Sources and product evidence

Official manufacturer pages and manuals establish model specifications, assembly, cleaning methods and compatible accessories. Retailer listings help identify the exact item being offered. We keep these roles separate: an attractive listing is not proof of suitability.

For cat behaviour and household resources, we use established sources such as Cats Protection. We link to relevant guidance so you can read its context. Product marketing about health is not treated as veterinary evidence.

What an image tells you

Product photographs are supplied through Amazon's authorised product API. A returned photograph confirms an image is available for an identifier; it does not establish the current seller, stock or every specification. Check the selected option at the retailer before ordering.

Home scenes show possible arrangements of furniture and everyday equipment. They are separate from the photographs of the exact products linked in our recommendations.

Where uncertainty matters

We avoid universal claims about load ratings, cooling time or behaviour. We state limits where they change a purchase decision. If a manufacturer's information is inconsistent, we omit the disputed figure and seek clearer evidence before recommending on that basis.
