Effective Date: May 4, 2026

Welcome to GoodCat. By using this website, you agree to the following Terms & Conditions. Please read them carefully. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use this website.

1. About GoodCat

GoodCat is a cat-loving website that shares thoughtful guides, gift ideas, product suggestions, cat-related resources, and information about ways to support cats in need.

GoodCat does not currently sell products directly through this website. Some links on this site may take you to third-party retailers, affiliate partners, or other outside websites.

2. Affiliate Links and Compensation

Some pages on GoodCat may contain affiliate links. This means that if you click a link and make a purchase, GoodCat may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Affiliate commissions help support the cost of maintaining this website and may also help support GoodCat’s goal of donating a portion of future affiliate income to local rescue organizations helping cats in need.

We aim to share products, ideas, and resources that feel useful, thoughtful, or relevant for cat lovers. However, any purchase decision is your responsibility.

3. Third-Party Websites and Retailers

GoodCat may link to third-party websites, retailers, affiliate programs, rescue organizations, or other outside resources. These third-party sites are not controlled by GoodCat.

When you click a third-party link, you are leaving GoodCat and are subject to that third party’s own terms, policies, prices, shipping rules, return policies, privacy practices, and customer service procedures.

GoodCat is not responsible for:

  • third-party product quality,

  • product availability,

  • pricing changes,

  • shipping or delivery,

  • returns or refunds,

  • customer service issues,

  • website errors,

  • third-party content,

  • or any loss or damage related to your use of a third-party website.

Please review the third party’s policies before making a purchase.

4. Product Information and Recommendations

GoodCat may share product ideas, gift suggestions, cat-care supplies, or other recommendations. We try to provide helpful and accurate information, but we cannot guarantee that any product, service, price, description, availability, or retailer information will always be complete, current, or error-free.

Product details may change without notice. Always verify important information directly with the retailer or manufacturer before purchasing.

GoodCat does not guarantee that any product will meet your needs, your cat’s needs, or your expectations.

5. No Veterinary or Medical Advice

The content on GoodCat is for general informational and educational purposes only. It is not veterinary, medical, behavioral, legal, or professional advice.

If you have concerns about your cat’s health, safety, behavior, diet, medication, symptoms, or wellbeing, please contact a licensed veterinarian or qualified professional.

Never delay seeking professional veterinary care because of something you read on this website.

6. Shelter Support and Donations

GoodCat was created with the hope of helping cats in need. As GoodCat grows, our goal is to donate a portion of affiliate income to local rescue organizations and shelters.

Any shelter-support statements on this website are made in good faith, but they should not be understood as a guarantee of a specific donation amount, donation schedule, or charitable contribution from any particular purchase unless clearly stated.

GoodCat is not currently representing itself as a nonprofit organization, charity, or tax-exempt organization.
