Corrections Policy

We try hard to get things right the first time, but mistakes and outdated information can happen — especially as veterinary guidance is updated over time.

If you spot an error

If you believe something on this site is inaccurate, outdated, or missing important context, please tell us through the Contact page, including a link to the page and a brief description of the issue.

What happens next

We re-check the claim against the original sources listed on the page (and, if needed, more recent sources). If a correction is warranted, we update the article and its “Last updated” date to reflect the change. For significant factual corrections, we keep a plain internal record of what changed and why, consistent with the sourcing standards described in our Editorial Policy.

Health and safety corrections

Corrections involving food safety, toxicity, or any other health-adjacent claim are prioritized and reviewed against primary veterinary or animal poison-control sources before the page is updated.
