Affiliate Links on Pawsavvy Guide
When you click a link to a product, a brand, or a retailer on this site, that link may be an affiliate link. If you go on to make a purchase through that link, we may earn a small commission. The important part: this costs you nothing extra. The price you pay is exactly the same whether you use our link or go directly to the retailer.
How It Works
Here is the short version. You click a link on our site, your browser carries a tiny referral cookie, and if you buy something within the retailer’s cookie window, the retailer pays us a small percentage of the sale. That commission comes out of the retailer’s marketing budget — not out of your pocket.
Our Partners
We work with (or plan to work with) trusted pet retailers and programs, including Chewy, Petco, and Amazon, as well as individual pet brands whose products we genuinely like. This list may grow over time, and this page will be updated to stay accurate.
Does This Affect Your Price?
No. Affiliate links never increase the price you pay. In fact, we sometimes include links to the retailer currently offering the best deal, so you can get the best price while supporting the site at no cost to you.
Does It Affect What We Recommend?
No — and this is the part we care most about. Our recommendations are based on our real experiences with our own cats, our research, and feedback from readers. An affiliate relationship never decides what we write, how we rate a product, or whether we recommend it. If a product is not worth buying, we will say so, even when it is an affiliate product.
Our Review Process
We only recommend products we have actually used with our own cats whenever possible. When we have not personally tested something, we say so clearly and explain why we still think it is worth considering. We aim to give honest, practical advice that helps you and your cat, not a sales pitch.
FTC Compliance
In line with Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines, we clearly disclose our affiliate relationships. You will see this disclosure at the top of articles that contain affiliate links, and this page serves as a standing disclosure for the whole site.
