## Description

Running a pet boarding or kennel facility means constantly balancing your animal population against available sleeping space. This MCP gives your AI client the math skills to handle that logistics work for you. Instead of manually counting beds and checking spreadsheets, you can ask your agent to run the numbers on your current inventory or project future needs. You can check if you have enough room for a sudden influx of pets or look at how efficiently your current beds are being used. It takes the guesswork out of facility management by providing direct answers to capacity questions, helping you avoid overbooking or sudden shortages.

You can use the `validate_facility_capacity` tool to compare your current bed count against the required amount based on your pet population and allocation ratio.

**Can I plan for future pet arrivals?**
Yes, the `estimate_expansion_needs` tool helps you predict how many additional beds you will need to purchase to accommodate projected pet counts.
