchPro is the most complete animal adoption plugin for WordPress. It connects your shelter or rescue website directly to the data management system you already use – so your available animals are always current, always branded, and always working to find forever homes.
Supported Integrations
<ul>
<li>PetPoint / Petango</li>
<li>RescueGroups</li>
<li>AnimalsFirst</li>
</ul>
Major Upgrade from 6.4.6 – A Whole New PetMatchPro
If you’re running an older version of PetMatchPro, the 8.x line is a complete leap forward. The plugin has been rewritten on a modern PHP 8.1+ foundation, with dozens of new operator-facing capabilities. Highlights since 6.4.6:
<ul>
<li>Lightning-Fast Analytics Dashboard – A new daily-summary architecture means dashboards that used to time out on busy shelters now load in under a second, no matter how many millions of events you’ve collected. Track impressions, detail views, adoption clicks, conversion funnels, traffic sources, peak engagement times, repeat visitors, and time-to-action – all from a single Analytics tab.</li>
<li>Smarter Impression Tracking – Impressions are only counted when a visitor actually dwells on an animal card (500ms minimum), so your numbers reflect real interest, not page-scroll noise. Pages with 300+ animals produce clean, meaningful data.</li>
<li>Conversion vs. Engagement Split – The dashboard now distinguishes adoption-intent actions (adoption application, email, phone, foster, meet-and-greet, donation, sponsor, volunteer) from engagement actions (video plays, shares, directions). Know what’s actually driving placements.</li>
<li>Visual Shortcode Builder – A new admin tab generates correct, copy-paste-ready shortcodes for the partner, method, license tier, installed templates, and field set you’ve configured. No more hand-typing parameters from the documentation.</li>
<li>Setup Wizard – A 13-step guided setup walks you through partner selection, method types, field presets, template choices, contact info, filters, labels, colors, and the poster page. Stand up a working configuration in minutes.</li>
<li>Hide Empty Fields – A per-method admin toggle (plus a shortcode parameter) suppresses empty fields on both search cards and detail pages. Cleaner layouts for unnamed-intake animals and partial records.</li>
<li>Search-Card Hover Text – Standardized, accessible tooltips and ARIA labels on every animal card across all three partners, with method-aware defaults (“Have You Seen {Name}?” for lost, “Help Rehome This {Species}” for found, “Learn More About {Name}” for adopt).</li>
<li>Lost & Found Search – Combined lost-and-found search results, partner-aware location handling, and printable lost/found posters with QR codes that route back to the animal’s detail page.</li>
<li>Print Posters – One-click adoptable, lost, and found posters with branded layouts, QR codes for last-seen or found locations, and the option to set a dedicated poster page.</li>
<li>Currency Symbols Worldwide – £, €, and $ now render correctly on detail pages, search cards, and posters – regardless of your locale.</li>
<li>Modernized Template Library – 60+ search and detail templates across all three partners, including default, conversion, conversion-no-app, profile, navigation, similar-animals, and celebration variants. Theme template overrides are supported (Junior+).</li>
<li>Multi-Lingual Ready – Full Spanish (es_ES) translation included; .pot file regenerated from current source for any custom locale.</li>
<li>WordPress.org Compliant – Color values validated at save and at render. Unserialize calls hardened against object injection. License-gated UI is hidden rather than shown locked. Operational logs route through a structured logger so error_log entries are debuggable in one round-trip.</li>
<li>Self-Healing Database – Schema migrations run automatically on the next admin page load after upgrade. No deactivate/reactivate dance.</li>
</ul>
What PetMatchPro Does for You
Whether you manage a large municipal shelter or a small breed-specific rescue, PetMatchPro gives you the tools to showcase your animals and measure what’s working:
<ul>
<li>Live Animal Listings – Adoptable, found, and lost animals pulled directly from your data management system in real time.</li>
<li>Branded Search & Display – Fully customizable search filters, field labels, colors, fonts, and layout so your listings match your website – not a generic widget.</li>
<li>Built-In Analytics – Track impressions, detail views, conversion actions, repeat visitors, and time-to-action. Understand what’s actually driving placements.</li>
<li>Simple Shortcodes – Place animal search, detail pages, single fields, and admin option values anywhere on your site. Five shortcodes cover every use case.</li>
<li>Visual Shortcode Builder – A guided builder generates correct shortcodes for your configuration. No documentation required.</li>
<li>Setup Wizard – 13-step guided setup gets you from install to live in minutes.</li>
<li>Free to Install – Works out of the box with PetPoint, RescueGroups, or AnimalsFirst – no credit card required to get started.</li>
</ul>
Why Shelters Choose PetMatchPro
Most shelters rely on an embedded iframe or a redirect to their data system’s generic public portal – giving up control of the visitor experience, losing branding, and getting zero data in return. PetMatchPro keeps visitors on your site, in your brand, and gives you the visibility you need to place more animals.
<blockquote>
“PetMatchPro is the missing link between your shelter software and your website.”

Third-party API integrations 
PetMatchPro retrieves filter values and species/breed/color lists from AnimalsFirst and RescueGroups APIs on-demand when administrators click the “Refresh Filter Values” button in the plugin’s admin settings. PetMatchPro also retrieves animal records from the configured shelter management system (PetPoint, AnimalsFirst, or RescueGroups) on every public-facing page render. No data is sent off-site without an explicit administrator action; no analytics or telemetry is sent to a vendor-controlled server.

Connect your animal shelter or rescue website to PetPoint/Petango, RescueGroups, or AnimalsFirst - and turn visitors into adopters.
