Ideas for a website? anyone?

Dude, plenty of shelters have online databases of their animals. This is NOT a new concept.
The thing that would be cool is merging all the databases and keeping accurate, up-to-date records. (Which is why it would be a huge undertaking).

But really, responsible pet owners MUST go down to all the shelters themselves and see the animals in person. Photographs are not always accurate since they're taken when the animal is caged and may act/look strange/ different. Chips are not always reliable because people entering info into databases transpose numbers, and make typos because they're either volunteers, paid very little, or just plain tired or stupid.
