This is information, not veterinary advice

Everything on this site is general information about natural care for dogs and cats. It is not a diagnosis, not a treatment plan, and not a substitute for a veterinarian who can examine your animal and knows its history. We write carefully and we cite our sources, but we have never met your pet.

Talk to your vet before you start a supplement, change a diet, or stop a medication, especially if your animal is pregnant, on other drugs, or has a diagnosed condition. If something looks urgent, call a vet or an emergency clinic rather than reading another article. You make the decisions about your pet's care, and you are responsible for them.

Affiliate links and who owns this site

The Wild Pet is published by HomeLife Media, the same company that makes Cannanine. Some links on this site are affiliate links, including links to Cannanine, and following one may earn us a commission. Guides that link Cannanine carry an ownership disclosure above the first paragraph, and every Cannanine link in the article text is tagged so you can see what it is before you click it. Full detail is on the About page.

Anything you do on another company's site is between you and that company, under their terms and their privacy policy. We do not control what they publish or how they handle your data.

No warranty, and the limit of what we owe you

We work to keep the site accurate and up to date, and we correct errors when we find them or when you tell us about one. Even so, the site is provided as it is, with no warranty of any kind, and we do not promise it will always be available or always be right. Research moves and pages age.

If these terms change we will update this page and the effective date at the top. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California. Questions go to hello@thewildpet.com, and how we handle data is on the privacy page.
