How we check

Two publishers per fact

Every fact on BuyCatnip rests on at least two independent publishers: veterinary schools, animal welfare groups, university extensions, pet food regulators and peer-reviewed studies. Two pages of one publisher count once. A clause that only one publisher supports is cut, not softened.

Numbered sources

Each fact carries small numbers that point to its sources at the bottom of the page, with a link to the exact page we read. When sources disagree on a number, we write the wording both support, or we leave the number out.

Affiliate links

Some pages end with a box of eBay search links. As an eBay Partner Network affiliate, we earn from qualifying purchases. The box is labeled as an ad, the links never change what a page says, and the facts on our pages never come from a seller.

What we never do

• We never write a price.
• We never invent a quote, a review or a source.
• We do not give veterinary advice: for your own cat, ask your vet.

How these pages are written

The pages are written with an AI assistant, then every fact is checked against its sources before it is published. If you find an error, write to us and we will fix it.
