Purr Bred: A Pure Bred Cat Adoption Experience

Student Project
https://justinfuss.com/project/purr-bred
The Problem:
Purr Bred has contacted me to create a responsive website for their feline awareness and adoption/breeder connection company. They are moving to the digital world and want to help their customers connect with cat breeders and shelters to purchase or adopt the cats they are looking for. They are also hoping to find a way to communicate the best way to care for any breed of cat, so their customers are equipped to take care of them and know what they are getting into.

The Approach:
I applied the Design Thinking approach based on an iterative process to explore possible problems, barriers, and pain points among people who search for and purchase pure bred cats. Project timeline: 80 hours.

Reflection:
This project was the most in depth prototype I have created for a student project. This gave me a large appreciation for the Design Thinking process. Working through the steps of the design thinking process helped me manage creating an effective product within the limited 80 hour timeline.

This project taught me to keep to a tight timeline and manage the many deliverables that need to be created throughout the process. This has prepared me for working in a professional environment creating real world products.
