Animal Transfer
Don't you hate it when you purchase an animal and need to add its details to your Animal Manager manually? We understand that it can be tedious and time-consuming. Well, you no longer need to!
Buyers:
When you purchase an animal on MorphMarket, the seller can mark the listing as "Sold to [Your Name]" via Animal Manager, Bulk Action, or the Edit Animal page. This automatically transfers the animal to the "Purchased" tab in your Animal Manager.
Upon transfer, these animals are set to a "Not for Sale (NFS)" status and marked as private by default. You can easily edit the status and visibility of each animal at any time through the individual Edit Animal page or by using Bulk Actions. Additionally, you can update the animal's information with new details, such as weight and photos.
Important: Transferred animals will include the original images. Therefore, they cannot be listed for sale again until the original images are removed.
The original purchase information is preserved and shown at the bottom of the individual Edit Animal page in your private notes section. (Private Notes will not transfer if the animal is sold).

Sellers:
To transfer an animal to a new user, follow these steps:
- Change the animal's status to "Sold" using the Edit Animal page or Bulk Actions.
