Paradise Pets Swindon aims to publish accurate and trustworthy pet care information.

Health, welfare, legal, scientific and safety claims should be checked against current, relevant sources before publication. These may include GOV.UK, Defra, APHA, RSPCA, PDSA, BVA, veterinary guidance, official reports and original research. A source should support the specific claim; linking to an organisation alone does not verify every statement in an article.

When an article discusses a study, law, animal welfare update or public guidance, we aim to link to the original source or a reliable official source.

If information changes, we may update the article and show the updated date where appropriate.

Practical pet care information does not replace advice from a qualified vet. Do not assume that an article has received veterinary review unless a named reviewer and review scope are stated. Contact a vet promptly about illness, injury or unexplained changes in your pet.
