# How to edit your pet's details

Open your pet on the main screen, tap the three dots at the top right, then tap Edit. Change what you need and tap Save. Only the account owner can edit a pet.

You can change your pet's name, photo, species, breed, gender and birthday at any time.

## Edit your pet

1. Tap your pet on the main screen.
2. Tap the three dots at the top right.
3. Tap **Edit**.
4. Change what you need:
   - tap the photo to choose a new one,
   - your pet's name,
   - **Species** and **Breed** (see [How to select your pet's breed](https://www.kidplay.ai/help/how-to-select-your-dog-puppy-breed)),
   - **Gender** and **Neutered?** or **Spayed?**,
   - **Birthday**.
5. Tap **Save**.

## Don't see the three dots?

Only the owner of the account a pet belongs to can edit it.
If someone shared the pet with you through their team, ask them to make the change.

The yellow star at the top of the screen is not about editing.
It means you are on the free plan, and tapping it shows the Premium options.

## Archive a pet or mark them as passed away

You can do this from the same **Edit** screen.
See [How to archive a pet or mark a pet as passed away](https://www.kidplay.ai/help/how-to-manage).

## Delete a pet

1. Tap your pet on the main screen.
2. Tap the three dots at the top right.
3. Tap **Delete**.
4. Tap **Yes** to confirm.

Deleting a pet removes them and their reminders from every phone on your account.
Their entries are kept, so if you change your mind, our support team can bring the pet back.
See [Can I get back a pet I deleted?](https://www.kidplay.ai/help/can-i-get-back-a-pet-i-deleted).
To hide a pet without deleting them, archive the pet instead.

## Troubleshooting

- **"A Name is Required"**: enter a name before you tap **Save**.
- **"The Name is Not Long Enough"**: the name needs at least 2 letters.
