Content Integrity

Life With Dogs is committed to maintaining our content and editorial processes’ integrity, high quality, and accuracy. Our professional, experienced writers, editors, veterinary professionals, photographers, researchers, and illustrators review and check all our content to ensure that whatever we publish is current, valid, and accurate.

We provide the highest quality content for cat lovers. Every article we publish is human-authored and supported by a byline featuring the writer’s name, a description of their background, and links to more information about them. Life With Cats never uses AI-generated articles produced by writing apps like ChatGPT.

We date all our articles to show when the piece was last updated with new information. Some of our articles have taglines providing additional information regarding our research sources and the author.

Our photographic images and videos are always genuine and not edited in any way that would misinform or mislead our readers. We create all the graphics and images we use internally to represent diversity.

We use expert editors to review all our content for relevance and accuracy. All factual inaccuracies and errors are corrected quickly and transparently, and we encourage our audience to highlight any errors we might have made.

Our contributors, writers, and editors must declare any possible conflicts of interest.

We keep all our advertising and editorial content separate and distinct, and we never permit our articles to be influenced by advertising.

Fact-Checking

Life With Cats has put together a team of experienced, professional researchers and fact-checkers to ensure the integrity of our content. All these experts are carefully vetted and chosen based on their subject matter expertise and journalistic experience.

Our team checks all content for relevance, currency, and accuracy before publication as part of our ongoing review process.

Accuracy and corrections

Life With Cats strives to provide our audience with high-quality, well-researched, accurate factual articles. We will amend the content quickly if we find any errors in our articles. We will update the content if the article is accurate but not detailed enough or if the language used is confusing.

Some of the content we publish is time-specific, so we do not include it in our routine review process. That said, our service content library articles are regularly reviewed, updated, and fact-checked for accuracy, completeness, currency, and relevance.

Sourcing

Our writers and editors have strict standards when it comes to content sourcing. Only reputable, reliable sources are used in our content, including academic and professional institutions and expert interviews. All the facts, claims, and data points we use are reinforced by at least one reputable source.

Life With Cats discourages the use of unnamed sourcing, as that damages reader trust. However, if an anonymous source is used, we will explain why and give our readers the relevant context.

Originality

Plagiarism is not tolerated. All our contributors and authors are required to adhere to and abide by the relevant journalistic practices, laws, and standards, including the following:
