Advertising and affiliate disclosure

How CatLives may be funded while keeping editorial decisions independent.

Last updated: 15 October 2026

Current commercial status

CatLives uses selected affiliate links through the Awin network. Current approved partners used on the site are KatKin, Your Pet Nutrition UK and Omlet UK. CatLives does not currently load Google AdSense adverts.

Affiliate links

If you follow a clearly labelled affiliate link and buy something, CatLives may receive a commission without increasing the price you pay. The retailer records the referral through Awin and handles the purchase, delivery, returns and payment information.

Affiliate links are marked near the recommendation and encoded with CatLives publisher ID 2608488. They open the partner’s website in a new tab.

How picks stay independent

  • Products are selected against published criteria before links are added.
  • Commission does not determine inclusion or position.
  • Commercial relationships do not guarantee positive coverage.
  • Unless a page says otherwise, product guides use published specifications rather than hands-on testing.
  • A partner can be removed from a guide when it no longer meets the page’s criteria.

Display advertising

An advert appearing on CatLives will not be a recommendation. Advertisers will not decide what we publish or influence our conclusions.

Breeders, insurance and sponsorship

CatLives does not accept payment to list breeders. Insurance information is general and does not rank or recommend policies. Any paid content will be labelled as sponsored at the top.
