Disclaimer

This Disclaimer explains the limits of the information and tools on Mad4Pets. We work hard to publish accurate, helpful and up-to-date pet-care content, but every animal is different and no website can replace hands-on professional care. Please read this page together with our Terms of Use and Editorial Guidelines.

01 General information only

All content on Mad4Pets, including articles, guides, checklists, tables, images, quizzes and calculators, is provided for general information and education. It is intended to help you understand pet care and have better conversations with professionals. It is not tailored to any individual animal, household or situation.

02 Not veterinary advice

Mad4Pets is not a veterinary practice, and our content is not a substitute for professional veterinary advice, diagnosis or treatment. Reading our website does not create a veterinarian-client-patient relationship.

• Always consult a qualified veterinarian about your pet’s health, diet, medication, vaccinations, behavior or any symptoms you notice.
• Do not start, stop or change any treatment, medication or diet based only on information from this website.
• Never give your pet human medicines or supplements unless a veterinarian has told you to. Many are toxic to animals.
• Never delay or ignore professional advice because of something you read on Mad4Pets.

03 Accuracy and currency

We base our content on established veterinary and animal-welfare guidance and review it regularly. However, veterinary knowledge evolves, recommendations can differ between countries and professionals, and errors can occasionally occur. We make no guarantee that any content is complete, accurate, current or suitable for your circumstances. If you spot something that looks wrong, please let us know through our contact page so we can review it.

04 AI-assisted content

Some Mad4Pets articles are drafted with the help of AI writing tools, working under strict instructions to follow mainstream veterinary guidance and to avoid invented facts. Like all our content, AI-assisted articles may contain mistakes and are provided for general information only. They should never be treated as professional advice.

05 Tools and calculators

Our pet age calculator, food and calorie calculator, name generator and pet-match quiz use general formulas and simplified assumptions. Their results are estimates and suggestions, not recommendations for your individual pet. For example, calorie needs vary with breed, age, health, neuter status, activity level and the specific food you use. Always confirm feeding amounts and health decisions with your veterinarian and adjust based on your pet’s body condition.

06 Breed, species and pet selection guidance

Descriptions of breeds and species describe general tendencies only. Every animal is an individual, and temperament, health and care needs can vary widely. Before adopting or buying any animal, research carefully, meet the individual animal, speak with reputable breeders, rescues or veterinarians, and make sure you can meet its needs for its whole life.

07 Training and behavior advice

Our training and behavior guides describe general, reward-based approaches. They are not a substitute for a qualified trainer, behaviorist or veterinary behaviorist, especially for aggression, severe anxiety or sudden behavior changes, which can have medical causes. If an animal shows signs of aggression, prioritize everyone’s safety and seek professional help.

08 Products and buying guides

Buying guides explain features to look for and do not endorse any specific brand unless clearly stated. Product availability, specifications, safety recalls and prices change over time. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions and current safety information, and choose products suitable for your pet’s size, age and health.

09 Affiliate and advertising disclosure

Mad4Pets may, now or in the future, display advertising and include affiliate links. If you buy a product through an affiliate link, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. These relationships never influence our editorial advice, and we will clearly disclose affiliate links where they appear. Advertisements are provided by third parties and do not imply our endorsement.

10 External links

Our content may link to websites run by other organizations. We provide these links for convenience and information. We do not control and are not responsible for the content, accuracy, privacy practices or availability of external websites, and a link does not mean we endorse them.

11 Images

Photographs are used to illustrate topics and may not show the exact animal, breed, product or situation being discussed. Many images are sourced from Pexels and credited to their photographers.

12 Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Mad4Pets and its team will not be liable for any loss, injury, illness or damage to any person or animal, or any other loss, arising from the use of, or reliance on, information, tools or links on this website. You use the information on Mad4Pets at your own discretion and risk. Nothing in this Disclaimer limits any liability that cannot be excluded by law.

13 Changes to this disclaimer

We may update this Disclaimer from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of the page shows the most recent changes.
