I have a file for each. They are all filed downstairs in a file cabinet. Because I, almost always, bring home rescues, if I ever work with a rescue group that doesn't know me, or would question something about my care, prior to releasing an animal to me, I have records that I don't have to bother a vet for.

Some rescue organizations are very strict, and make you jump through quite a few hoops, when it comes to placing their animals. I am glad, and wish breeders were similarly so.

What I've generally done with such paperwork is to wait for the next major holiday of the few that I celebrate - which are celebrated on the solstices and equinoxs.  At each of those holidays, I build a fire, and "feed" it tokens or mementos of things that I've had to deal with since the previous one.  Generally this means tokens concerning griefs or problems, anything that might contribute to significant emotional baggage.  The Samhain fire (which is coming up in just a few days) also gets the mementos of any issues that have carried over from one year to the next.  There are things - like the emotions surrounding a couple of my ex's - that get fed to the fire several times before they finally become what I consider a "non-issue."
 
Feed the papers to the fire, pour out a libation in honor of their memory, and then set it squarely in the past.

Hiz,   ridding papers can be therapeutic.

I am always amazed at how much I have when I purposely try not to.
