Editorial Policy

1. Primary Sources

All health/medical content cites primary sources (government agencies, veterinary associations, peer-reviewed journals). Priority sources:

• CDC / FDA / NIH
• AVMA / AAHA
• WSAVA / FECAVA
• Peer-reviewed veterinary journals (via PubMed)

2. Owner-First Voice

We avoid jargon and write for daily decisions: "what to do when you notice X," "what to record at home," and "when to call the vet."

3. Advertising Transparency

Articles containing product recommendations are clearly marked as PR. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. Product selection criteria:

• Categories with reasonable veterinary justification
• Products with public ingredient/spec information
• Independent reviews available

4. Updates & Corrections

We update articles promptly when new evidence emerges or errors are identified. Reader feedback: support@pettas.tech

5. AI Use

Article drafts are assisted by AI (Claude). All articles are reviewed by editors for factual accuracy, sourcing, and clarity before publication.

6. Disclaimer

Content is for educational purposes only and does not replace veterinary consultation. For emergencies, contact your veterinarian immediately.
